Haha thanks Andrew. Weaving is fun

EDIT: Dont want to start a page on such a retarded post.

THe last two days i have just been messing around with my friends.

On tuesday me and 3 other friends were playing poker. We were playing dealers choice, and made up a game called Ohio. It is omaha, but you can use any amount of your whole cards, instead of being forced to use two and two only. It was pretty great, we were just laughing the whole time. Then one of my friends had to go to a track meet, so we called another friend and we all went bowling. It was vulgar bowling night, whenever someone went up to make a shot, someone would scream something like "Cunt muffin" and no one could get any good shots off

.

Then we went back to another friends house and watched me myself and Irene. God that movie is hilarious. I love when she is about to get up, and hes like "Where you goin cheese tits?"

. Then the little nerdy kid is looking at him and he says "Whats your problem fucker?" Haha he is so awesome. After the movie i biked home with one of my friends, he was pissed about his girl problems.

Yesterday i was with the same group of friends. We started off bowling, and we only bowled two games til we got bored. SO we went back and listened to Brian Regan. he is a hilariousl comedian. i recommend that you download some of his stuff. After that i got 5 other people to come play hackysack 4 square. Man was it fun!!!! Everyone loved it! We played that the first person to kick it had to say a word starting with A, then the next person B, and so on. Man it was mentally and physically challenging. We had some sweet hack-offs. I am gonna look for some cool rules. We played foursquare for 2 hours! Wow. IT was so so so fun. Even people who didnt know how to kick well enjoyed it. we need to do that more often.

Yesterday was awesome. My friends are great. We can just hang out without a TV/video games or anything and just talk about random stuff and it is hilarious! We got into an argument about the Fantastic 4. Kristjan said that the Thing got ripped off for his super powers, and that nobody likes him. We spent about an hour arguing about it. I think the Thing has one of the coolest powers. He is like the hulk but made of rock.

Gonna shred HARD today. What should i hit?

oh man. Just got in from a really really hot sweaty session. I started off kicking for 5 minutes. It must have been like, 500 kicks. So after i was warmed up i worked on legbeaters and atomic stuff, cause they are really rusty from the 2 weeks i didnt hit them.

I thought that i should hit legbeater>drifter bsos

I ended up hitting legbeater>drifter>ducking pdx mirage>legbeater>drifter>ducking pdx mirage>run. I cant blur well so ducking pdx mirage is my 4 add bail.

Then i really really reallly realllllllalldsllalalallayyllllllllllllly wanted to hit gyro butterfly back to back. It is such a hard link. I cant believe how hard this link is. like, go try it. I am not kidding. It took me about 25 minutes, but finally, i hit it!!!!!!!!!!!!

GYRO BUTTERFLY BACK TO BACK BABY

just had a really sweet session. Only about an hour cause its so friggin hot. Wow. Well i decided to work on string length for the first 10 minutes. I have not done any legovers/mirages, tiltless stuff in over a month, so i went for tiltless first.

My first and only try i got to 40 and stopped.

Then i went to BOP runs.

Contacts
32
15
18
57!

Then i stopped. So it actually only lasted about 4 minutes

Then i went and hit drifter>pdx mirage>atomsmasher>legbeater>ducking butterfly>ducking pdx mirage

After that i worked on shuffle, mostly rubberman parts

i hit atomsmasher>legbeater both sides easy
then i hit blur>atomsmasher>legbeater one side
and blur>atomsmasher other side.

YAY

Nice! I hit 50-something BOPs today too! I really wanted to work on big tricks and stuff, so I was like, "Alright, gotta hit 50 BOPs before I can do ANYTHING," and so I did.

*Jethro* · Post by ***Jethro*** » 08 Jul 2005 16:30

Good work on all your shred, Henry. Especially Gryo butter B2B (you know we like it like that

). That was a challenege i gave you!

HG · Post by HG » 09 Jul 2005 16:16

My god. It is so incredibly hot out. I can only play for like, an hour tops every day. I got home from a friends house at about 3 today, then cruised modified. Then i ate some chinese food, sat around for a long long time. And then decided to go play footbag. Everything was so horrible today. These are the days i loathe. My atomic starting on my left toe sucked, and i kept snagging the bag. I dont really have a flip atomic, but i may develop one. Stinky. Then i got like, 8 contacts of ripwalk>infinity>infinity repeat. That is not a lot. Nothing was working. i could barely even do ducking clippers. THe most i got was 11. Osis sucked. Spinning clippers didnt work.

It is so weird, cause days like this make me feel like i lost everything that i ahve drilled over the past month, but in a day or two i will come back better than ever, even though i havent been doing well. I love footbag. Your sessions always even out. And if they arent even, you have more good ones than bad.

HG · Post by HG » 10 Jul 2005 06:16

Hehe just had a killer 50 minute session. It lasted from 8:10 AM to 9:00 AM. I went outside wanting to do what Dave told me to do. Dont stop until you are satisfied. And once you are satisfied, dont stop until you are so tired you cant move. I did just that.

I started out a little slow because it was 8 in the morning. I couldnt get many contacts on BOP runs. I averaged around 20-25

but my best was around 35. My osises felt good. Unrelated: Oh i have a question. Last night i was washing my year old abshire, which is really really choice. As i was gently, gently squeezing it to get the suds out, i saw suds coming out of the middle of the panels! Does that mean that tiny tiny holes are forming? Cause i cant see them. Someone help.

