Welcome to Colorado! I might be in Boulder Saturday. Lemme know if you're free at all.

Had my first session in Boulder today. Right outside my apartment building next to a skate park. Just drilled some basics
-89 inf
-152 osis
-61 duck clip
-24 duck butt
-34 drifter
Pretty exhausted after each of those. Trying to get back in shape so when I go hiking out here I can do 20 mile days and see as much of the Rockies as possible.
Playing with Ken (and maybe Pete Irish!!!) tomorrow. Hopefully we'll film.

Haven't played much lately. Not much to say, but I wanted to use my oh-so-popular blog as a way to promote my latest Pipenbag contest:

Thanks Erik.
I felt bad about my last non-post, so I threw a couple clips together after work today. this is from like a week ago during a 45 minute session.

Thanks, Nick.
Ken, thanks for hosting me this weekend. I had a great time.
So man, I feel stupid right now. I never checked footbag.org club listings when I moved to Boulder and totally missed that there was a local club listed. After firing off an email to all the members, nearly all replied, and it turns out there is a guy in Boulder who still kicks, a guy in a nearby suburb, as well as third dude who recently moved to Denver. Damn! And they're all down to kick still. So yeah, remember the .org club listings...
Found a sweet covered spot to play in downtown Boulder, which was great for my session yesterday because it was like 100 degrees out. Played for maybe 45 minutes.
Recent highlights:
-pixie everything x2 (32 contacts)
-step ss ill>smoke>bliz>smoke>rpt
-5 minutes dropless warm-up with my demo bag:

Also want to quickly note that I am continuing the "teach toe stalls" idea through a promo sale for my footbags. You can get up to $10 off a footbag by promoting the sport. Read here.

Re: Nathan
It's been a while, Mr. Blog.
I'm back in State College after a highly enjoyable summer working for BACKPACKER Magazine in Boulder, CO. It's kinda funny that the whole time I was working in the office, I was totally unpaid, and now that I've left they are allowed to pay me, so I've been doing some freelance work. Which is great, because I literally go hiking and get $$$$ for it.
This year I'm living with Nick Pooplini and Ivan I in an apartment. It's a lot of fun and totally beats living at home. We're at work on some cool things and have been in talks with some local businesses about a footbag tournament that would be very different and far more awesome than most tournaments you've ever been to. So keep your eyes peeled for when we announce what's going down.
Last week I did a short demo at an Open Mic. My friend beatboxed, and Ivan filmed, check it out:

Re: Nathan
Great Job Man.....I really enjoyed the presentation. NIce dropless by the way! the beat box was cool too....I hope you get some new members
SHRED HARD!
Re: Nathan
Good job promoting your club. Also, good trick selection for presenting to the public. It was funny hearing some of the reactions from the crowd.
When do you think your tournament would happen?
Stoked to see you this weekend in NYC. I'll bring you $ for the bags I sold, as well as the remaining bags too.

Re: Nathan
That was by far the WORST presentation of footbag I've ever seen. You didn't mention my name ONCE. If anything people will probably drop out of your club now.
Also who was that local yokel heckling you on stage? I think he called you a sumo wrestler at one point? I guess I can see the resemblance....

As the person who filmed this, I pretty much went home and decided that I no-longer want to be a part of PSU footbag, as a direct result of Nathan not mentioning Doug's name. shit. my life sucks now.
