Its has been really hot lately, hasn't it? A friend and I played less than a half hour and he still puked as we were getting in the car. Thats hardcore.

I like all your ducking and spinning. Nice atom and blurry rev whirl. I think you really need to hop into your clippers more.

(the music is "Kiss the Sun" by the Atomic Bitchwax my 2nd favorite band of all time

)

Some cool shiz in there. Nice to see some spins by you. Ducking and stepping looked really solid. Saw a few really good links. I agree summer heat is getting pretty redonkulous, you're lucky you're not in Texas

Makes me want to make one last short video before worlds.

Rock on.

I felt a little dirty watching you pour water over yourself.

Skills look good. I did notice (at least in this vid) your "bigger" stuff is pretty one-sided. I'm sure you already got that advice, but really... you don't want to be 100 3 and 4 add tricks into your game and realize your weakside isn't up to par.

That was really nice! Reverse Whirls for the win!

Your clippers are sometimes a little strange.
Look at 0:50 after the stepping far rev whirl, its perfect.
Then look 0:57 after the legbeater, its way to close to your foot and your knees even touch.
Also I think you play to much on your heels, playing on your toes will do infinities easier (I just read your post in Erik Chan's blog) and it will make your style look better. I do it aswell..

Just my 50 cents..

Good video except I didn't like when you did osis>clipper. I think you should change it to osis>butterfly

i know i cant seem to pound it into my damn brain that i cant keep bailing to that.

i know why i do it though. when i do osii i do it because my momentum is rotating that way, not because i want to do an osis. and when i do clippers its because im trying to set up for stepping and im not that great at stepping out of butterflies on either side.

im working on all this stuff though during sessions, don't get me wrong.
