solo session today, I think I decided to work whirr, I think

Reid · Post by **Reid** » 29 Jan 2008 06:10

solo session again lastnight. Probably one of the best sessions I've had in a while. Dexes were feeling easy, and I felt loose and good. Barflys were controlled and I could step out of them and spin out of them. Good session.

Good kicking, paisanos! Thanks for having us & I'll see you at the next UIUC jam for sure.

Thanks for all the cheese. Expect another post in the next 1 to 2 weeks, when I am able to crap again.

Freddy! Nathan! Don't really know where to post this so I'll just do it in our blog:

Thanks for coming out guys, it was great hangin'/shreddin' with you two. Sorry I was so ass-backwards busy all weekend with all kinds of shit, but it was great seeing you and I hope you both come back again to visit soon.

My favorite highlights of yours from what I remember would be... hmmm...

Nathan

symposium mirage>dbl atw and the long tiltless toe runs

Freddy

your frequent BSOS dives, and sweet pdx whirls

Later!

I've been shredding a couple days a week for a few weeks now and as a result my game is probably as good as its ever been.

I can hit enterrage now on both sides
I've been working on spinning out of pdx whirls consistently
I hit some blenders the other day on both sides. Feel pretty good
Lots of controled zooming
Legbeaters both sides, consistent, some atom smashers too
Stepping whirls
Mostly just long fluid runs. Not many 5's, mostly just ineresting runs of 3's and 4's

Hopefully I'll shred today

Session Today with Reid. He hit some nice flurries, barroque on both sides I believe, maybe s'mother stuff.

I hit/worked:

vortex>symp. whirl BSOS

torques for the first time in a while

pdx whirl>pdx drifter>repeat first try

more blenders

spinning pdx whirl>spinning clipper BSOS in the middle of a longer string

vortex>reverse swirl BS

flipside montage (just for Reid's sake, I'll admit that this took many attempts)

A lot of arrows for nothing particularly exciting but nevertheless I have a lot of control in my shred right now. Oh I also hit blurry drifters. Later.

Reid · Post by **Reid** » 10 Mar 2008 16:44

solo session today. Worked whirl. Stepping ducking. Vortex( Run with two each side). JaniWalker, barroque. whirling swirl. Peace.

Where is Rockey?

Reid · Post by **Reid** » 11 Mar 2008 08:11

Will is in ecuador, but i think he might be coming back for this spring break of ours next week.

Not-so-ripped Warrior · Post by **Not-so-ripped Warrior** » 11 Mar 2008 21:20

Session today. Reid was on. I think he's perma-warm.

I was kinda off maybe but still had some nice runs:

One run with blurry whirl BSOS and vortex BSOS I think

One run with gyro dbl legover BSOS and pdx whirl BSOS and fog on one side

Finally to end the session I went for ducking pdx drifters for the first time and hit some nice ones on both sides after only a couple attempts... I could honestly see the jealousy pouring out of Reid's eyes hehehe....

Peeeace

Reid · Post by **Reid** » 13 Mar 2008 09:28

that wasn't jealousy, that was determination.

Frank_Sinatra · Post by **Frank_Sinatra** » 13 Mar 2008 14:11

Eric, if it makes you feel any better, jealousy is pouring out of my eyes. Like a syrup of tears.

Not-so-ripped Warrior · Post by **Not-so-ripped Warrior** » 14 Mar 2008 18:40

Yes, it does.

Also I made a couple mistakes in those highlights. The "blurry whirl BSOS" should have read "blurry whirl>rev swirl BSOS" and also the "pdx whirl BSOS" should have read "pdx whirl>spinning clipper BSOS" so yeah...!

No session today for me. Reid's been shredding non-stop though...

Reid · Post by **Reid** » 14 Mar 2008 21:48

midnight solo session, after some champions league inspiration. Pretty much worked some concepts I'm not as good as I'd like to be at. But completely different from those i was able to successfully bsos barfly>flurry.

Hopefully session with eric tomorrow, maybe with CIC and peeps. Coordinate. Peace.
