Props on BS dimwalk!

Just watch footbag videos on quicktime and you can click the left and right arrows to go frame by frame slow motion.

Watching what other people do with their clipper foot might help.

I did this to learn flip spinning because I was spinning wrong and it helped alot.

Thanks holly and obara

I'll go do that and see if it will help any. I think it would be easier if the dam foot wasn't crooked, i think i might figure out how to do a dragon with the foot as some other people mentioned I should.

well iuniveristy policy says everybody thats their has to be documented so i was documented now i jhalf to go explain my case to some one now. I think I'll get out of it. like I'm currently making a documentry on college parties ect. except that night I wasn't filming anything I just went down to see what was going on in I went to the restroom then was about to leave and poof all hell broke loose. so my ra vouching for me that i was sick because I came down to her asking her for caugh drops and stuff and another ra said I was sober so i should be fine hopefully.

so school has been very busy with work and very fun. I just won president of my dorm. so thtas pretty cool. since I can throw events and stuff since I'm president I want to throw a big concert. my freind jim came up with a name called crossstock. so if I can get this approved its going to be one crazy day. I was also thinking if I get that event approved we could throw a footbag jam in toledo. at the univeristy of toledo.

some stuff I hit recently.

:arrow: parkwalk
:arrow: spinning clipper
:arrow: double spin I get close to triple but for some reason loose it at the end.
:arrow: I also hit clean whirl. like my whirl not kicky any more its alot more controlled.

I've been working on spins alot. I don't get dizzy anymore. so thats a plus. also I've cleared up my clipeprs alot. I can do 6 in a row I'm working on to get 10. I figure sooner or later I'll get it

props!

Double spin is a leap from single spin.
Triple spin is just crazy disgustingly sick.

If you hit it I award you mega super dupern props. :)

so I'm starting the university of toledo footbag club I have 5 people to join including myself. Right now I'm writing up a paper to hand out to the members on websites to goto, professional players, gear, videos to watch and stuff like that is their anything else I need to add.

These are all people who saw me playing around campus and only know of and play "hacky sack" so if any body could give me some ideas on how to introduce footbag ect to theme I would be much appreciated.

thats why I was putting this paper togeather but I'm not for sure what to exactly do.

So the university of Toledo footbag club is getting off the 1st couple of practices not a lot of people showed up because of fall break hit and peoples schedules. So I finally am getting everything together. Were having our practice every Friday and any other time anyone wants to play. The people I’ve been playing with our getting better doing alternating foot stalls, around the world, wrap, and clipper stall so I feel like the club will work out good and hopefully grow into a bigger club.
On the other hand I’ve just been practicing more lately, I really haven’t hit anything new I’ve just been cleaning up tricks and working on string length.

Have you gotten Aaron Cumming for your footbag club? I don't know him personally, but I saw in the michigan forum he's from Toledo and is pretty good.

so for whirl its a 3 add trick, so if you do not delay the bag is it still 3 adds? like why do you half to delay the bag? I can delay the bag I just usually don't.
