you have quantums? Sweeet. So would floatation be kind of like a frantic set from the opposite toe? Even sicklier than an e-wok! Nice move. I'd like to see that hit - by anyone.

what else have you been up to during hibernation?

I've been writing my book. i'm only 1,700 words away from my wordcount goal (50,000) today is the last day of that. THen cmes finishing the story and editing.

i have been shreding just not as much.

spinning feels really fluent now.

oh floatation is like right toe set left quantum dex then right quantum dex while still airborne

in my original post i was talking about the set but i do also have the shoe

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 30 Nov 2007 09:03

word. Yeah man I meant the set. Pretty sure you've cleared it a number of times when we've played. Just cool you're using it now. Good luck with the rest of the book

thin or just bad?

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 01 Dec 2007 16:34

why the embarrassed face? DOD didn't look too bad. A little wacky on the second dex and doing them all the time like that might mess up your knees, but the > infinity > ripwalk was solid.

blurriest looked good. Not too thin I'd say either.

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 01 Dec 2007 17:04

oh, thank you patrick. you are always so supportive. i love how you say infinity>ripwalk looked good because your the only person that would ever say that. not that its bad it's just that you care.

who wants more video tomorrow?

The dod was a little the. Try to keep away from doing the 2nd dex rev whirl like.

The blurriest looked ok, try to attck the first dex faster.

perhaps I'm overly jovial a street hacky sack player. Perhaps. And come to think of it I'm not sure why I commented on infinity > ripwalk. I guess because I kind of wanted more than a single trick and seeing you hit something out of a DOD was cool.. And I may have been drinking coffee at the time. I get really happy when I drink coffee.

we're shredding over winter break. I'll be in LA for a while but there's two weeks or so afterwards where I'm free before I go back to school.

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 03 Dec 2007 16:54

i get 9 days off for winter break. hopefully we can do it.

i really hit it off with my paradons, DOD's, and pixie paradons tonight. i took the advice and did as best as i can. video coming soon.

The first paradon looked good. Try bending your support leg more on the catch, your landing to straight legged.

The pixie paradon was the. The dex's weren't really there, attack the first dex quicker. And, again, cushion the landing.

Post by **Zac Miley** » 03 Dec 2007 20:40

Weird form. Not bad, just weird.

I think you should cushion more as everybody else is saying, and widen out the second dex.

DTank126 · Post by **DTank126** » 03 Dec 2007 22:06

Hahaha, Idk if its the lighting or something, but after you catch the pixie paradon it llooks like you get this devious smile on your face, as if you have minions and theyre doing your bidding.... or maybe its a shadow, idk. Anywho, thats awesome that your getting into double dexing man. The 2nd dex is funny looking but I think its kinda cool, unique looking. Prolly not good if its hurting your leg though. Anywho, sorry for a kinda useless post.... Uh, dont do drugs.

Peace

Really?

serious:

i have a day off from school today (Snow) so i think i'll put some time into those clippers. bending my leg more in order to cushion the bag and not just let it hit my foot. correct?

the help is always nice. i'm getting a little ripped on though, i suppose i deserve it because what i'm doing has become a continual pattern.

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 04 Dec 2007 08:40

yeah I saw the smile too. Perhaps because dimmiest is a boss move. If you're getting ripped on, Ben, try holding forward on the control stick just before you hit the ground, it'll make you roll with the fall and you can turbo dash toward your opponent with a combo strike.

combo strikes ftw.

option A) attack the dex faster / keep the speed the same
option B) keep the attack the same (style) / speed up the double.

in either case I think you know what you have to do. Clean up the form a bit. Everything else will just come with practice and getting use to the second dex loopiness.
