Great to meet you too, Scott. Same goes for Justin, Sam, and Kyle.

Today was seriously interesting. Serious props to the homies in RCS. I had such a great time shredding with you cats for the short while, my apologies for being late.

Justin really made me re-evaluate my style and subsequently my performace. I will take everything he had to say to heart, and hopfully to foot.

My legs were so nervous today, I felt like my game was seriously off. I dont know if i got more than 10 contacts - barf.

Bring on the solo sessions untill next next saturday.

1 1/2 hour solo session in some brick circle under tall trees near a music building.

This session was mega fun now that I've had to relearn clippers. Everthing out of them is much easier. For example, osi are easier to catch because the clipper set is further out from my support leg and a tad more near my butt/hip bone.

Didn't do any pixie moves, dlos, drifters, or ducking; really just went to bop school. If I play this well everyday, I won't be in bop school much longer. That's probably the lamest sentence i've ever said.

Playing this early sucks because you can't play again for the rest of the day.

peacezilla.

1 1/2 solo session #2 on the big indoor basketball court.

My knees were pretty sore from the earlier session, so i warmed up via immobile bike in the gym. I laughed inside at these two guys and two girls who met in the dorms and, as a date, came to the gym to work out. The ladies did lots of ass workouts. When the girls were tired, they'd go to a random machine, but the boys would jump on it real quick before them and say "Wow, I haven't done this machine in ages."

I just tasted the green tea viatamin water I purchased and it tastes like anus. Not that I eat anus - regularly.

I went to go shred on the court which was pretty dim in terms of lighting and being cold. I starting sweating balls in no time. It was a pretty basic session, tried to see how many of whatever I could do in a row. Let's say I'm not stoked enough on my performace to note any records.

Shout out to Big Add Chad D - some 9 foot 40 inch basketball player stuck his fat ass head through the doorway to insist that he fucked up my run by slurrying "HACKYSACK, HACKYSACK, HACKYSACK." I have a feeling he meant to say "HA..KEE..SACK, HA..KEE..SACK, HA..KEE..SACK".

Sometimes I wish I had a crossbow.

I hope to play tomorrow evening when my first day of death[class/work] ends.

Peace ya.

2 Hour solo session

fairy mirage, fairy ss butterfly, fairy op butterfly.

smear > butterfly > ss butterfly > sidewalk > far legover > random tiltless stuff for a while > ripwalk

Stoked on hitting something stepping on both sides again. Have only done it a few times lately. Again props to justin for the new clipper technique. Stoked on hitting fairy shit, I really enjoy it. My flipside is hilarious, the foot just flails around.

Joy.

damn you play a lot of footbag!

sampotter · Post by **sampotter** » 29 Aug 2006 09:56

The only way to get good.

Flipside, flipside, flipside! If you want advice on fairy, ask me next time we play.

save.cullen · Post by **save.cullen** » 29 Aug 2006 10:35

That'd be great sam. And yeah, Scott. Footbag is a great way to end the day for me

save.cullen · Post by **save.cullen** » 29 Aug 2006 21:16

Little douche bag session tonight.

Something wasn't right. Knee pain from fairies, and shin pain from stepping.

Please help! Haha =p

Very fun hour long session today.

Strings were longer than normal on this nice breezy sunny day. I am very excited that this first week of school is ending. I feel like I am loosing it slowly.

props on quantum mirage, get that bsos and shuffle it in with your pixie stuff.

I keepsit reahl. Ah ah.

PS: Stop doing fairy sets incorrectly. Learn from the Grand Master Sam Potter.

Haven't posted in 2 days.

Had a session yesterday at our college festival thing, showing people around our juggling club the ropes of footbag. Had a delish run with ripwalk on my flip, and sidewalk and blur on my strong. People thought It was interesting, but the people spinning huge rods on fire around their bodies were a tad more cool. Whatever, props to fire.

Went to the gym to kick today. It seems that it is girls volleyball season. I don't mind.

I stopped doing fairy sets the night I started, I dont plan on doing them again untill I meet with Grand Master's Potter and Dale.

Nothing off the wall to note or put an arrow to today, I really have just been having fun with tiltless, seeing how smooth I can get, and how long I can go. I hit 40 today (with 5 of each of the atw's, count as you will).

Anyway; till tomorrow

Props to 40 contacts. Props to fire.

Glad to know you're having a blast, albeit solo. Keep the shred alive.

Session number two for the day lasted for about an hour or so.

atomsmasher

legbeater

parkwalk > ss butterfly > sidewalk > far legover > pick up > fairy mirage

So happy tonight. My right toe set atomic feels real good, and my right set fairy doesn't hurt, looks cleaner, and feels like the right way. I'm really happy with my progress.

David Morawski · Post by **David Morawski** » 03 Sep 2006 00:15

Nice atomic stuff, holmes. Atomsmasher is quite fat, I'm sure you made it look mad stylie. I hate to be the one to say this but.....flipside

Glad to hear you're happy. Happiness is good. You deserve happiness.

I wanna hear about how happy you are with your left sets

<3 Heavy D

PS: Last best run of the summer (probably? I hope?) ...here's a haiku:

They're the best around.
The crumbcakes were fresh tonight.
You can't get me down.

smear (flip) > butterfly > ripwalk > far legover > smear > butterfly > ripwalk (flip)

other than that, it was just a dandy time listening to rjd2 and shredding.
