so i have been playing at least an hour everyday this week and i can already see it improving my game.
last night I had a really good session where i did a lot of drilling. just mostly titless stuff but trying to improve my string lenght. i school swirls for a while and hit a few on my flipside and about the same on my strong. my flip whirls where coming along nicely. also i was hit drifter >drifter like it was nothing.
near the end of the session i thought i would go for some 3 dexs. i hit somg, stepping same eggbeater (wet dream?), stepping same dlo, pigbeater, and i footed both bedwetter and fog.
it has been raining really hard and the basement is kind of flooded where i play. i droped my bag in a puddle while playing last night like 6 times.
i should really write in this thing more. recently since the weather has been so nice i have been going to the park near my house to kick outside. i have been getting lots of attention from people doing random things at the park. i was told i should put a hat on the ground becuase people would give me money. but i just like to play.
recently hit

blurywhirl bsos
pdx drifter bsos

i want to goto another footbag event so bad its killing me. those are the most fun times of my life.
i had a really good session at the marshbank yesterday (tj we need to play there) i ended up playing for 4 hours with a bunch of my friends there. i worked on spinning for a while and i came up with
spinning near legover
spinning near pickup
gyro far legover
gyro far pickup
gyro same osis
ripwalk x 7 again
9 contacts of sidewalk>ripwalk rpt
I went up to lansing to kick with lisa (kickin_it) and tony (xxtony77) i stayed there for the weekend and had a really good time. lisa's game is looking more solid and its just getting better the more she kicks. Tony has a really good base from what i saw. stepping and pixie on both sides. he has bops down well and usually has tiltless runs of about 10 which is good. he is also constantly learning new sets and new tricks
when i was in lansins i hit.
nucluear ss mirage bs
sumo
nuclear butterfly
nuclear ss butterfly
sailing butterfly
E-walk
fog , footed it flipside
spinning symp mirage
spinning whirl
atomic symp mirage (witchdoctor?)
yesterday i was playing at the park and a cop came throught then stoped next to me. I thought he was going to tell me to move my car (which was playing music and parked illegally in 3 spots) instead he asked me about footbag. As it turns out his son who is 15 just brought home a hacky sack so the officer was interested. i did some basic kicks for him then showed him some runs. he replied with i play too much. but whatever, at least he knows what it is now.
That is what I thought to, but someone told me otherwise.
Gyro is a spinning followed by a dex with a near component, which would explain why spinning p. blender is the way it is.
Also, gyro clipper sets from one foot, and delays on the other, or the near side, after the set.
Thus, (I think anyway) that a spinning clipper sets and delays on the same foot, while gyro, as I said above, sets from one foot and delays on the other. But, what do I know...
I was under the impression that pandora was gyro pickup, essentially making it gyro far pick up since it is set, dexed and delayed, all with the same foot. And, that all gyro implied was the direction of the body spin and the fact that there is no plant during it; while inspinning just implied the opposite direction of the gyro spin. Also I was under the impression that spyro was a spinning move in the same direction as gyro, but with a plant? Am I completely confused about this or what?
so i went to florida last week from tuesday till saturday. I didnt get to kick with sam or ashley because i was pretty busy when i was down there. but i didnt play once in my new G-units. i only played for about half and hour because it was so hot i felt like i was going to pass out. but i managed to hit blury drifter.
Can't wait to hang out with you this time. PM me some details about when you're getting in and where, also if you'll need a ride to our place. Details details details... the more I know the better I can help. Laterz!

my freind drew has started to get into footbag, he has a pair of lavers and we have been kicking this last week. so far he has hit smear, dimwalk, mirage, symp mirage, clipper, and butterfly all in a week. its all on one side but he is getting better which is awesome.
while we have been kicking i have hit.
symp whirl bs
symple swirl almost bs
butterfly swirl
and some other stuff i cant remember.
i have started playing 2 hours a day everyday. and most of my sessions are now focusing on both sides. my game feels a lot stronger.
I couldnt hit my 2 hour mark today, I mean there is still time in the day and I only need another 30 min so maybe I will school ducks and spins later tonight.
Over the last 3 sessions I have hit a bunch of flip atomic stuff
I'm going to be busy for a little bit, but we really need to get together and pick a time/place to shred this summer.
