Thanks for making me laugh harder than anyone at this event. The whole pizza situation was pure hilarity.

-Nick, fuck yes! It was great meeting ya, and getting in as much shred as we did. That is quite the compliment, and glad I could pass on the Egg virus. Yo game was pretty nuts, and mad props on 9 Mobi. I was watching, and you were pretty darn consistent with the attempts. That's the joy of footbag, can't be good at everything. We shall meet again, and I will hold ya to it.

Wow. <3
I'll consider it, feel like I'm not the greatest teacher, when it comes to footbag. But, seeing as this isn't the first request, I'll try.

-Asmus, thanks, kinda stole the syle from Nick. Ha. It is all about the peeps, and I hope to meet you someday. I'll try and get a picture of it on here, it's not whatcha think, or maybe :wink:

-Cassy, that is by far the greatest picture I've ever been in. Thank you so very much! Adam's face, though. Might of hit something pretty. Ya-yuh, one of my favorite compliments. I think if you and Brian wouldn't have cracked up so much, I woulda been irate. Ha. It was a pleasure chillin' with ya most of the weekend.

-Andre, you are a dope dude, and I'm real glad you competed. Hopefully I can make! We got in a fair amount of shreddage, very good.

-Dan, awesome meetin' ya too, and glad we did squeeze in some play. Filthy, eh, I love it! Might ya be attending NYJ? Fulfill the prophecy, and become a footbag beast.

-B-b-b-ben, I trykicknyj. Penske definitely knows coach, and has shown me the ways. Lo siento, I kinda went fanboy playing with Hogan and Nick. Shoulda pulled me aside holmes, I don't mind. Well, for being Snorlax sore, ya ripped it up. For realsees, I am down!

Pixie Diving ss DLO

That's a good one. I'd probably knee myself in the head if I tried that. :lol:

No preference. I'll take a shot at it, might lose a couple of teeth in the process, though. :)

And now I want a pizza again. :?

Cool I'm glad I accidentally grabbed your top post and was like "shit I better find a photo of him." I impress myself how often I'm able to do this successfully.

There's almost nobody I played enough with at ECFC. We'll have to make up for it over the holidays ;)

Vojta: I think you'll be dandy, you have an awesome toe game, so it should be cake... After 20 tries. Ha. Pizza is good for the soul, especially if it's that BOMB stuff.

Cassy: I'm very glad you did, as well. I notice you do snag the top posts of people's blogs a lot, and tend to have a picture of them. Pretty consistent. I sure hope so! Your cooties were weak sauce :)


Clippa' Dippa' Strippa'

I have been trying to amp up my game pretty hard. Started up this week running before and after playing, and once my body adjusts, I should be doing some 2-a-days, too. Planning on playing 5 days a week, with 2 rest days in between. The running has boosted my stamina like crazy, yo. Also, started stitching again. Have some 8 stitch 8 panels($10) and 5 stitch 14's($16) for sale. Taught by a Mr. Brian Bear. Take a bit to break in, but then they are juice for quite some time.

Been really focusing on Clipper in my sessions, and I think it is beginning to show some progress. I've been boosting up my PR's every dang day, it seems. Before I get into what I did today, I should bring up some highlights of the week. Got caught up in some add hunting one day, and it had been some time since I have, so I went with it.

-Pixie Ducking Egg (Brought much death to my legs)
-Ducking Paradox DLO

But, fuck all that noise, cause today, I went a bit bonkers.

-24 op Clippers
-20 op Clippers (Infinity style)
-100 Tiltless (Two times! With so much variety)
-Symple Pick-up *10
-Infinity *10 !!
:arrow: 90+ contact run with 32 P. Illusion's (16 each side) and 16 P. Mirages (8 each side), all Clips!!!!
-Egg >ss Egg repeat *4
-DLO >ss DLO repeat *4
-ss Egg *8
-ss DLO *12
-Pixie Symple Legover *10
-Atom Smasher B2B
-Atomic Legover >PLO repeat *3
-Atomic Legover >ss DLO repeat
-Smear *10 BS
-Pixie Pick-up *12
-A run where I felt like Matt Kemmer doing shuffle, so slow and smooth, with multiple sets. The sounds my feet were making, SO GOOD.

