Had a good long session in my garage today, no mats, and now I'm sore.
Had a few good strings at the begining but mainly filmed myself doing torques, paradons, and other tricks so I could see how I was doing them wrong. things I worked on-
-torques, feel easier even though I didnt hit any
-paradons, hit one good one, I do them wrong
-whirls, getting a whole lot better, they dont hurt anymore
-rev whirls, kinda rusty
-symposiums, did a lot of these today and after watching myself on them, I do them a whole lot higher and better than I thought I did, symp. mirage is now my avatar
-tried to do butter>ducking clip>diving clip>bubba>rpt, but never did, I probably could have if I spent more time on it.

highlights-
-pdx whirl! I was so happy, I thought it would be forever before I hit this
-ducking clip>diving clip>rpt, and did it like on my second try too.
-really really close to flail on several attepts.

I dont think I will play tomorrow but I might if I'm not too sore.

played some footbag again today, didnt feel as good as yesterday, probably cause I was a little sore. Illusions sucked, used to be able to hit a lot consecutively but today i couldnt mainly worked on-
-stepping, was doing a lot better than before but was kinda outta control with all my stepping tricks
-syposiums, hit flail, almost both sides felt good
-spinning, mainly my flip, worked a little bit of the kinks out

footbag again today, felt like I did pretty good-
-spinning clipper>spinning clipper on flipside
-a string with 4 spinng clippers
-diving clip>ducking clip>rpt, alomost x2
-infinity>rev whirl>rpt
-ss butter> whirl bs
-spinning pdx mirage bs
-ducking clipx5, I think I can do more if I try
-gyro clipperx3
-osis>ss butterfly>rpt x2
-footed omelette 4 times on strong side, and 2 on flip
-torque on strong side, footed on flip, feel like they are getting easier
-tried some barrages, it was pathetic

I noticed today I always do opposite clipper out of osis, so I tried to do something else out of it, it makes the osis so much harder

session tomorrow at riverside

Session today at riverside, played pretty well at first, but seemed to get really tired really quick. Hit-
-omelette, alomost bs
-eggbeater
-atomic ducking
-PLO back to back
there was a lot of other stuff I was happy with but I cant remember what it was, I do remember my stepping, whirls, dynos, and rev whirls all felt off. tomorrow I'm off for vacation

Played today after a long vacation to two different states. On the vacation I played horrible and didnt feel like I had control of my legs.
today- didnt push myself too hard and I was sore cause of the running I did earlier today. Despite being sore I am satisfied with how I played, everything felt alright except pdx illusions, they gave me tons of trouble. The only thing I was really happy about hitting was hitting legbeater out of illusion midstring and whirlx2 on my strong side.
oh, and my new bags are great,one made by Chris Miller and the other by Louis Rinowski

sessioned today with Luis, Louis, and Tommy. Luis is so awesome with everything he does, Louis was bustin some long strings, and tommy seemed like he improved as the session went on. I played pretty good but I have no stamina.Symposiums, and rev whirls felt very inconsistent today.Hit-
-7 contacts of ducking clipper>diving clipper>rpt
-a few long runs
-omelette first try
-almost atomic ducking
-ripwalk>ripwalk
-thin bubbas and pdx illusions

At the end Luis told me to hit ripwalk>ducking clip>ducking clip>ripwalk
I came close but always messed up the last stepping set.

I wanna work more on whirls, stepping, and spinning/gyro

played footbag in 98 degree sticky wheather and sweated more than ever, did a lot better than I had expected cause I was a little sore

worked mainly on whirls ducking/diving and stepping. Whirls and ducking/diving are getting so much better. Stepping started out pretty good but went to shit after about 5 minutes, it seems to really take more energy than it shoud.

