and they are making quantum 3's in sz 13!!!!!!!
Hooray! Dude, we have basically like the same features, except I'm an inch taller than you and weigh 8 lbs less. We might even look the same (haha just kidding). You don't have back issues because of your height and lack of muscle, do you? Because I do :(


Race to 50 infinities? I don't even care about winning, but my infinities suck right now and I could use motivation. What's your record so far?

Mine's 14 so far.

My back is the only thing that ails me physically, no other problems.

So yeah, sounds good. I've read some of your stuff, and I think we're on a somewhat equal playing field. I don't write a lot of session highlights down in my blog because I forget to sometimes. So don't use that for reference, haha.

hitting 10 + fguiltless combos.... im learning how to transition from toe>clipper game and vice versa, instead of just toe or just clipper combos. throwing clippers into stepping stuff, then stepping into a legover or mirage is a good way to do this. i love footbag! im going to be coming to eugene next weekend..... yes!!!! yog is coming to. well, leave some comments, i am tryingn to hit 4 ripwqalks recently and meet gmoney's challenge of 50 infinities. oh snaps

went to eugene with yogan over the weekend, and met up with james. i always like playing with him, his style is cool. anywyas, i was a great session, got some cool stuff then and beforehand with just yogan.

atomsmasher b2b. yes.

eggplant>atomsmasher bs.

ripwalk>ripwalk>blur

blur bsos

sumo bs.

super clean symposium atomic sets.

close to dive>duck>rpt.

zulu clipper bs, zulu butterfly

stepping set felt reeeeaaallly good. high, clean, consistent, bothsided.

close to far swirls..... coolest looking thing ever. i was happy i got so close as i did.




i was very stoked about the nuclear sets. atomic is pretty natural for me, so i wanted to messa round with nuclear, its a similar motion. i threw it, and cleared it uptime for the first time ever, then three trys later hit sumo. sickly. then flipside. yes. ive totally forgotten about my race to 50 infinities with grant.... i will try it next time. i really want quantums. they are just too cool. i dont care about all the crap that gets said about them being flimsy, expensive, or toe boxes or soles being wrong..... the are a FOOTBAG SHOE. how cool is that? =] anyways, im happy with how im progressing. i rolled my ankle sort of badly on a paradon attempt. luckily, it was near the end of the session, after i hit all the good stuff. it should be better in a few days, not too bad. (there was a nice resounding *pop* however). well, thanks for reading if you did. goals:

-nuclear opp butterfly (matador?)
-beat ripwalk record (4)
-side>rip>rpt.
-dive>duck>rpt.
-far swirls
-improve whirls
-improve osis

messed around a bit today. i dug up my beaten-to-hell leather lavers that were in my closet just for fun. i actually like playing in them alot. they have good memories in them haha. it was great, i dint play long, but the session had a good vibe to it. i felt really comfortable with the bag, and things didnt seem to hard. i just flowed. my osis was great. i have the timing of spinning during one down pretty well now. pixie was great.... hit magellan>PLO>rpt>smear>guiltless string. that was sweet. ducks and dives felt clean as well... i had to stop becasue of a pain in my tailbone. (not from footbag... i skated last night, fell down hard. ouch) anywyas... im pretty happy right now. cant wait to make a video. keep your eyes peeled!
