Erik Chan, November 2010

Lacking in runs 'cause I'm old and still recovering from injury. Each time it seems to take longer. I guess that makes sense >_____<

Oh yeah. Those double downs are looking solid. The whirling reverse whirl really caught me by surprise.

We were outside the hotel at Worlds on the first day with Dylan Fry when we found that we're all the same age. Though I think Dylan was 28? I'm 28 now too. I think I'm still getting better too, but I keep losing things after injuries and sometimes I never get them back (or it seems to take forever..)

I like your style, and your double downs look great. Nice shred spot too.

Agree with everybody else that the down doubles are a great addition to your game, and look solid.

For some reason I liked the spin whip PS whip drill the best. And the random bling blangs.

Scott Bevier is 31, and he's still at the top of his game. I also played with Rippin a couple weeks ago, and he's still solid at 44(! 8O).

Sweet....liked the double downs.. Really like barfly>spin p mirage>paradon drill ( I will insert this into my shred). Nice rev swirl>swirl bs . reverse tomahawks look great.

By the way ....Im 29 and currently injured with a muscle and rib injury. Been out for two weeks now which is the longest healing has taken me in a while. I had just switched back to lavers and was working on rebuilding my game again.

Dont get frustrated, just heal when you get hurt, stay away from tricks that hurt you, and shred until your legs are so old that they dont work anymore.

Two weeks is nothing, though. I'm frequently injured for half-year periods, like, every second year-ish. So right when I get everything back I have to stop playing again :P

Also, thanks!
I think that was probably my biggest accomplishment in this video, even though it may not look the biggest. I've NEVER been able to regular swirl (and actually, they look the in that combo). I can reverse. So I'm trying to get that down, 'cause far symple swirls and blurry helixes and double down swirls would just be so much more fun if it wasn't complete luck every time! If I could do far swirls on command I would be so happy.