The only thing I was happy about is a few blizzards and blurs, some good osis runs, and ducking clipperx7

I think I will play some more footbag tomorrow if my legs are up to it

hour long garage session today
worked a lot of things-
-spinning, started out doing terrible with it but right when I was going to give up I hit a long string that included infinity>spinning clipper bsos, ducking clipper>spinning clipper bsos, and two other spinning clippers
-little bit of ducking and diving, hit ducking clipperx8
-whirls, mostly practiced linking things into and out of whirls with tricks like butterfly and ducking clipper. hit whirlx3 on strong side and whirlx2 on flip
-stepping, it upsets me that the only way I can step is step at the same time I set intead of putting the setting foot down and then stepping
-flipside pixie
-symposiums, these were horrible today, need to make them more consistent
-atom smasher, the only way I can hit it is to get a really high set, about shoulder height, eventually I want to hit witchdoctor

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 12 Jul 2006 11:43

played footbag for little over an hour

first worked on hitting all the drills I set for myself but they were way too easy, I need to make them longer,they were-
diving clip>infinity>rpt
ducking clip>ss butterfly>rpt
infinity>infinity>ducking clipper>rpt
ducking clipper>ducking clipper>infinity>rpt
whirl>infinity>rpt

after I completed all those I worked a lot of spinning and stepping. Stepping was giving me tons of problems until started to turn my body while doing the dex.After that I worked some atomic and symposiums. Ended up hitting flail bs and ps mirage bs

Then I felt like I was going to collapse so I tried some eggbeaters, no luck

, and fooled around with ducking dyno

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 13 Jul 2006 19:26

played for 45 minutes today
-ripwalk>ducking clip>ducking clip>ripwalk
-spinning clip>infinity>rpt
-almost sidewalk>infinity>rpt

hopefully more tomorrow

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 16 Jul 2006 17:46

played yesterday and today, yesterday I played horrible, I couldnt step at all and my flip atomic was horrible. Today was a little better I got the atomic back and stepping was a little better. I worked today on a sick 3 and I did hit legbeater>ripwalk>spinning osis. I was really happy after I hit it, but I think it needs more variety. besides that I hit one really good long run, spinning clip>ducking clip>rpt, and PLO back to back

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 18 Jul 2006 11:45

I thought after a day off I would have had a lot of energy for today. I was wrong, it was over 110 degrees today with the heat index, I was already sore, and the heat added to my fatigue. I played pretty well despite my soreness, stepping and atomic well pretty good. The only thing I hit that I havent hit before was osisx6. I think I will play tomorrow too.

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 20 Jul 2006 13:33

Cool to see an OK blog! It sounds like you guys are developing quite the shred scene, but someone besides Matt needs to post here! You guys need to come to Texas in October. Our clubs could be friends and go and have fun on adventures!!!

Well if you ever find yourselves in Austin... come shred with us!

yeah, I just changed the title to Oklahoma blog, before it was just mine, but Ive decided to share

Oklahoma R0x0rz!!11
Sweet combos Matt! Hopefully we can shred this weekend.

Toe Gyro/spinning is siiiick! Mad propz, Luis.

Oh yea, I havent been able to shred (with any dexterities) lately, due to a pulled muscle. In my last 'session' I hit:

toe ducking osis > ducking osis
outside kick > far clipper kick > rptx2

toe zulu no-plant clipper bs

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 23 Jul 2006 18:44

There was a session today at riverside, it included ben, louis, and luis

I played the worst Ive played in a while. I ususally play a whole lot better with other people but today that was not the case, I played horrible

The only good things I got from this session was watching some great shred, learning what a swifter is, and learning what little apple is, so I guess I got sumtihn out of this session

If any of you other 3 are reading this, please post what you hit

freestyler4life · Post by **freestyler4life** » 25 Jul 2006 18:03

I played today, drileed the crap out of infinity>ducking clip>osis>rpt and sidewalks/ripwalksdid pretty good after playin so shitty on Sunday and I hit for the first time- ripwalk>sidewalk>rpt!!!

gangsta · Post by **gangsta** » 25 Jul 2006 18:39

Matt, you didnt play THAT bad on Sunday. It was a good session. The shred mats were sweeeet. They definitely absorb alot of the impact.

I wasn't playing to well on Sunday (still recovering from injury) but I did manage to hit backside ripwalk
