In my closet to be exact. Someone also fell asleep in the non-closet closet outside my room.

I heard the story about Milan a lot too; so funny :D
I also liked hearing about how Vasek took Jim's cereal and just started eating it.

Oh yeah, and toe spinning and toe crossbody get paradox (if they're paradox moves, of course). Once toe is crossbody it is just "toe clipper".

Lol yeh the cereal story was funny as

As i just said to Rory who Pmd me about pdx, im just going off what has long been the Pdx 'rule' of sorts, which is clip set op component.
Perhaps the rules/definition need to be updated to reflect all the weird shit that ppl hit these days.

actually, the convention has always been that pdx is from xbody. So nuke can be from a dragon or xbody toe. And as somebody else pointed out, there is spinning pdx, which is pdx relative to the spin direction, and not setting surface.

Ive never heard of it being described as just 'from xbody'. But you know alot more than i do so im not going to say any more.
I never said i was right, just that the definition as i knew it wasnt clear.

I saw...

-Jonathan Haber's sweet ass routine.
-Rory Dawson as a car chick.
-a ton of ass stalls (directed at Matt Cross).
-two of Dan Ednie's amazing dropless routines.
-Kolo going nuts.
-a surprised Erik Chan at the airport. (There's a story behind this.)
-a pair of Quantums with Vasek's signature on it, worth $111 USD.
-Kevin Crowley's routine to Thriller
-a lot of stitchers.
-Henry Griese being silly.
-Tina's amazing shred.
-the godly Vasek - and his eating habits.
-the charming Dylan Fry at work (on and off the footbag court).
-amazing freestyle at Chez Mosh.
-Nick Landes' sick freestyle (just... WOW). Fairy symp swirling stepping just blew my mind.
-a lot of scenery at Terra Verde.
-a bunch of very cool freestylers.
-very awesome finals routines.
-very very impressive freestyle mixed doubles.
-David Clavens being inducted to BAP.
-Jim Penske just ripping it up against Jorden Moir and Vasek at Circle Comp Finals. Blown. Away.
-Cleaver at the airport as I was about to depart from Orlando on the last day.

I know I'm forgetting a lot of stuff. Worlds was just soooooooo good.

A lot of footbag events should be like Worlds this year, but I was told most of the time that this Worlds was pretty tamed. I'm saving up for next year's World's at Prague for sure. :)
