Cool trick I've experimented with a while ago that your new tricks reminded me of.
Gyro Blind Heel (or sole) Kick > Continue spin to something.
Like the freestyle footballers do. Try it it's really fun.

And props on all the new tricks.

C-fan,

thanks .....It is awesome to get inspiration from others. I feel lucky to have met so many different footbagers in a short amount of time. I have learned alot about the game and lots of inspiration.

Asmus, thanks, I really like the heel tricks and havent really spent alot of time doing them but now im in on learning them .

About 4 years ago David Clavens came to New Orleans and we got to shred...or at least he did ( I could barely do 10 contacts at the time) , also Jon came to town and we got to hang and shred ( this was a bit after Dave came in I think, but I finally found the footage.....hope you enjoy

Hey man, Nice footage with Daryl. Lots of cool stuff from both of you. I got some ideas from Daryl's heel tricks.

Also, its real cool to see the old Dave and Jon footage. Amazing to think that you got your start from just those 2. So sick. Can't wait to see some footage with stuff you learned from Daryl.

Nick and John.......guys....wish we were in a circle right now... ....hope everything is going well guys......also.......come to new orleans.


I havent check the computer as much due to nasty stomach virus which bit me and my entire household. Today was the first day walking out the house and did a couple of kicks and toe stalls just to do it.....

I am looking forward to the custom spike hybrid bag I ordered from Abshire....(picture soon) purple facile pents, black ammeretta hexes, blue facile half inch spikes. I enjoyed sessining witht he spiked bag nick had so I thought I would get one of my own.

I am deciding that I might go back to school to get a personal training certification and maybe one day have it work towards physical therapy or something else. I hope to start eating even more strictly and have health and fitness become a part of my life. Also looking forward to an additional stable income.

As far as footbag , my game means more to me now than ever . I will write on this more later but im about to go to my kids school and do daddy stuff. anyway....

Footbag goals until further notice 10-14-11
:arrow: a SOLID toe game
:arrow: a more overall focused, controlled, and intelligent game
:arrow: a standardized way of performing each trick that is effecent and consistent
:arrow: an overhaul of the tricks that need changing to be better for my body and cleanliness of the trick...is...whirl and barlfy.
:arrow: 10 set runs that I can lay down consistently
:arrow: juggling and new tricks

Great stuff dude. Props on everything, but especially... nope, nevermind, I can't single anything out. Everything is awesome. I have a challenge for you that I just thought up...

CHALLENGE!!!!!!!!

Hit as many consecutive Swirling Spinning Clippers as you can.

I think it would be so dope if you were eventually hitting stuff like Swirling Vortex> Swirling Spinning Butter> Swirling Gyro Mirage> string. Hellz yeah to that string.

Oh and as a side note... I know you can hit Swirling Pdx Torque.

I am super excited.....my six year old daughter Madeline picked up Nick Polini's footbag, put it on her jump...jumped up and stuck her butt out which resulted in her first official unusual surface...the back delay...she called it "the way back ". she can put in out her sole with her hand and balance but has yet to catch it there...... :wink: so the back delay is her first trick.....then she put it on her head and jumped up and down.....I flipped and told her I would give her five bucks to so it again on camera...

here is da footage
