Wow man, sounds like you've been hitting some good shit lately. Props on everything lately. You've been inspiring me a lot lately with a conversation we had a while ago about Pixies. You said one day you realized you had no flip pixie, so you decided to school them until they were good... Well, I've finally cracked down on them because I realized mine are junk, and I'm doing just what you told me. Keep shredding man... Glad you're still playing hard, considering you were thinking about quitting for bouldering a while ago. Glad you stayed with it. That's dedication. Take care dude. Peace.

Thanks for the comment man! It's much appreciated!

I'm glad the discussion we had about pixie help you in any way :). YIf you need advice on that trick i'm fairly sure i'm a good person to ask about that move :).

Yah i think i have been hitting some good stuff recently! I'm really happy about the combos i posted on the last post of last page. I think those are some kind of milestone for me! Now i need to repeat them hahaha!

Cant' wait to see you at any events man!!

Played a bit today.

I'm sooo exhausted with my job! Standing on skate several hours a day is hard for the legs :).

I hit few nice things. Lots of flip fairy, to school them a bit.

Spinning ps whirl 1st try ever. I might get closer to montage?

Next session on saturday!!

Sometimes, too much is like not enough.

for a long time, i prevented myself to do wall climbing because i wanted to do more footbag.

But then, i had no motivation for footbag anymore so i got back into wall climbing.

Right after that... i started to enjoy footbag muuuch more! Playing less. About 4 session of 1 hour per week. I'm actually progressing really well... I think my session are shorter, but much more productive. Also, the muscle i got from wall climbing totally help me with footbag.

So, that's the perfect worlds :). I'm happy haha!!

Yeah, thanks for that. The fearless links looked effortless and sharp. It was a cool unexpected surprise to learn you play to blues music. I need to try that. How are your flip nukes? Do you think you could get Rubberman II with some work?

Probably not.

I have never ever worked on nuke. Except few minutes this summer with Evan. Maybe if i work a bite on it i could give it a try, but it's not my priority right now :) Thx Kevin and Ken for the nice comment on the video :).

Yo Mat, video was awesome! Really liked the dense runs. Gryo and spinning is looking really good. I remember you used to have some trouble with them, but you can't tell that from this video. Props man.

Injured knee.

Doc told me to do not shred.

Doesn't seem super serious, but better to be safe then make it worst...

Hope to be fine for vegas jam! And to be able to shred a bit the days before to be in a good shape haha!

Hey guys.

I tried to play today for about 20 minutes. My knee still hurt. But i think it was better then before... I'll take few more weeks off. I don't expect to show up in a really good shape in vegas :(! Well... things like that happens to everybody hu?

Have a nice day!

So here are the results :

My both knee are anornmally flexible.

The one that actually hurt is sprained.

No idea when i'll be able to play again :).

Life is amazing, i'll just do something, and later on if my knees allow me to do so, well, i'll start playing footbag again :).

I'll be in Vegas anyway, probably hanging out with you guys, unless my knee recover faster then expected!

that's too bad - you're game was really starting to take off.

Great attitude though, I'm sure you'll be back into it eventually. Sprained knee doesn't sound good at all though :( ouch! Best of luck in the recovery.

Thx for being positive guys :)!

I hope my knee will be fine soon too.. It's feeling better then lat month. I'm now able to run without feeling so much pain. But i don't think i'm close to shred. Especially «whirl type» moves that hurt.

Hey guys (and girls).

Still no where close to shred. So it's basically confirm that i won't play in Vegas. Will have amazing time anyway :D!

I want to shred :S. Like... my mind want, my body want... but can't haha. At least i can do other sports that aren't so hard on my knee :)!
