As much as I love it here in Missoula, it's not where I'm supposed to be right now. I was on my way up to Whitefish, MT last night to catch a train when my friend's car broke down in a thunderstorm. Needless to say I missed my train and we had to drive back to Missoula at 40 mph to keep his car from overheating.
I'm currently at the University killing time until I get on a greyhound to Spokane where I'll get on a train to Bingen, WA, where I'll get picked up to go to Boise. Then I get my crew and go back up to Sandpoint to start work. Traveling is pretty fun, but when shit falls through and you're on a schedule things can get pretty fucking stressful. I hope to god I can make it onto this bus and into Spokane on time. The bus is overbooked and I have no backup plan at this point.
Kickin' it here in Missoula has been great, but if I had known this was how it was going to go down, I would have stayed in Eugene. A big thanks go out to Evan, Emily and Tom for putting up with my shit. I know it stinks.

I've been all about zero and single dexes lately so I had tons of energy left over. It's a lot less tiring to duck a clipper than to hit flurricane byrin :wink:

I'm stroked for today. I'm going out to Couer d' Alene to go shred with the guys out there. It's always funny because they act like I'm super good, when I'm not. :D

Maybe Boone Penske might show up, that would be sweet. He is a great guy. One of the guys, Josh Bright, said there might be a camera down there filming us. Like, a $4000 HD crazy ass camera. I'm make sure to show off. :wink:

Well, shredding in CDA was pretty sweet. I met this guy, I forget his name now, who filmed us playing at the circle. The camera was a very nice profession hd camera. I wish I had still had one. GODDAMN CANADIANS!

I think I did pretty well. I hit some long runs, ranging from 20-40 contacts. tiltless, guiltless, tripless, fearless, I was feeling good. He interviewed me about footbag though, which caught me a little off guard. I just ended up rambling about the adds system and competition formats and how "sweet they were" I felt like a doosh when he just cut me of and said, "Good". I hope he doesn't use any of that footage in the video he makes. :oops:


I have an uber migraine. Ouch.

Oh shut up doosh, you're the only reason I still play footbag anymore. Seriously. I think everyone goes through that phase. Shit, I've been going through it for over a year. Wait, I don't know what I'm talking about. That's why I take my reducto pillz.

I played the keyboard for 7 hours yesterday. Super fun. I've been wasting money on shrooms lately out of sheer boredom. I feel goofy.

By the way, I left my only jacket and yoyo in missoula. Fuckers.

Your jacket is in my vehicle. That jacket is infamous for getting left in missoula.

Went to my buddy's funeral on saturday morning. You could tell that he touched many lives by the sheer number of people that attended. The ceremony was very nice and centered on celebrating his life instead of mourning a loss.

My girlfriend and I basically spent three straight days drinking trying to deal with it.

Made myself play yesterday because worlds is coming up. Hit some new tricks:

inspired by HennyG:
-flip double pickup
-Alpine Atomsmasher

for fun:
-pogo blurriest
-pogo blurry torque
-pogo blurry voodoo




Here are some old ridiculous laws that never went through the process of getting erased:

Montana
• It is a felony for a wife to open her husband's mail.
• It is illegal to have a sheep in the cab of your truck without a chaperone.
• Balls may not be thrown within the city limits.
• It is a misdemeanor to show movies that depict acts of felonious crime in Montana.
• Another law in Helena, Montana, mandates that a woman can't dance on a table in a saloon or bar unless she has on at least three pounds, two ounces of clothing.
• Bozeman has a law that bans all sexual activity between members of the opposite sex in the front yard of a home after sundown -- if they're nude.
• Seven or more Indians are considered a raiding or war party and it is legal to shoot them.
• It is illegal for a man and a woman to have sex in any other position other than missionary style.
In Montana, it is illegal for married women to go fishing alone on Sundays, and illegal for unmarried women to fish alone at all.
• It is a misdemeanor to show movies that depict acts of felonious crime.
• It is a felony for a wife to open her husband's mail.
• It is illegal to have a sheep in the cab of your truck without a chaperone.
• Excelsior Springs: Balls may not be thrown within the city limits.
• Helena: No item may be thrown across a street.
• Salisbury: Pop bottles are not to be thrown on the ground.
• Whitehall: It is illegal to operate a vehicle with ice picks attached to the wheels.

yeah definitely, spin whirl rake>toe blur is pretty sick. I'm going to start making some possible shred30s for you right now. :wink:

I decided to sesh after talking to ham, then talking to kevin. I hit some new stuff. Mostly worked on theory. Where to put my body for each move, how to plant my feet. All around good sesh. I learned a lot. The kick yourself in the ass tech for spinning works wonders, thanks Kevin. I just have this problem with not pivoting correctly with the other foot, which makes me lean over awkwardly making anything other than a clip difficult. I also have been thinking of tons of weird moves. I love them.

james: where are the blurs?

I'm proud to say that I made the worst coffee in the history of time today.

A co-worker didn't believe me. I had him take a sip and he immediately agreed :oops:

Like I said, put some blurs in, do what you like :wink: I just tried to make it as low impact as possible, aka no atomic/stepping shuffle, at the risk of dropping it. I know you can shuffle though, so do it! Mix and match it up. I'll write some more up with more options.


EDIT:

[starting from left clipper delay]

sidewalk(4)-ripwalk(4)-sidewalk(4)-ripwalk(4)-whirl(3)-p whirl(4)-whirl(3)-p whirl(4)-p mirage(3)-dimwalk(4)-blur(4)-dimwalk(4)-blur(4)-butter(3)-spinning clip(3)-gyro clip(3)-spinning clip(3)gyro clip(3)-infinity(3)-ducking clip(3)-ducking clip(3)-merkon(3)-symp. mirage(3)-plo(3)-plo(3)-magellan(3)-smear(3)-parkwalk(4)-ps whirl(5)

16 3s - 48 adds
10 4s - 40 adds
1 5s - 5 adds

28 contacts - 28 uniques - 96 adds

I think this one is pretty cake for you actually. There isn't even one *hard* link for you. Maybe only flip pixie, but that isn't even that weak anymore. I threw some butters in so you could get a small break in between combos.
