haha i didnt mean shredding in snow chris. that would be WAY to easy/unorginal. who the fuck do you take me for?

or if we stole part of his idea, like....oh man! just got a good idea. i'll post it below with a master list of potential ideas.

when we say who the video is featuring we do intros, kind of like the ones we did last time, except

but it WOULD be funny if we put a random sequence in the middle the crew doing something stupid in or with snow, preferably somehow footbag related. like build a giant 32 out of snow (im talkin basketball sized) and try to play with it, or something.

at least having one song at least distantly related to christmas/winter would be nice as well, and if we pick a funny one we could do something in the video that relates to the song.

IDEAS FOR THE VIDEO
- do the player introductions with the person being introduced front and center stringing, with everyone else standing off camera, armed with a snowball each. at the precise moment, midstring, everyone throws their snowballs at the person playing footbag and they try to keep playing. it would be even cooler if right after that, the video stops and goes in reverse until right before the snowballs hit or something like that. if we do this, i would TOTALLY do it shirtless.

Kicked for an hour today.

Not gonna lie, got a little frustrated.

But got my PengBag in the mail this week, so I'm going to practice with only that bag.

Trying to put in at least an hour each day now.

Don't want to suck anymore.

awesome. its when you get that motivation that you start getting good really fast. just take your time, and everytime you drop, think about why you may have dropped. and if you're trying to do a move on your weak side that you can do well on your strong side, do it on your strong side and watch exactly how that leg does the motion, and try to copy it with your flip.

i fucked my eye up somehow. im on webmd right now trying to figure out whats wrong with it.

Maybe its because u leave ur contacts in for mad long then put them in ur mouth to moisten them then put them back in... J/k its not like that ever happened to u or ne thing... but I'm so amped for this vid and ur ideas sound choice pete.

EDIT... Pete remember the idea u had like the ill minute ago.. Att he river remember. That would sick. It involved throwing the bag in the air.

Two words for this next video.

SLOW MOTION (changes from real time to slow during strings)

Sick

whoa bustin out the big guns a bit there, arent we?

yeah i dunno if we'll do that intro with the tossing the bag up for the next person for this video because it would be a little too long for this video, since it already should have the typical music box/small house in a blizzard christmas calender video introduction. you know the one. and i want to limit this video to maybe 5 minutes tops.

im also not sure about my idea anymore either. i cant picture a way to make it really smooth. well i'm pretty much just going to leave it up to kevins good judgement. but obviously everyone still throw out ideas for the video and for the soundtrack/songs.

i woke up last night at 3:00 in the morning with my eye burning and extremely sensitive to light (like, i couldnt look at a dim light, with my eyes closed. that sensitive) and wound up in the ER last night from 3:30 AM until like 12:30 this morning. i cant wear a contact in that eye for at least a week or so. they still dont totally know whats wrong with it other than that its massively inflamed. it actually feels a lot better now, but its still clearly fucked.

and espn shop sent me the wrong fucking shoes. they sent me g6 II's instead of g6 III's. apparently i'll have the right ones no later than monday...

so much for fucking 2-3 days express shipping that i paid like 12-15 bucks for...

do i sound like im in a bad mood?

slapdash21 · Post by **slapdash21** » 06 Dec 2007 13:44

with no contacts, one eye blurry as hell from this ointment medication, and my old black lavers:

schmoe>smear bsos

spyro whirling inside

ps mirage>atomsmasher bs

oh and pixie dada, first try son

Christopholes · Post by **Christopholes** » 06 Dec 2007 14:01

Damn pete that shit sucks... are you gonna be able to play saturday.

EDIT!!! Spyro whirling inside is siiiiick dude.

slapdash21 · Post by **slapdash21** » 07 Dec 2007 16:25

i dunno how much im going to be kicking tomorrow.
im not getting my new g units until monday (FUCK ESPNSTOREDOTCOM), i cant see out of one eye, and i have a side job i have to do at forest hills at 1:00. after that i might come by at like 2:0 to chill or film or whatever, but i doubt i'll kick much, and it will be in rods if i do.

Christopholes · Post by **Christopholes** » 07 Dec 2007 16:44

I'm not gonna b at Nu till about 230 either cuz I have band practice. And I feel kinda like shit but I'm still gonna play a lil.
Sooo what's gonna come of this Xmas calender vid.

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 07 Dec 2007 17:53

dude I can't believe you did spyro whiz. I was just thinking about that the other day and how it should be called whizard or something retarded like that. Soo props. Schmoe > smear bsos is pretty sweet, but almost seems a little easy for you if I may be so bold as to say, sir. And you have black lavers - that's sweet. So did I.

Andromidas · Post by **Andromidas** » 08 Dec 2007 07:06

I guess I'll get there at 2:30 then too. Hope I can find the place again!

Fran and Doug, are you guys getting there around then or sooner?

Andromidas · Post by **Andromidas** » 08 Dec 2007 16:58

Thanx for featuring me in the trailer.

Ha, but yea those filming techniques make it look really really cool. I just watched that youtube snippet like 10 times. I didnt know I could look like I was actually good at footbag.

Cant wait to see the finished product man, I can already tell its gonna be beyond sick.

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 08 Dec 2007 21:23

that was amazing. I'm so excited you guys have momentum to make videos and stuff. It positively effects my mental state.

Christopholes · Post by **Christopholes** » 09 Dec 2007 06:49

That fuckin trailer is the SHIIIT i love the first shot where ur like goin towards danklas... its hotttt.

Andromidas · Post by **Andromidas** » 09 Dec 2007 06:56

I'm glad everyone likes what they see. I am going to try and keep that general look and feel for the editing. Except it will switch between everyone more often.

Now the mad professor will lock himself into his lab and begin CREATION
