I consider today to be my first official day stylin'.
I spent the better part of yesterday scouring the town for some Rod Lavers alongside my roomates bi-sexual polygomist lover that was visiting us. Got 'em at DSW on clearance. It was the only one left and it fits good! Nice I been dreaming of this day for a while now and finaly found some lavers locally.
Got home and then I immediately began the modding process. I cut the toe strap stitches and spent almost 3 hours trying to lace the damn things right (stoned). I did infact do a little shredding yesterday, but not for very long as I was anticipating cutting the canvas from the insides.I dont know why I just thought that since I went this far I may as well go all the way you know, and wanted to start all the way. I began practicing clippers and leg overs...actually i dont think its called a leg over its just a toe stall-toss it up-and circle the bag with the same foot and toe stall.........what the hell is tat called?
Anyway I can already hit that move I been practicing it for a long ass time just in the circle. However the clipper gives me some difficulty. I hit it about 20% of the time. I was only practicing my right foot though.
So today rolls arround. My lavers were dry from soaking them last night to get the glue loosened up on the canvas. It took me about an hour or so to finish cutting the canvas out, but i finaly did it. They seem to be a little lighter but thats about it. Ehh.
Then I was all excited and wanted to kick...but alas I couldnt find any of my 5 hacks. So I had to run down to the zebra head and buy a new damn 32 panel HERO bag for 13 bux. Its ok I guess. Kinda puffy but i think she'll break in.
Finaly got home and tried to do some real actual practicing for the first time. I was dead set to just really practice on learning the clipper. I practiced for a good hour or so and was hitting it about 20-30% still. Ongoing.
Arround 4 or 5 I walked down to the UNT camppus/fry street area to A. Get a beer and B. Start a circle.
I actually got a circle going pretty fast. First one other guy then 2 more joined. One left and lo and behold another arrived! They were decent circle players that really werent hitting any tricks. Well this one guy played like bruce leee or some shit. But it was pretty lame. We played for about 30-45 minutes before the circle fell apart. Really a decent show. I was hitting various stalls and a few clippers and leg over dillys that i do. Players were impressed with my skills. I talked about start a Denton TX area footbag club and 2 guys were really interested. So this should be more common now hopefully.
I really wanted to play more but this girl that Ive recently been getting friendly with was SUPOSED to come over to my house sometime so I went home and waited for her for a while. She finaly called me back and said that she was at her house doing laundry and studying and that she was in a bad mood or some gay fuck off shit.
Sooooo I pissed all that time away waiting for her bitch ass to not show when I coulda been shredding. I dont know man I havent seen this girl in like 5 days now, I think she might be bailin on me
So that sucks. I dont care really, she dont shred!
Peace in the middle west, Im about to go back to fry street and see if any local yocals want to kick my sack.
