Thankyou. I voted for Mr.Moir in round two and three.

And i forgot to say that some of the combos that I hit, Nathan hit as well. I'm really sure i'm missing an important one though.

Ducking Paradox Whirl, onyl Meinard saw it though.
and
Drifter

Got to the session 1.5 hours late, but still played for a good 4 hours.

Edit:
got a hair cut!

Had a Whopper, a corned beef sandwich, a salad, banana, yogurt, sesame seed squares, Jello, protein shake, Thai ice coffee, and like a quart of water since 9 AM. Haven't had BK in so long, not that great. Been at least a year for Mcd's.

Yesterday:
-threw in DLO midstring
-ducking butter>ducking butter again
-Ducking legover (first time)
-diving pickup
-ducking clipper x4 again

Played footbag for about 4h30min(most of it was hacking).

-Hit Phoenix again.
-Ripwalk an sidewalk BS
-Smear>DLO>string
-bunch of tiltless strings

Kicking with Nathan tonight, my goal is a few 18+ tiltless strings.

I was looking over the footbage i took last week and started transferring it to my computer when i noticed a movie file. It was a video i started before NYJ, cause i still had my Lavers in some footage, but most of the strings are junk, so I'mma film a bit today. Expect another video in the next few weeks. Its kinda a rip off of this bmx vid, but whatever.

Edit:I also hit blur for the second time(on Sunday at the taste)

Shitty session today... but guess what? i finished the video
_____
I started filming and editing after NYJ but i eventually stopped. I completely forgot about this video until recently, when i was uploading footbage. So I thought i would add some more recent stuff. The footage thats indoors is from winter when it was too cold too kick outside, and the outdoor stuff is from June. I bailed to osis a lot, guess i still do, but that was when i was still getting the hang of BOPs. I feel like i kinda slacked on the editing on the newer footage, and maybe i could've filmed a few more sessions to show my variety of tricks other than the ones in this vid, but i got impatient and this is the result.

If you're still down for riding tomorrow night, you're going to need a helmet and water. I have a pair of water bottles and 2 cages to hold them on your bike if you need to borrow them. Looks like it will rain before and after the ride, lower 60's and windy in between so dress accordingly. I also have some extra red LED lights you can attach to your bike or whatever. At least people behind you can see where you are in those dark stretches of the lake path where theres little to no light.

Call me and let me know if you need any the water bottles & light and I'll be sure to bring it to Grant Park. The goodie bag also came with a box of tampons...





I don't know either, I just thought I should mention it
:lol:

just tried to call you twice Zeke, get a new/working phone, woman!


So i thought I'd be sore from last night's footbag sessions but im not, and I'm helping my dad re-tile the floor, but we're waiting for some glue/grout to dry. We got our new fridge on Monday and I love it. Its stainless steel, fingerprint proof, and has a ice/water dispenser that i keep on playing with. I also helped tile and grout the walls after tearing them down, rewire some wires, and put drywall up.

Cleaned up and oiled my bike yesterday. Also put on some new handlebar tape. Hopefully i dont cramp up during or after the ride today.

Shit, i totally forgot i was goingto update about my footbag status. :oops:

Biked to Wrigley Field yesterday and kicked with Abe and Tom. The session was close to 90 mins. Lots of drunk white people aka Cubs fans. I dont like baseball much so whatever. Only a few things that stick out in my memory.
-Ripwalk>Osis>shitty string
-Pixie whirl>shitty string
-Tom hitting smog BSOS
-"Luke at 'em break DANce!"(something like that)

Rode home and found i was out of fruit so blended ice andMilo with milk.

Kicked with Nathan for about 2 hours. Did consecutive tricks and some strings.
-So close to Bsos-ing ripwalk
-pickup x16(didnt count, thats an estimation)
-taking too many tries to hit butterfly 10 times

Stuff i haven't posted yet:
-Datw>smear
-smear x3
-DLO>really high pixie setting hand catch
-swirl getting a tiny bit easier

2 sessions today. Totaled around 4.5 hours

First one at Portage with Tom, Josh, and Mike.
Nothing highlight worthy.

Second session with Nathan and Josh.
Hit Darkwalk first try, first time.

My flip diving clipper was pretty off today, actually, now that i think about it most of my strings were pretty bad. Just one of those days, i guess.

If i remember I'll write out some strings and prctice them tomorrow.

I can think of at least one really nice string you did that I only wish I could hit. Started with Ripwalk> Whirl, think it was like 10 contacts guiltless? I can't do that stuff at all. Yet.

And you had just eaten - I know that messes up my game, at least.

Props again on Darkwalk, your pixie is great.

Man I have this sudden urge to make a movie about footbag. Something that'll scream Chicago/60618, some sorta ambient, artsy vid.

This will take me all summer and a month to finish! if I follow through.

Hopefully i feel this way tomorrow.

-BSOSed Whirl again(2nd time) I should really work my flip a lot more.
-butter>butter>swirl(clean)>string at least twice
-Butter>diving clip>rpt (6 or 7contacts?)
-didnt use (m)any sets today(maybe pixie a few time)

Has anyone seen 'Stranger Than Fiction'?
Such a great movie! I rented it and watched it 4-5 times a few months ago, but i just downloaded the soundtrack, and its bringing memories back.

Nathan BSOSed the crap out of terrage today!

Note to self:Hit terrage

I'm really looking forward to going to Florida, even though my chances of going to world's is about 25% right about now. I was also thinking about how much bigger NYJ will be next year, and how much more fun it will be since i will(hopefully) be in better shape and better at footbag. Also looking forward to pwning at 4s(only if i'm able to turn super saiyan again).

Man, footbag's fun.

I think this post needs a picture or three.

Hell yeah man, I hope you make more videos.

Night ride looks insane. Like it could turn into a riot at any moment. All those violent bikers.

Haven't seen Stranger than Fiction.

You can totally hit Terrage.

Check it. Footbag with Zeke, Nathan, Ronnie, Josh, Jake, Meinard, and Abe.

-Ripwalk Bsos in a less than 10 contact string with mostly butterflies
-Legbeater flipside!


Haven't kicked with Jake in a while, hes gotten swole.

I was trying illusions and told Abe to try them. He hit it both sides for the first time ever! 8O