So after my BOP runs i started to work on atomics, cause my flip ones are really really really sucking. I am setting them really far forward and i cant help it much. I need to go back to lavers. I am getting my red ones back tomorrow i think. Since i have good insoles now i should be able to use them. So after some really really crappy atomic runs, my knee was hurting from having to reach too far forward for the dex.

I decided to work on drifters cause i cant ever get them really dialed. I started out just doing them. drifter>hand>op drifter>hand repeat. I was doing pretty well. then i did drifter>infinity>infinity>repeat. I hit that 7 or 8 times. Next i did drifter>ducking clip>ducking clip>repeat. Hit that 4 times. Next i worked on ripwalk>drifter>drifter>repeat. I couldnt hit it, but i did hit ripwalk>drifter bs lots of times.

drifters
drifter>infinty>infinity repeat
drifter>ducking clip>duckign clip repeat
ripwalk>drifter bs

Then i was so so so hot and tired. Its about 95 degrees Fahrenheit and really humid, cause wisconsin is always humid. The weather sucks so bad. Back when it was spring i could shred for 3 to 4 hours solo easily, but now that it is so hot it is a challenge to go an hour.

Since i was too tired to do hardcore shred, i decided to hit 20 osises and then go inside. First try 11. next try 19

Next try i hit 8, and then i go. 10....11....12.....13....14... i was so in the zone. 15......16......17......18.....19......20........21!!! I hit 21 osises.. I think i tied my record! Yayayayayayayayaya. I cant wait til i get my lavers back, the toe on the CT 300 is crappy. That is where my atomic problems come from. you know how on atomics you dont really set the bag with your toe, it kind of jumps off from the hop? yeah the toe slants down so the bag flies really low and forward. Atomic is my favorite set and im really good at it, or i used to be

Uranos · Post by **Uranos** » 10 Jul 2005 08:22

Props on your drifters and osis.

YOu should PM Richie Abshire for that one too

Nathan · Post by **Nathan** » 10 Jul 2005 11:39

hey, I think you could make your ct300 toe box alot better if you laced them up starting on the third hole instead of the second, which is how it looks like you're lacing them now. Also, have you taken all the padding out of the tonque? I think that'll make it better as well.

Nathan

HG · Post by HG » 11 Jul 2005 11:29

Well i give up on my ct 300s. The left toe is fine but the right toe is just ridiculously bad. i drop on some clippers cause of the dip. I am back in my lavers baby! I love them!

So i just had a really short session. it was cut short because i ate a bowl of cottage cheese with salsa

I had kind of a mix between stomach ache and heartburn, not a good feeling. I worked on osis and got 20 osises first try. Then i moved to drifters. My knee was hurting from soccer earlier, me and another kid got caught up. my spike got caught in his laces and my knee just got ripped to shreds.

First try on consec drifters i got 3. Then i went to other side and got 3. So drifter x3 bs

Then i worked on pdx drifters.

I hit pdx drifter bs, my "flip" is definitely even with my strong. Then i hit it bsos!

After that i thought that legbeater>pdx drifter would be a cool link, so i hit it bs!

Then i hit legbeater>pdx drifter bsos!

hahaahahahaha lavers you are the love of my life. why did i ever feel the need to stray from your path of holiness?

Short hand

osis x20
drifter x3 bs
pdx drifter bs
pdx drifter bsos
legbeater>pdx drifter bs
legbeater>pdx drifter bsos
bad bowl of cottage cheese/salsa
bad knee
GREAT SESSION

Hey, I LOVE cottage cheese and I LOVE salsa but i've never thought of combining the two. once again Hendog has inspired me to try something new

JaJoo · Post by **JaJoo** » 11 Jul 2005 11:50

Henry your last session was good

Osis 20 times:) props for you. I can only 4 or 6 osis

Also legbeater>pdx drifter bsos sounds great

Maybe you will try driffter>pdx drifter [rpt]

Peace

HG · Post by HG » 11 Jul 2005 12:29

Haha kevin you rock. I am not even close to that refracion drill we are racing to

Thanks a lot Mateusz! Yeah i will try hard for that drifter drill.

Sporatical_Distractions · Post by **Sporatical_Distractions** » 11 Jul 2005 12:34

yeah, that drill will be the most fives i've ever hit in succession. this is gonna be a long running challenge

HG · Post by HG » 11 Jul 2005 15:33

Sorry to burst your bubble Kevin, But refractions are only a 3 add, and they dont get paradox

I thought i hit a six add when i hit pixie duckign refraction

Sporatical_Distractions · Post by **Sporatical_Distractions** » 11 Jul 2005 15:48

i know they don't get pdx, but isn't it a four. an osis with a dex before it?
so stepping refractions are 5's

HG · Post by HG » 11 Jul 2005 15:52

No "there is no dex" the way i do it it sure feels like there is, but look on footbag.org in the 3 add section. Its considered like a wrap with a spin

Sporatical_Distractions · Post by **Sporatical_Distractions** » 11 Jul 2005 15:55

maybe if we do it crispy enough, it can be a four. instead of stepping opp refraction, do shooting osis

wait......then that would be a five. DAMNIt!!! I can't win
