Boats is right, except funnier spelling "Wauxpin"

But wow man. Props on allodat. Especially the Drifters. Just be really careful with them. It's easy to throw out a hip on an over rotated drifter. Also, Hell yeah, Torque is the ish. Most importantly… 23 Tiltless! Woot woot! Good stuff man! Soon you'll be at 50 and before you realize it, you'll be pushing 100. Bad ass, Paul. Keep it up.

Good stuff, I don't know how you could hit drifter and torque in the same session, these two don't like each other. =)

Also, don't worry about starting trick of a drill. Most drills, if not all of them are the same no matter which trick you start with. So for Rubberman, you can start with atom, legbeater and blur and it will always be a Rubberman. Or so I was told.

Mega Reply To All Of Y'all:

@Shred4Life, You know it! And you know we will shred again, Yah willing.

@Boats, Butter Rake is kind of neat feeling, but I'm not sure I would use it in my daily shred. Vince was teaching me all kinds of uniqe-ish stuff.

@Knick Poe Lee Knee, 23 is pretty good, but let me clarify so you don't think I'm doing better than I really am. It was a Rpt drill with only 3 tiltless tricks, for exercise sake, but they are still tiltless and there were still 23 contacts. Clip>pickup>legover>Rpt. works both sides, burns some calories, gets a flow goin, makes me sweat, helps consistency. related note, I still don't know how to impromptu shred. its always a plan. shred will come later when I know more and am more consistent with all of it right?

@Kish, I'm so tempted to reply to your final statement in a serious way, but I KNOW YOU'RE BEING FUNNY. So, Go jump in the lake you son of a buscuit! lol! (thanks man :wink: ... just couldn't see how I could continue when I couldn't even be laying down without excruciating, paralyzing pain. I'm so glad to be able to kick again, or just walk for that matter!)

@Add Block, I think I found the secret to both of those tricks, getting the dexing leg around the bag in a cocked position kind of like you are about to do a pickup, or a legover. after drifter was hit, it was like... "wait a minute, the dex for torque is the same isn't it, just ending in an osis..." then BAM! (dream come true, eight times!) and thank you for the clarification on drills.

NEW MODIFIED RECORD, 8 replies before I made an entry. you guys and gals are the best.

Also, i went through my blog and saw everyone who gave me props. I found out that some of you read my blog but don't reply, and that's okay, I'm thankful for the props! Several from people whom I look up to in footbag.Lately I've felt like I'm actually making a positive contribution to being a part of the community (which was one of my goals in starting footbag again). I even think I encouraged one of my Heroes, which I never thought little ol tiltless me, or big ol tiltless me, could possibly do. So thats NEATO! Gonna go do some tiltless drills. Vincent, don't ask me if I can hit ___________, because Dad Blame it, I'll probably try and succeed! (i'm trying to get rid of this gut dude!)

Awww yeah. Once zooming gets into your game, all hell breaks loose. Heist Krupp practicing it, it baked a great bail.

Trick Requests from Baa Baa

Wait, what?

Yeah Aaron, the back is good once I warm up, but when im cooled down, its kinda tight. Been doing stretches, chiropractor, inversion table, and excercise, and drinking water water water and that is helping many areas of my life.

SaBaa Baastian hit a few clippers today (his first ever) but only sealed one with a hand catch, (video in his blog) then he gave me a request game. Here is the Stuff he requested, and I hit them all with one exception:

Spinning rake
Diving mirage
Ducking mirage
Spinning osis
Ducking legover
Spinning mirage
Spinning legover
Footed spinning ducking legover

You have by far the cleanest and best looking style of any beginner/intermediate I've seen. When you start going for more intensive tricks, always remind yourself to keep this style. You'll score high on routines and people will want to see you play. 8)

I think add block just became my new best friend. WHAT A COMPLIMENT!

Boyle, I've been practicing strings for basically the first time in my footbag history, so I appreciate you noticing, even if they are simple tiltless. =)

You're too kind. I appreciate that. I am certainly paying attention to your game. Sabastian is going to pass me and my game and there are others who have done the same on here and I can see you becoming one of them as well.