Edit: Flying Toe a couple times, and Pixie Flying Toe, for Kevin. Also, Atomic Symple Legover BSOS


I think I covered it. Hope to start filming some shizz for a Halloween video, but we'll see. I will get you footbag, just wait.

I wanted to very slowly go for the 100 guiltless challenge, and your highlights make me think that if we made a race out of such challenge, you'd be a worthy opponent, though bloody hard to beat. 8)

Also, have you checked the page with Jeremy O'Wheels trick records? Most of the pixie ones are weak, we should just fill that page with our names. :twisted:
Except for PLOs, that record is just unreal. (around 200 from Damian)

100 Guiltless is very far off in my future, I think (Clipper is elusive). But, if you'd like to race, I'm definitely game. Just don't complain when you win in a landslide. Ha. Scoped the record list right now, and the only ones that seem feasible are Ken's ss Smear (14) and ss Smog (4). Other than that, they are pretty up there. Which records were you thinking about going for?

I'm very far from that goal as well, it's meant to be a long one. 8)

You could definitely go for DLOs and Eggbeaters, both same and opposite side. Then stuff like Pigs, Smogs. 8)
Pixie OP Pickup is not even there, I could get around 30.
Smear and Smudge are quite high, but achievable with a bit of practice.
Pixie Barrage is not even there, although I doubt I could get more than 3.

Then, it's a race! But, I bet you get it by next Summer. The only thing about going after records, is I ONLY like the ones that use both sides. Otherwise, you are just showing off strong side, but that's just me and my OCD. I didn't even notice there wasn't Pixie op Pickup, but if you can bust 30, that's all you 8) Think I can do like 20+ on a good day. I shall try and push for a couple records with ya, though. ss DLO is mine (16), even though it isn't listed. And, after this video, ss Egg is mine (12) :wink:

Made this video for you, Vojta, seeing as you made one upon my request. Didn't have any fresh batteries, so I had to make due with the 5 pairs of dead ones. Was able to milk them for about 5 minutes of recording, but it sucked, cause I had to do everything on the first try. Good Circle practice, I suppose. Decent footage, though. My square is too small, I like to wander.

Other highlights from the session:
-Drill mania
-32 op Clippers !!!!!!!!
-20 P Illusion BSOS
-Infinity *7

I will make a better video, hopefully, in the near future. Shout out to Evan G for showing me the ways, and Johnny Sarah for making sure I stay limber.

If you've got a Footbag.org account, you can edit the page directly yourself: http://www.footbag.org/reference/-/Free ... ld_Records

I just updated a bunch of Lon/Evan/you ones today, like 6 of them. It's super easy.

Props on the records. I may chase you to get them back at some point this winter. :wink:

How about pixie egg? I used to have the record with ten, but then Krzysztof Sobotka got me with 14. :x I bet you could get that many. But yeah, we should push each other on some of these records.

Good stuff, thanks for the video.

Those links were loooooooooooong. :D

It's probably a good idea to try 100 tiltless before we go for 100 guiltless, I never thought of that, however obvious that might seem. I can only remember getting 150 consecutive legovers, but there's no variety in that. Did you go over 100? I will count it if you don't remember.

Also, congratulations on the World record. 8)

Dear Derek,

I hate your world records. Hate hate hate them. Also, your tattoo looks like a big va jay jay on your torso.

Vojta: Thanks, and you're welcome! I only hit 70, I was really trying to keep the variety up, and force some Clippers in there. Been real adamant on variety, lately. If I do all toes, I can almost do 100 on command. I try for one 100 Tiltless string a day, otherwise, 3 over 50. One of these days I'll finally get 100 on film. Go get that Pixie Pick-up record!


Oh, Ken. Oh, Kenny, Ken, Ken. I only like to attempt records that use both sides. My OCD doesn't allow too much on one side. But, if I get a wild hair up my butt, I'll give it a shot. USA!

SO CLOSE, oh, man. Excited to see you going for it already. Triple ATW is hot. I will remember this comment until the end of my time. <3

Toe, Big Toe. If I make BAP, maybe? :twisted:
