I played again today in gym course, and although it was only for like 45 minutes, I managed to do some good stuff.

Ripwalk 20x (working my stepping back where it should be)

Blurry Whirl> Pdx Whirling Swirl
Blurry Torque> Pdx Whirling Swirl

And 4-5 Flip Janiwalker which is especially cool, cause I never thought I would do those on flipside.

Thx Ken it's a cool drill and I'm gonna try and hit it, already got it on one side, but my flip gyro whirl is awkward...

Anyways we played yesterday with Tamás. It was nice and chilled session, we practiced Atomic Ducking, for we made a bet, that whoever hits it 1st will get a beer from the other

, but no luck for either of us just yet.

I managed to hit a few good tricks like Predator, and Quantum Whirl, also had a run with Locomotion, Motion Sickness both flipside.

Oh and I also hit Whirr with 2 bags.

So a good sunny session today.

I hit a few drills nothing new but stuff like: Parkwalk> Stepping same Eggbeater rpt.

BUT... on my second try I managed to hit Atomic Eggbeater, and it was fairly easy and according to Tamás, it looked good too... so last session's Atomic Ducking training paid off... aand I finally hit Alpine Legbeater for the first time!!!! And now Tamás owes me a beer!

had a short solo session today, probably the first one for more than a year...

Anyways I finally managed to hit Toe Blur back to back... after 11 years of playing footbag, well it's pretty lame I guess

Played again today... Wasn't anything special, a bit of schooling the basics, and quantums. All I managed to hit was Quantum Legover> Pixie Legover rpt. so yeah quantum doesn't come as easy as I wish...

Schooled stepping as well... Tried to hit 30 ripwalks, when around 20, my scumbag shoelace decided it was time to untie itself...

Didn't hit any new tricks though I came close to a few... like Ducking Pdx Torque both sides, but not quite there yet. But soon!

cheers!
