5th of June, 2005

Last week I got a haircut and started playing again because my leg wasn't hurting anymore.

I was a bit rusty so I just hit some basic stuff.

I hit Ripwalk > infinity > infinity > ripwalk. That felt pretty cool. I think i've hit it before.

I schooled spinning a bit and now i can see my problem because I filmed it. I also hit spinning clipper > blender (very unsealed so im not counting it). The blender wasnt to flash.

Last night i downloaded some songs from the Aladin soundtrack.

Yesterday I had a session, its been the most funnest one in ages.

Blender > run
Blender > osis
Ripwalk > Blender
A handful of guiltless runs
Whirl > osis rpt
Ripwalk rpt bsos

I was feeling pretty good. My blenders and flip whirls were coming along nicely. I hit a few 10 contact guiltless runs.

I am buying an iPOD mini tomorrow :D

I'm starting to play more often now. For the past 2 months i've only been playing once a week or so because of football, exams and work.

I had a decent shred yesteray. Highlights were:

Ripwalk > Diving clipper rpt
Ripwalk > Sidewalk rpt
Dimwalk > Blur rpt
Flying swirl

My brother got me an itrip for my birthday so now i can listen to all of my favourite music through my very loud radio while shredding it up.

7th of July, 2005

Just had a hard shred. I was using my 12 panel sandbag Kirra sandbag because my 32 was wet.

Todays highlights:

Dyno
I was planning to hit some dyno stuff today. Alex told me they werent hard so i had to try them.

Toe Set Dyno
This came after Clipper set dyno. I found it much easier and it took less tries to hit it.

Blurry Dyno
I footed this so many times before getting it properly. For moves like this i like to either seal them with another move or a handcatch. I was going for the handcatch. I dropped the catch like 3 times and the bag hit me in the face and i missed it (twice). I was so happy when i hit it.

21 infinities
Alex gave me some challenges. One was to hit 15 or 20 infinities (I can't remember). I ended up hitting 21 which was better than my previous record, 8.

Schmoe bsos (first attempt)
I've hit schmoe before on one side. So today i tried it flipside and hit it then tried the other side in the same run and bam. :D

I am very worn out.

Peace.

I had a decent shred 3 days ago after i came home from a run.
I really wanted to whirl more so I finally took the time to practice. I hit pdx whirl bs. I thought they were the but Jesse said my flipside was clean and strong was thin. :/ Hopefully I'll get better at them soon.

My swirls are getting alright, I can hit them more consistantly with thongs on, but when i have my lavers on i feel weird. Theyre a lot of fun.

Blenders are becoming more consitent which is pretty good. A week ago I hit Gyro Clipper > Ripwalk > Blender and Pdx Blender

I came close to Ripped Warrior so many times. I've footed it before, but that was on my weak stepping side (strong butterfly), so I tried the other way and it seemed easier to get the set out. My ducking has been up to shit lately.

Last monday I got my new amp head. It's a Marshall AVT50h. It goes alright. It's pretty loud with my Behringer 200 watt cab.

Peace.

Aww thanks, you guys are cool.

I had a cool session today. I was feeling good but I actually have a cold.
I busted out a Blurry Whirl. It felt good. I sealed it with toe stall > around the world. Before that i hit it but I dropped the hand catch then the attempt straight after that I did the exact same thing. Alex said "your so clumsy". I guess his right :oops:

I also footed Blurriest a couple of times. I remember footing it for the first time like ages ago.

I hit Ripped Warrior today, it was pretty hard. I was stoked when i hit it.

I never really got around to trying simple blender. It sounds pretty hard. I've only hit 1 symp whirl ever. And that was on the opposite side to where I Blurry Whirl. Maybe i should school some symp stuff on my next sesh.

Anyways I might go to bed. I am ill and i must get some sleep.

Peace.

P.S - I came kinda close to this other move

Thanks Joe :D

Today my Dad let me have a session even though I was staying home from school because I was sick.

I didnt do much, i just bummed around and did some tiltless runs. I did a couple of nice spins. I drilled my whirls a bit.

I hit PS Whirl which was given the thumbs up on cleanliness and I also hit tripwalk (first ever quantum move with shoes on).
I kinda came close to Matador > PS Whirl.

I footed Blurriest again.

Things are going fine.

Peace.

Lol, you crack me up Henry :D

Today I had an alright session. I'm still a bit sick and when i thought sweat was dripping down the lower part of my face it may have actually been snot :oops:

Highlights:

Flipside Atom Smasher
I've been avoiding atomic moves for a long time now. I've had bad experiences with them. (Almost broke my ankle twice by slipping). But I finally overcame my fears and hit it. I felt so hardcore.

Legbeater BSOS
Yeah I've been trying atomic moves because Henry and Joe are almost hitting rubberman or have already hit rubberman (i dont know) and i just thought it looked hell sick, so I thought i would get use to some of the moves.

Pdx Whirl Midstring
If you have been reading my blog you may have noticed I've been starting to whirl. I hit this Pixie ss Clipper > Stepping op legover > Butterfly > Pdx Whirl > Osis then something else. It was a bit one sided though.

Flipside Symposium Whirl
This bounced off my foot so many times before i actually hit it. I need to upgrade my insoles because my shins are turning to mush. I'm still using stock ones.

Reverse Swirl
This rolled off my foot a couple of times aswell. After I hit it i packed up my stuff and went back to the house.

I think I was trying reverse twirl and i accidentally kicked the back of my leg and my leg gave way and i fully fell over. I wish i got that on camera. Lucky I was kicking on carpet.

Shred on.

Peace.
