Hahaha, that laugh is prime.

Props!

:D Great clip! props on your first ripstein!

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 09 Oct 2010 09:08

Thanks guys haha I creeped myself out a little with the laugh, I must admit. The ripstein is a little thin though, I'll get better ones on tape soon.

I had the best session of my life with Bob last night. We were both so on.

Highlights:

spinning swirl x2

double spinning toe

so so so close to double spinning clipper, I will have this trick in a week's time

sole rev-up

footed vortex

gyro double legover

some flipside spinning

some flipside swirls & flipside rev. swirls

Some really really nice strings, some of the best I've seen myself do

some sweet spinning ducking

smear

some spitfires

some snapdragons

drifters felt very easy-going (hit 'em both sides)

starting to be able to do other things out of drifter instead of just spinning (i.e. whirls, ducking, etc..)

some sweet DLO's

some consecutive flapper kicks

some spinningflying ducking stuff

ripstein was a fail in this session, I came close one time, but no cigar. I plan on studying Tricks of The Trade II, J. Schneider's part and really analyzing how he does ripstein. Matt Cross told me my crank and my double dex is there I just need to really pull the bag closer to me to get a clean dex. Will be working on this

As you can tell, a wide variety of tricks. I was so pleased. For once, I didn't feel THAT miniscule compared to Bob. He still kicks way more ass that I do, but it was cool that we both were hitting hard tricks.

Bob said I inspired him to put sole stalls in his game! That felt way cool to hear. Can't wait to see him hit some. Going to try to shred with Bob every Friday. I was also quite pleased to see a huge improvement in Bob's game. He was hitting some really dense strings and a good damn handful of new tricks. There were props written all over this session on both of our parts.

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 09 Oct 2010 10:03

Props on the highlights. Nice stuff, specially spin swirlx2

Can you put one spinning swirl, or x2 in a small video? would be cool to check it out.

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 09 Oct 2010 15:53

Yeah man I'll definitely try to hit one on a video for you. Next time I get to play, which should be tomorrow(?) I hope.

zachatree · Post by **zachatree** » 09 Oct 2010 16:30

Sweet nick I went fishing insteed of coming to play. At least I cought a 30+. I wil shred with you guys next friday. Maybe I'll come play in pvill tomorrow night. Ill get in touch with you an see what time works best. Can't wait to shred!

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 10 Oct 2010 10:54

Right on dude, we'll def. be kicking this week, but after wednesday, because I have a lot of stuff to do in the first few days.

Kljopa: I taped a clean spinning swirl for you, I'll upload it soon

Just had a "Just got off of work and hate everything, so I wanna kick" session:

Highlights:

SINGULARITY!!! (Whirling xdb sole)

spinning swirls

Spinning whirl!

came close to gyro datw

a nice string I got on tape

came close to double spinning clipper (like I said, in a week's time)

Shredding with Corey Rich soon, real stoked since we both like to use wacky tricks and unusual surfaces in our shred.

Jokse · Post by **Jokse** » 10 Oct 2010 12:51

Props for spinning tricks!

Just curious, what do you mean with gyro datw? toe set gyro double pickup?

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 10 Oct 2010 15:12

clipper spinning (without planting setting foot), in-out, in-out dex, same toe

I might have screwed the name up. If so, please feel free to correct me. Thanks

zachatree · Post by **zachatree** » 10 Oct 2010 18:57

is the first dex the stetting foot or op? is this symp?

Jokse · Post by **Jokse** » 10 Oct 2010 19:38

Gyro Double Pickup. Cool trick, haven't yet hit it myself. props!!

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 11 Oct 2010 19:52

Yeah, gyro double pickup, that's it

My bad, and no, Zach, it's not symposium. That would be too gnarly!

mc · Post by mc » 11 Oct 2010 20:49

yo dude, singularity is symposium.

props on spinning whirl. I'm sure you'll get the spinning dbl pickup in no time!

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 12 Oct 2010 12:04

Shit! I keep fudging trick names up

I feel like such a fish stick. But on the other hand, learn through mistakes. And thanks Matt, I really hope I will soon.

So yesterday was AWESOME to say the least. Zach and I kicked a little bit, nothing special, just a nice shred session. Our friend Bailey has always played hacky sack, and she asked to kick with us the other day, so she did and HOLY SHIT... she has obnoxiously flexible legs. SHE HITS DRAGONS. FLAWLESS DRAGONS. LIKE WITH NO EFFORT. WTF.... she was using some crappy athletic Nike shox shoe and wasn't able to stall the bag too well, so with that in mind, Zach bought her a pair of Lavers. long story short... they fit, she loved them, she couldn't miss a toe stall bs she was hitting inside stall, strong side, and she was hitting DRAGONS AND FOOTING DRAGON SWIRLS!!! She loves footbag and wouldn't put the damn thing down. We're shredding in NJ tomorrow with Jon Schneider, Corey Rich, John Goode, and maybe some others... We're bringing her.

This is a short video I took last night with her hitting some dragons and toe stalls:
