SCHOOL !

Asmus · Post by **Asmus** » 22 Apr 2008 06:02

I won't be able to make to Berlin Summer Footbag Camp.
Instead I talked my mom into going to Berlin in the middle of the summer hollidays.
So I look forward to get some footbag action in Berlin this summer anyway.
I also really hope Mr. Mosher have moved there by then so we can hang.

Played outside again today. (3 days in a row!)
Played really well and got some good highlights:
- Swirl > Osis [bs]
- Osis > Swirl [bs]
- Bubba first try [bs]
- Rev Whirl > Osis [rpt]
- Butterfly > Swirl [rpt]
- Same Osis > Pdx Mirage [rpt] > run with Butter > Pdx Mirage [rpt]
- Far Symp Rev Whirl [b2b] > Handcatch > Far Symp Rev Whirl [b2b] starting on other side.
- Pixie Legover > Parkwalk > Pdx Mirage [rpt]

FOOTBAG!

nice ! tell me everything about frantic please

mc · Post by mc » 23 Apr 2008 10:30

hey, way to flick that pixie around on your frantic. I think it was there, and I also think you could get it cleaner. That first string with symp whirl bs and all that other stuff was great. it was fun to see you stringing and hitting cool tricks!

Hey Asmus.

Thanks for checking out my blog and noticing my footbag milestones. Also, thanks for the compliments on my bags.

I really enjoy reading some of your posts and always look forward to your blog. I haven't had a chance to check out your latest vid yet, but I am sure I will be impressed. And great work with your Shambles project.

Take care and shred hard.

Andrew

goede het spelen asmus!

I made you a pm.

Asmus · Post by **Asmus** » 24 Apr 2008 04:47

Rory: Mange tak. I have answered you PM.

Andrew: No problem Andrew. And thanks for liking my blog. I like it when people like it.

Dazza: About Frantic - Keep your feet close, think it as a split move not as one motion. Do pixie fast as hell and raise your knee alot on the quantum.

Matt: Thanks aloooot..

Played for 30 minutes today - That makes it 5 days in a row!
All I did was schooling bascis.
Here is what I did, continuing to count from where I dropped:
Mirage x 15 bs
SS Mirage x 20
Legover x 30
Illusion x 10 bs
Pickup x 20
Infinity x 20
Osis x 20
Clipper x 40
SS Clipper x 20 bs
ATW in > ATW out x 10 bs
I don't think I have ever schooled that seriously.
I hope to be able to do it like every other session or so.
That should get my titless really solid pretty fast.
Thanks to Anz for coming up with parts of that list.

FOOTBAG!

yeeeeeesss I liked this video a lot! We need more like it! And more of you doing dumb/fun things on your skateboard since that was funny that one time. But keep to a minimum since you don't want to upset the fundamentalist footbaggers here. God knows you'll be flamed for including an acid drop from a chair in the middle of SOME RAD SHRED!!!!!!!!111111111

anyway it was really a solid video and I'm impressed with the frantic set, but not really. You rock the quantum like you were a heavy metal band playing for a crowd of old ladies who thought they were going to a How to Crochet Your Great Grandson a Pair of Socks and Keep it Fresh and Exciting! (as taught by Waylon (JK WAYLON!!!!!!))

Hahahaha great Pat.

Actually my quantum has been a bitch lately. Frantic is ok but
Tripwalk has become really hard all of a sudden. What a bitch.

BTW. I look forward to a new video by you.

I played again today. That makes it 6 days. I'm pleased with
that. I won't play again before monday.

The session was ok. No real highlights but a couple of runs I
was pleased with. It was kinda hard to play inside after
playing outside for the past 5 days.

Party with the 'ole boarding school tomorrow. Gonna be pretty
rad!!

I look so much forward to this movie! About street art and
contemporary culture. It looks wicked sick.

Asmus · Post by **Asmus** » 26 Apr 2008 06:43

This was done by one of my favorite comic book artists, Jim Woodring, google him or something.

Today has been a really good day.

First I had the first real test of the year. I had to defend a synopsis I wrote about Chile from 1970 - 1973.
The synopsis should include alot about various methods in science mainly the method in history (source criticism).
The method in social studies which was basicly analysis of some diagrams and then text analysis of some chillean litterature in spanish.
I really had no expectations but I got an A+ so that's awesome!

After that I got home and watched the movie "It's All Gone Pete Tong".
It's a mockumentary about an english dj in Ibiza.
The main character is played by the same guy playing Mike Strutter.
Lise Thygesen suggested it to me and I found it really really good.
Check the trailer here: http://www.itsallgonepetetong.com/
If you like any of these things you should check it out:
dj'ing, partying, laughing, girls, indie films, comedies and mockumentaries.
Any of you seen it?

After that I played some hacky. I sucked. Out of balance and crappy.
I got a couple of highlights but fuck sharing that shit.

Later I gonna watch Chelsea - Liverpool in the Champions League and probably draw a bunch.

Good vibrations to you.

Oh shit, I gotta make this the song of the day:

Wowh they really knew how to make music vids back then!!!

Congrats on your A+. Always knew you were a smart-kid!

Bother though that you suck at hacky. But I guess that's all right, cause I like the way you play freestyle footbag

Asmus · Post by **Asmus** » 03 May 2008 05:47

Hey Matthias.
I am happy to see that you check my blog. Even if it was just for once.
If you like Woodring you should check out Vaugh Bode. I like him even more.
Trippy as hell aswell.
I don't know when I will be in Berlin. I will PM/send a mail as soon as I know.

Been playing some GTA4. It's really good. No surprise.
Saw Iron Man the other day. Worst movie ever.

I am motherboard company:

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 03 May 2008 08:00

I thought it was the best marvel movie yet. By far!
