Very cool! Great control, and I love that first link particularly.

I bet you could get food-spender-food, too.

So since I hit my first beast I have been playing a lot. I am going to PSU, so that will be fun. I just got off the phone with Anotn, I am going to Kalamazoo on Sunday to play some Easter Egg Kick Bag. Maybe video?

For people who were not at Vegas Jam, you missed out. I hit the best combo I have ever done, food - gyro whirling swirl. This is how it made me feel

I went to the PSU Jam this weekend. I had so much fun. I cannot wait to go back. A big thanks to both Nathan and Nick, thanks for everything you guys did. Also thanks to anyone else that may have helped I was unaware of. 1 more shout of to Ivan for the awesome time lapse and getting comp footage together so quickly.

highlights
-epic 4 square game Saturday night
-meeting and shredding with John Goode finally
-shredding with my boy toolan again
-Boats being so fresh with everything (digging the cd)
-doug "dick" tank
-Trying to get used to Nathan's carpet
-waking up at 7am each day for no reason, then being awake for 2 hours alone
-Mike Angeski and Brandon Watts from Columbus, great seeing more Midwest talent coming up
-Anton winning circle! and hitting all kinds of new stuff
-watching 15 year old footage with John Schneider
-Nick and Nadia's red velvet cupcakes
-Nathan being an awesome host
-going the wrong way for ten minutes everywhere I went

Just an amazing time all together. Thanks again to everyone who was the there! Lets have another one soon. I would totally make the drive again no hesitation.


I wish I would have played footbag better, but I could probably say that every time I leave a Jam.

Here is video from my prelim's circle where I played a lot better than in finals. The first run I had wasn't in the video. Nathan said it was 40-50 contacts, so it couldn't have been that bad =]

I'll check out that footage tonight. I watched the Finals footage, and everybody seemed very laid back.

Kinda curious...what did you watch? The old Tuan tapes of 97 Worlds? Sean Wingert tapes? I still have a soft spot in my heart for footage from that era. I still remember how badass I thought it all was.

I've been waiting to say this to you for a long time. Deep down in my stomach, with every inch of me, I pure, straight HATE you!



....But God dammit, do I respect you.

:wink:
Hey it was awesome catching up with this weekend and talking so much trash. Your game is seriously looking utterly fantastic. I hope you end up hosting a tourney this summer in MI. I'd love to come and kick, and toss a disc, and mess around in bumper cars.

Ken it was the Tuan tapes. I had not seen them before.

I have been trying to play at least 3 times a week.

Really enjoyed both videos, thanks for them! The last drill in the second video really impressed me, as did the fearless drill in the first vid. Have you hit 10 fearless?

And after watching the second vid, I HAVE to make this challenge: vortex-mobius rpt. I know you can do it, even if its hard as balls.

Ken: That was my first time hitting vortex - mobius on either side. So the rpt might take me a bit. I did bsos the combo though. A step closer.

I played a lot this week. I played Monday-Friday about 1.5-2 hours each day. I have video from monday and tuesday, but its nothing special.
Monday Tuesday and Wednesday where all solo sessions. But Thursday I played footbag with 2 newer players. They are both seniors in high school and like about 20 miles from me. Both have good starts just need to practice flip more, and get some help pointing them in the right direction. I will be happy to do that. Friday I drove to Ann Arbor and kicked with Anton, and Mikey Etlinger (sp?). Mikey played with Anton at Western Michigan University but now lives in New York and plays with NYFA. We are claiming Mikey as Michigan (that brings us to 7 active), even if he lives in NY now.

Highlights from the week.
18 unique pixie shuffle
open near clip - merkon - open far clip - merkon - rpt - whirl - merkon - rpt - near whirl - gyro legover - rpt - drifter - drifter - gyro mirage - rpt - whirl war - drop on last contact of swirl war
spin whirl - ps whirl - rpt lots of times
mobius - pdx blender - rpt
vortex - mobius bsos
all double downs in 1 run, except I dropped on last DDD
blur - dimwalk - rpt - blizzard - dimwalk - rpt - schmoe - dimwalk - rpt
ps whirl - ripwalk bsos
spin whirl - ps whirl - rpt - tomahawk - tomaDROP
alpine whirlygig (not new, but haven't done it in at least a year)
mullet bsos
stepping blender - gyro whirl - spinning blender
scorpions tail bsos
PLO - Magellan - rpt 12 contacts
atomic torque bs (new)
spinning osis x 17
stepping blender - run with stepping whirl - stepping blender for bsos
whirlygig - whirlwind - spinning blender (2nd beast!)

Work is really busy next week. So I will be lucky it I get to play more than twice. Glad I played so much this week.

Yo dude, I've been really bad at the whole reading footblogs thing, so I finally got caught up.

First of all, it was great to meet you. You're a cool guy (even if my computer tells me you like dragonforce).

Second, awesome highlights from those videos and that list. 18 pixie shuffle? bad at pixie, huh?

But yeah, keep it up!
