got midstring bet wetter 2days in a row :D

also tonight got some challenges from Rory that I completed
swirl > rev swirl > diving clip > whirl > reverse whirl > near down > near symple down > near symple switch > late gyro toe
gyro diving clip-gyro diving clip - gyro mixer (both sides)
shut near rake-diving pickup-far dyne

and I got rev swirl-zulu clip both sides, my flip regular rev swirl isn't good so it was good practice

some more stuff that I forget... tomorrow will be 45th day in a row :D looking forward to #50

Nice work on the consecutive kicking days streak - hope you keep going to over 100 and onwards. I did it for a month straight, and it felt really good to be dedicating time to each day, even if it's only for a short time. I think I'm going to aim for a more extensive goal in the coming months.

How about diving rev swirl bsos?

I'd love to see Gyro Symposium Blink BS. I can get the Gyro Blinks, but Gyro Symp Blink is so much cooler. I bet you can get that.

still never hit symp blink, besides symple rev swirls I don't do much symple/symposium tricks, or very little by choice, I feel they hurt the body too much and I rather play for a couple more years :D

But I'll try it eventually!

diving rev swirl bsos, hmm maybe I'm not sure I've hit the trick both sides, but defenetly possible


today for 45th day I got gyro egg bsos and smoke-far rev swirl both sides

had a lot of fun playing with Ianek and François today

Some personal highlights: midstring grifter (almost bsos, footed flip to end the run)
flip fairy eggbeater
fairy ducking whirl both sides (not sure if hit even one before)
thanks to Ianek for a tip on how to set inspin! use the full leg to set, not just a push from the foot

I've been doing consecutive ducking clippers in the morning for a couple of days, due to my super busy schedule lately I need to shred in bits to make a 30 minute a day

this morning I got 57 consecutive ducking clippers, I think my record was higher tough, still felt good :)

Funny, that is my exact record for Pdx Drifters too :P and that's why I want to learn Drifters too :P :P We can both get 50 soon, I know it.

what better way to start day #58 in a row, with a session!

Didn't have a choice, working then leaving for a party out of town, no room for a sess and will be back after midnight!

not much for a morning session, just doing drifters and atw/orbit
new drifter record from 2 days ago: 19

today I finished session to see motion sickness constancy, did hand-cliper-motion sickness-catch-rpt 7 times before I dropped :)

61 days now :D

today was a shorter session, about 30 minutes, next days will be the same, doing double shifts until saturday.

something new and cute: fairy legover-atomic legover-rpt
also fixed my flip atomic, that wall that I couldn't surpass of lifting my leg, I can now lift the atomic leg properly, wich granted me some decent atomsmashers.

I got fear-atomsmasher both sides with decent sets, maybe I can rpt if I work on it. Not as easy as smear-atomsmasher that I've hit before but pixie can forgive so much on a bad stall..

Since yesterday hitting some flip bedwetters, and also bsos'D it on day 60, a huge goal that I had in mind for so long, felt soooo good to finally do it. I am now pushing myself to hit at least one flip bedwetter every day, still need to fix flip stepping, it's weird because it looks better then strong, but nowhere as efficient.

feeling good!

day 64

2 short 20 mins session, one with new gunits

first one: fairy ss eggbeater! and a couple of runs, made sure to hit flip bedwetter at least once, need to hit it every day to motivate me on flip steps!

second sess: new gunits
not too shabby for brand new units, got some good runs, of course the control is'nt as good as my super broken-in units, but it was'nt as if I lost much touch.

got some nice stuff like flip reaper midstring first try, something that I have also worked on recently, and a spinning reaper first try :D
also maybe new, tapping whirl both sides

day 67
got flip bedwetter within 3 tries, felt good!

blur-shutdown-rpt, almost starting from each side (3 contacts from flip)

then I killed the session by trying atomic eggbeater, got some fair attempts but my right leg felt so bad after trying so many atomics, finished with 38 consecutive orbits and that was it :)

now some rest before my girl wakes up!
