my mr. sandbag got a hole in it the other day... so i decided to patch it up with glue... instead today i busted out the old peace signed hackey sack, and just kicked it around... i nailed a few tricks, but it was nice to bring back the good old sacks, just like in school before i knew of footbag...

hopefully tomorrow my new mr.'s and abshire bag will come

got my 2 new mr. sandbag's yeserday, one for my friend... he'll pay me back (blue/black and red/black), they're pretty well done. practiced from 5-6, mainly did atw, but made big improvement on my mirage and clipper... still can't get the clipper down though
i nailed about 2 mroe pendulums and got 1 of those cool tricks, where u stall the bag all around ur foot into an osis, but i can't do osis, so i did:
inside > toe > outside > heel > inside > toe > atw > failed mirage
i was surprised i got that far... :)


yay, much improvement

GOT MY ABSHIRE!!! a few days ago

and was recently breaking it in... plenty 'a good helping of washing and kicking, YA!
this bag is so sick
royal blue hexes, yellow, red, green, orange, purple pents (2x each)

that totals my bag count to 2 mr. Sandbags, 1 abshire, and like 8 actual hacky sacks... that are always fun to just kick around once in a while and stall and shit... like today when i forgot my bags at home, i still had my hacky sack in my pack, so i was kickin it and pwning... like usual

awwwww yeah, also i have a design i'm pretty sure will win mowley's competition for his logo search... etc (here it is):
Image

ya, gaea is the greek goddess of earth, also a kickass name for footbags, "GAEA footbags by Elliot Mowle"
i'm gonna try to recreate it using photoshop.. but he angles of hte "G" are weird and it'll take me forever... eh!

I'm posting in your blog!!!

Keep working on clippers with broken in bags so you don't get too frustrated with roll-off. Keep up the work on legovers too. What is your inside kick record?

yep... this past weekend i went upstate (newyork) to the berkshires to visit my sister at sleepaway camp, and see our friends in new hampshire, just half an hour away.

at the camp i had a pretty hard shred session! people were gathering around me, parents and kids 'n all (since it was visiting day), man i love performing infront of people!

other wise... i've just been practicing on my left foot, and alternating kicks and stalls... i've put clippers down for a break for a bit, but we'll see him rear his ugly head up again real soon

yep... today not much happened but!!!! I HIT AN ILLUSION W0000000000T!

i was so proud of myself

i'm still working on mirages since i can't master them like my atw's but i can do them consistently (when i do nail them)... i also am improving with my left foot, i made 20 alternating kicks between both feet today, OH YA KICKASS!

then after work my friend came over and we had an hour shred session..
...wow he sux, well he got new shoes, BUT NOT LAVERS! i told him and he's like, fux taht, i'm not paying 50 bux for shoes, so he went to modells and bought 25 dollar shoes... he's a toal n00b!
and i'm like, 50 dollar lavers are more than worth the cost!, phsht! so he is getting more and more into his hobbies (freerunning(parkour), contact juggling, and unicycling)... he does footbag but not to the obsessive extant that i have.

all in all another day, another trick

Haha, your username and avatar totally fit you. Good job, that must have felt so satisfying.
