Thanks Zach. I know I need to work on the old flip but learning a new trick is so damn tempting!

HAHAHAHHA... just a little side story. I share rooms with my sister keep in mind:

Sarah (my Sister whos sleeping): OUch ouch ouch
Me: What's up, sarah?
Sarah: I fucking have a fucking huge fucking leg cramp
Me: Okay
Sarah: (yelling) Don't fucking talk to me. I fucking have to fucking get up early for fucking work.

She doesn't have to work tommowre

Just a quick update:

Today was all about my flip per to Zach's advice. See, I used to be complete. I could do ATW both sides simpely, buuuut I been ingoreing it so if you don't use thoese skills they go away I have found. So, I schooled my flip long and hard andhave nothing to show for it. Well, not nothing but no trick were sealed. I pretty much justed dexercise and stuff for like 30 minutes. Than I got bored of that and worked on my Pixies. It went pretty good. I getting load better on them. I land and seal about 60% of the time. I also worked on my pixies flip. I didn't land any but it getting close. Legovers are still proveing diffucault. My timing getting better but I land Pixies more often than Legovers.

I did a little surgery today on my shoes and bags.

I gathered my guts up today to cut my canvas. The whole time I was cutting I was like, 'Oh my god, oh my god." It's scary cutting them up. I only did a third of my right shoes tobox before I Cut my shoe. Pretty badly too! So, I was too freaked out to start again. So now I have a 1/3 modded toe box.

As for my bag I decied to slice my bags up.

See, I have this crappy herd bag that's a 32 full of sand. I never shred with it so I just said what the hell and emptyed out all my sand. I kept all of Fajta (the bag) sand to use in my Mr's when they lose there sand. I also, cut open a crappy crocheted and harvested that guys beads. There the crappy "BB" kind but they had to due. First I filled it up with just "BB". But the bag was waaay to light. So, I add some aqua rocks. They made it semi-heavy which I like. Now, it's still rolly but maybe when it breaks in that problem will go away.

All in all, I like making bags. I think I gonna go to the craft store and pick up some farbic and beads and start making some more! Who knows maybe I be the next Abshire!

Don't worry t much about cutting into the shoe, i have about 5 little cuts on the inside of my first pair I did, but I was lame enough not to use a hair dryer. Just use some shoe goo to patch it up.

lightningbolt · Post by **lightningbolt** » 01 Sep 2004 19:37

I didn't use a hairdryer.

Loooong time, no shred.

School has started and I haven't shreded a lick for a looong time. I was going to shred in between my classes at UAA (Universty of Alaska Anchorage- Don't ask why Alaska comes before Anchorage) today. BUT My biology teacher kept us 15 minutes over! 15!!!

And as soo as I took out my bag ready to shred, I didn't even get a tiny toestall in there before it started to pour down rain.

I couldn't go inside because everyboy was inside. Arg!

Finally, today after classes I got in a shred. Ah, it felt real nice! I even busted this string:
Legover>pixie>legover>atw>atw> handcatch!

I also worked alot on my flip. Still retarded as ever! Ah, I ever so pissed. I came so close to a atw. Sad I know. I used to be able to do 'em on the old flip but I worked so hard on legovers I tottaly forgot about my flip. Never used it, so it just went away.

I also worked on Butterflys! I came close soo many times but as always I never landed it. Mostly, I lost my blance and fell on my ass!

MOVES I CAN HIT [/size=18][/size]

lightningbolt · Post by **lightningbolt** » 01 Sep 2004 19:38

Okay, just ingore that last little bit!

lightningbolt · Post by **lightningbolt** » 04 Sep 2004 23:48

Nothing really new.

It was so cool. I was at a party and one girl said something like, "hacky sack for fags" or some shit like that. I was like. "Shut up, you don't know what your talking about." Then some jackass, started talking about it and how hacky sack is lame and started rattle on about it. I polite corrected him by saying it's called footbag.
Dude:but it's called hacky sack
Me: No thats just a brand name.
Dude: Whos it made by?
Me wham-o
That shut him down. They I whipped out my bag preceed to do a legover> pixe>legover>indiestall>atw. They were all shocked. then that girl in a small like voiced said, "It's only for fags if they suck". They the converstion turn towards some hot circle kicker

. I felt like hot shit after that!

Hopefully, I exposed some people to freestyle and they maybe take a interst in it.

I been finding it hard to find time for footbag. I played a little friday. I sealed a wrap, and my flip coming along.

I been working hard on the Modified memeber shred video at night, when I can't shred. I need to get a better editing program. The one I have now (Windows moive maker) is easy to use, but lacks complexed. Thus, limiting the shit I can do.

I found a pair of Lavers 80% ish off! They were in my size and eveything! I got 'em for around 14 bucks. SCORE! There just the white/blue ones. I would have liked a differnt color but they were so cheap, how could I go wrong? I am shocked how white they are compared to my other pair of white/blue ones.

My woes:

I steped on this huge as tack. It went all the way in my foot and I had to pull it out, quite disguisting. The tip was even bent so it was like a hook! Now it hurts like a bitch if I put ANY weight on it. So, I out for shreding for a while. Which sucks beacuse I been working on the doof stall!

I almost kinda got it. I just have to stall it a little more on the outside.

On monday I going to the docters to get some shot updated. I am deathly afarid of shots. And I might have him take a look at it. It's all black. My a part of it broke off in there. Who knows?

Thanks Zach! But I not on AIM too much.......

Well, yesterday I got really tried of sitting still. So, I wraped up my foot really really good and shreded. I had a REALLY good session, besides my foot hurting.

HIGHLIGHT:

FLIPSIDE PIXIE!
Butterfly kick BOTH SIDES!

It was just a awesome session! Tottaly pumped. I feel realy good about the flip pixie. I have a really bad flipside that I been working on for a long time and finally it's showing results.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I hit 4 wraps in a row!

lightningbolt · Post by **lightningbolt** » 27 Sep 2004 16:26

I know all of you are just dying to know what I been doing, so here it goes:

I am proud to report that I have have clippers down! I can go from a clipper to a toe, no sweat.

Sooo, colse to a flip legover. I have flip pixies down and almost flip fairys.

Yeah, so that what I am doing.

Seath · Post by **Seath** » 27 Sep 2004 16:51

congrats on the clipper!!
did you hit it both sides?? DONT FORGET BOTH SIDES!

i neglected my flip clipper and im paying for it now

Shredster · Post by **Shredster** » 27 Sep 2004 17:28

Nice work Lightningbolt.

Ryan, yeah, i neglected my flip clippers for 7 months. I'm glad i started drilling them then, because now, its no big problem at all.

Just on a future note...any sets you may learn, learn them both sides early...Even if you fail both sides, just drill both sides. A good example is pixie sets. My flip pixie, despite 3 months of constant drilling, have seemed to get only slightly, and i do mean slightly, better.

BOTH sidedness is awesome goodness if you can do it.

lightningbolt · Post by **lightningbolt** » 30 Sep 2004 22:23

Thanks for all the advice. Yeah, I have a very bad flip clipper. So, I will work on that and hopefully get it down soon. I been working on streaching out my ankles because there not flexie enough. I think that will help.

Today, Drangonflys- Both sides Whoooohooo!

Thats pretty much it.

ashleyd · Post by **ashleyd** » 01 Oct 2004 05:30

wow your really progressing. Other tricks i recomend practicing are:
-clipper both sides. ( try to do 2 or more in a row, then keep track of how many and try to beat that the next time you shred)
-butterfly
-mirrage both sides.
Once you get mirrage and legover kinda down, drill mirrage>legover repeat.
just remember to keep doing everything both sides.
