Today I bought baby blue spray paint

Painting My Rod's Baby blue +
Brocka mod+
analyzing Kevin Crowley's Osis=
osis>osis>osis>osis>osis>osis>osis>osis>osis>osis>osis.

yep. count em. eleven. like 5.5 + 5.5

I can say with confidence without wavering and without doubt and without a half-hearted confession, I UNDERSTAND OSIS!!!!!!!!!

they feel good, I can only think they look good, they are controlled, slow, set at a good height, praise the LORD!!! his name is JESUS!

Im about to step into the ring with the rest of you osis masters. I'll be in the B.O.P.

(no not butterfly osis paradox mirage) the BIG OSIS POSSE!!!

thanks to Lee Van Sickle, Kevin Crowley, Dylan Fry, Allen Hagget, and all you guys who helped me with this trick, verbally and visually!

THIS IS A HUGE TURNING POINT IN MY GAME!

lol, No one's ever analyzed my game for their benefit before. that's kind of cool.

You want me to make you a video of tons of consecutive osii?

other thoughts: spot the bag falling into your inside>rotate>freeze.

and I focus on cranking the ankle as hard as I can. Once you build strength and flexibility here, the brocka mod will no longer be necessary. It's a good thing to think about anytime you're doing a clipper trick. and think of what your toes are doing during that crank.

YES! I was really thinking about asking you, but I was too shy.

so, since its on the table now, Hey Kevin, would you make me a video of tons of consecutive osii?

and this new footbagger dude, AARON GRAFT (1st appearance) was asking me what vids to watch and I said Kevin Crowley 2 on youtube. and he watched and said, omg, that guy is SO SMOOTH! (tru dat)

and as for tonights footbag session:

BOP>BOP ( both sides )
and a consistent 8 or so consecutive osii

LOL!

you guys... funny.

FINE! I'll just do it myself.

have you guys ever seen the penelepoe skit on SNL?

I'll be like "yeah, I've done 223 consecutive osis, yeah, 300 osis, just a little more than 222, so Ive done just a little more than you have, so like, just 400 consecutive, like 1000 consecutives, so..pretty much just alot more than you have, so... "

butter>butter>butter>butter>osis>osis

these were some of my "on purpose" lines that I did, some other ones that were just unplanned freestyle was like alot of contacts, like, like, 20, like, not dropping, and just keep going, with three's and all, so, I guess, like, my game has improved alot.

Like

the strings.

Mad props on the improvement.

new tricks:

got some good progress today, my tiltless strings are super solid, and my guiltless strings are pretty tight.

first of all, some new stuff on my flip:

flip pixie ss mirage
flip parkwalk
flip dimwalk
flip smear

strings

flip pixie ss mirage>osis
sidewalk>string>flip sidewalk (bsos'd)(woot)
sidewalk>string>sidewalk>string>sidewalk>string>sidewalk>string>infinity>sidewalk>seal
spinning clip>osis

practice:

tap bs
tapping whirl yesterday.
paradon first try.
reverse whirl first try.
reverse whirl bs

notes: a clean stepping set requires the bag to come straight up and the body to step back and to the side, diagonally, or else the set will be crud and the continuation of the string will be out of control, or real unstylish, sloppy, pukey, barfy(don't mis-read "barfy" as barfly).

Osis is a standard trick for me now. it is great to look back and see that I sucked at it for a long time. It really is a great feeling to have confidence in it.

reverse whirl is SO easy.

tricks I'm looking into hitting sometime soon:

tapping paradon
paradon swirl
tapping blender
ripped warrior
nuclear set
whirling swirl
reverse whirling swirl
spinning butter
flip pixie whirl
tapping dlo
flip pixie dlo
paradox reverse whirl
smp reverse whirl
ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Hey Paul

the angle is horrible at first, but it changes

The Rhino · Post by **The Rhino** » 09 Oct 2007 02:53

that was off the hook. oh man, when I feel confident enough to do some footbag again, it is going to be so off the chain. on. and RafaÅ‚ Kaleta will have nothing on us G.
