ive done a short guiltless run at home as well
two bsos butterfly to paradox mirage, so 4 contact guiltless=]

you had some solid looking whirls today.
it is called an infinity if you hit it from the other butterfly.
the soo a 4 butterflies back to back is like a butterfly then 3 infinities.
today i hit fairy diving symp rev whirling rake as an adjusted request from marco live

Pick a trick and do it, really anything links from an osis.

Anyways, figuring out ripwalk now with how I should be turned and need to work on my set height a little bit more.

Whirling butterfly is coming cleaner, but not very consistent still and now working whirling sets flipside.

Sidewalk is very comfy bothsides, should probably move onto a stepping toe trick.

Regardless still missing my drive for footbag, I don't have the will to train when not with Stanford. Frankly to be honest I'm not sure if I'm even looking forward to doing any filming for footbag. Blah blah blah bitch bitch moan, see you guys Saturday.

The Compromise:

An well shot footbag short featuring our very own Szymon and Olaf! I enjoyed the camera angles, the tasteful intro sequence. The music was fun to have especially featuring The Hives - Tick Tick Boom.

Simply put it, the quality on the downloaded version was so nice I refused to release anything until I could match it. So crisp, and clean. I dunno just watch it already (especially if you haven't)

eric, those guys were incredibly clean, i love the style, was there a whirling swirl to ripstein in there?
and wonderful job with the editing, i love the following of the bag you did, great wide angle shots to

thanks for the advice but right now i think its all in the clipper, as they get better i find osis easier, but thanks for the advice i will get to it as soon as the osis drilling starts

I didn't film "The Compromise"

Should watch Dawn of the Shred sometime

for a similar quality, but much more shred.

7 or 8 infinities, more complicated runs, kinda
getting better at whirls

brianbear · Post by **brianbear** » 19 Jun 2010 22:05

boom boom boom stanford had a good session today.
my highlights were:
mobius-->gyro osis bs
rake-->smear BS
i also drilled a bunch of flip whirls (my flip p.whirls are crap) and had some good flip motion attempts.

thedudeman · Post by **thedudeman** » 20 Jun 2010 19:40

getting better at osis, still not consistent with it though
having a lot of trouble with spinning clipper i just cant seem to land it, i fixed my flip whirls a little
mostly right now i think im gunna go back to basics for a little bit, gunna concentrate on my flip toe because its been very weak lately, i cant seem to get it to behave for learning uptime dexes whatsoever, so its obviously weak, also gunna learn good toe flicks and work on my flip outside kick a little and back to back clippers of course

thedudeman · Post by **thedudeman** » 03 Jul 2010 16:36

landing spinning clipper, getting osis a bit better doing tricks out of it a bit more
did atomic set pretty good a couple times, did a rip walk and can stepping set BS, also getting close to landing a flip dyno and doing dynos on occasion on my strong side, think i figured out flip whirl issues to=D, but i need to work on:
ducking.
osis.
spinning.
atomic.
pixie.

went out with vasek to the city last night.
super epic drunken-ness. had a little beat box lesson on caltrain, followed by getting drunker and then finding the right club we were trying to get to!
it was 80's music and awesome, dancing all night!
Then we got seperated a few times when we left, and my phone was dead and it was just crazy!

up there with my super high outing for food in portland with penske and liz and sitting in a bar that had stopped serving food, but we thought they were still serving and sat there for such a long time, until we realized there was no food. This was followed by about a 30-minute adventure to taco belll.

22 tiltless today
15 mirage
15 legover
15 pickup
now all i gotta do is illusion, getting close to hitting it on my flip and generally hit it uncomfortably on my strong, so i think if i devote one 2 hour session to it ill hit it more frequently bsos

Hi guys,

Just a quick one to say it was great to have the opportunity to come along to your Tuesday session last week. I'm so impressed with you guys - especially those I've seen play before - you've all improved so much and are looking really good.

Thanks heaps, and special thanks to Steve for showing me some good tips.

dave and i has a session today in the driveway of the shred palace.
there was an incredible amount of variety in general, and dave was busting some really cool gyro toe stuff and fairy swirl stuff and finished with a 175 contact insanity string. highlight for me was tying dave in a race to gyro drifting rake, and void b2b for my second time.

thedudeman · Post by **thedudeman** » 28 Aug 2010 17:43

unfortunately i arrived to session right as dave left today, but i did 40 infinities which was cool, good session today nonetheless great to be back at stanford
