I'd call it frontside symple downtime omelette. can anyone else think of an instance of a symple dex with another dex between the first dex and the catch?

Had another session today...Byrin was there for about half of it, but I wasn't sure if he wanted me to post anything he hit. So it's just me again.

Kinda a varied session...the video starts with two more tricks similar to the "symple omelette". The second one is questionable at best, but I threw it in there for everyone to see anyway.

Then a new trick for me.

Then a drill.

Then, it gets into this concept I lovingly call TOAST. I see it as the toe equivalent of clipper...it's basically a very late gyro toe (as osis is a very late gyro clipper). I've been toying with it here and there, and it's definitely possible to hit loads of things into and out of it.

Just gotta build up consistency. :?

Keep in mind that I consider a "raked" toast sloppy, just as a carried osis would be. I think the best ones in this video are the ones I ducked.

Pixie ss > pixie ss was pretty awful, but I put it in there anyway. :D


Then two tricks. 8)

1st thoughts:

-Basically all but 1 of the gyro toes were rakey in my opinion. mIKE hANSEN DOES THOSE ALL THE TIME AND THEY LOOK BETER THAN YOURS. (sorry caps).

-Pixie, huh? Props on all that stuff, those drills are very hard. Now go master a hard set.

-Very much props on symp tapping symp egg bs.

What can I say? Niiiiice! :) I love these downtime concepts you invented a lot. I tried yesterday to hit something like this but it's imposible :D. Mad props on Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure BS!

Too bad you are hitting all this shit barefoot. I don't know why but I'll like it much better in shoes :).

Toesis

Post by bustinjustin »

Toast huh?
I didn't know if this name has a set concept yet but I've just been calling it toesis since its an osis caught on the toe. I was using toesis because it was a good name of the bigger concepts. Like blurry ducking toesis I call halatoesis. There's a bevy of diseases with toesis in the name that I was going to use for the bigger concepts, like spinning ducking toesis.
But I guess you could do the same with toast, like butter toast (which makes more sense for butterfly toesis), or powder toast, or jelly toast.
so maybe call the individual move toesis and the bigger concepts toast?
what do you think, cuz I don't know, I just love doing that concept.

Kevin, you're the man... I love those new style moves... the words symple and symposium don't really do them justice, explanation-wise... how complicated.

big props, this new video was a lot of fun to watch.

I don't exactly like the name toesis. I think the toe comparison to osis would be pendulum released xbd. that's just me, though.

Keep pushing, this is a lot of fun to watch. Shoes are cool, but variety is cooler. I definitely encourage you to keep doing your own thing (not that you need any encouragement in that department, eh? ;) you seem to do it enough on your own).

Sporp!
BRICK!

Yeah, I just realised that it should say osis, not clipper.

Also, thanks everyone.
