Did a bunch of variations of those, except for the pickup ones (basically I just mashed those drills together).

Worked on getting clean Illusions on my flip. I think they're super clean on my strong, I just have to work on pointing my toes on my flip. Same with flip whirl (although my strong whirl isn't so hot)

Rev Whirls are good. I can bsos them x like a billion, super clean (although they're hard to do unclean)

got Pixie Knee Bumping (Pimpy?) ss Clipper so like, right foot pixie, left knee bump, right foot clipper. Got that bsos...

Also dod is getting really easy, now that I've been working on ss butterflies (from toe).

That's about it. Still really working my tiltless drills, but I'm incorporating a little (very little) of my old stuff into it.

Took a break from tiltless today, had a session wtih Cody at the town fair. Filmed with the school camera and he's gonna make a video out of it. Got some pretty artistic shots I think.

My first time at the ocean:

Hey thanks for all the kind words I could not have asked for better roommates. I had a blast getting to know you guys anyways here some pictures.

Post by **Zac Miley** » 03 Sep 2007 13:20

Thanks for the pictures Cody.

Very last blog on the page. Whew.

filmed for the video again yesterday, I think I played a little bit better although I've suddenly become camera-shy. It's weird, I used to play really well on camera and now I'm just like, not playing good. Everything takes more tries than it should.

I watched all of the footage we got (nearly two hours, it's a retarded amount of footage) and I think my style and form is much better, but I'm still wayyyyy one sided and it pisses me off. I thought I did a lot more flip pixie than I do. We're filming again tomorrow at another fair, and then I'm staying the night at Cody's so we might film some more there.

I'm not improving as fast as I want to. For the past few days when I haven't been playing I was of the mindset that I could get just as good as Vasek with enough practice. I don't practice enough. I don't do anything enough (sleep, draw, footbag, homework...). I still sorta think I can do that, but I've been playing like shit and my mood is reflecting it. Ah well. AP Art tomorrow, yippee.

Clipper x 100 bs (only one drop on flip, went past 100 on strong)
Infinity>SS Butter>rpt x 100 contacts (dropped a few times, I would guess 7?)
Mirage>Legover>rpt x 100 contacts (dropped a few times, more than 7. I hate legovers)

Tried to get some clean whirls on both sides. Failed miserably on flip. Strong is going to be promising sorta soon.

Tripwalk, Paradon bsos (both midstring, both awesome)
Flip full rev Atomsmasher

Pretty good session. I didn't play at all last weekend, just played disc golf.

Every time my stepmom does ANYTHING, it makes me want to punch her in the face.

And I'm a pretty happy person. huh.

I really wish I could play footbag right now, I need to calm down. My knees are feeling kinda weird, I pushed real hard last session.
