That's my favorite of your highlights, in addition to Phasing Gyro Mirage! Sounds sick man. You need a damned video camera! Keep it up.Also eggbeater>plo>eggbeater>plo>plo>plo>DLO>plo>DLO and fairy ripstein first and only try.

Yeh you played real nice on Sunday. Some of your strings were fantastic and so was that blizzard
Anyways, it was great to play with you again and I hope to shred some time soon

Had a great session today, heaps of fun to have a good quality kick with somebody else filming. But seeing as someone else was filming it will probably take a while to get the footage, though I don't mind cause it's great footage and I have exams soon anyway (no time for editing).
after a long absence I've really got back into the pinch set eggbeaters again, I started a few runs with it (on video, so naturally I forgot all details).
had a go at the pixie record again, dropped at 145 out of pure tiredness, meh.
hit symp paradon for the first time, missed barraging flail by a few cm.
did some toe flurries for the camera.
almost had flurry>flurry, I really want to hit that one.

Finally had a solo session today.
It was hard to get back into it again after not playing for a while, I've shredded a few times in the last few months, but not as much as I'd have liked. I've had a nagging knee injury, I think the time off has been good for recovery, so thats a positive I guess.
Tried to get into it slowly, warmed up with some kicks and toe stalls. did a lot of tiltless and "bail" runs. My right clipper was really off today, so I tried to work on clipper form for entire session. Got a new move, fairy swirling gyro blind inside stall. Worked double dex alot, worked on getting stuff bsos. Also sidewalk bsos and swirl bsos, lmao.

Crazy shit!! It's about time you have a new video.
Surprise us... but I do have to request some Flurries.

cheers,
had a session after my Mathematics exam today, it was cold so I took forever to warm up. Went for long runs with low intensity, managed 101 contacts with many toe bails. Also 202 op toe stalls. Still felt cold.......
Drilled pinchers for the first time in ages today, managed to hit some stuff I was happy with: pinch set ducking clipper> near pinch> rpt > run with pinch set atw bsos and right lobster, dropped on left lobster.
pincher pixie ss clipper> far pinch>rpt
also some new stuff, sidewalk rake bs, pinch set parkwalk BS and pinch ss illusion on flipside.
Definitely want to start playing at least every second day for the next few months, at the moment I'm not playing anywhere near enough to get to the level I want to be at with my toe game.
thinking I might start drilling clipper moves, not sure, what do you guys think?

had another session: two days in a row now
mostly went for length again, it was really hard going especially my clippers, which are terrible.
got a few 50+ tiltless strings, 64 was longest for today.
osis> near mirage > rpt > run !!!!

yeah I know it's a pretty shitty combo for most people, but for me it's a bit of a milestone since left osis has been really bad post injury.
also clipper set ss refraction BS and a few alternating osis's.
still no flipside torque
did some more pinchers today, worked on sets, got some great sets off but my downtimes that land on clipper are very weak and need a lot of work.
tried symp flurry, got close a few times, also tried some barraging sets managed to get a few off. Unfortunately both of these totally kill my knees, so I think I'll keep on avoiding them.

played again today, haven't played 3 days in a row for a long time, maybe since January/Feburary when I played every day. It's been getting colder now and outside sessions have been really tough, but now I have an inside shred spot 
First inside session in a long long time today. Was good to be able to warm up without much trouble. Spent more time drilling my weakest concepts. Been trying to sort out my flip clipper, it's been really hard going. Hit whirl > osis bsos , ss butter > osis bsos, pixie ss clipper > osis bsos and just generally more osis stuff in runs. Tried ducking butterfly again, still sucks. Flip blender is still non existant. Something is really bad with my left quad, I was having trouble hitting a single datw in-out, a move that I'm usually very consistent with. Total overhaul of datw technique, trying to step it up for tatw.
my shoes are almost dead, new shoes are coming in soon. Also borrowing a friends camera next week, so this time I will definatley get some video footage out, cause I'll be the one doing it

Barefoot session just then. After a few days of going long, decided to try and bust out large this session. Clipper tricks were going well, managed some good stepping sets, both ripwalks (last time I hit a ripwalk barefoot it was in a dream
) and quite a few osis tricks. They were inconsistent, but they are inconsistent for me in shoes too. Worked on my double pixies and flipside toe barrage.
highlights:
clipper set flurry>run bs
run with enterrage bsos and a toe flurry (probably "the")
pixie rev whirl bs
symp whirl bs
left(flipside) datw in> enterrage
zooming far legover bs and zooming far illusion bs (never done either of these in shoes)
right ripwalk > run with dimwalk bsos
enterrage>flurry
but best of all I've finished a session pain free
guess barefoot shred is just the way I should go.

played barefoot again today, really worked on my flipside datw out-in.
datw in, datw out, dso bsos in a pixie run
datw in and datw out bsos in a plo run
dso, terrage bsos in a plo run
barrage> terrage>rpt > run
favourite of all was hitting:
toe double pickup> mirage > rpt
you know the feeling when you hit a drill that you've been trying for ages.
ended the session on that.

Had a great session at Southbank with Caroline.
It's great to be able to warm up with the warmer Brisbane weather. Managed some good strings, hit pheonix midrun for the first time and did a nice neck stall handstand first try. Double pickup was good, but much harder in shoes, also had toe whirr off the foot, couldn't quite get the catch but the dexes aren't all that bad, all the double pickup practice has definatley helped. Typing at an internet cafe
so not much time, will write up more later on.
