Twunk

Post by Senor Grommet »

The story:

So about 6 months ago, I was trying this move over and over, but I couldnt really hit it. The closest I got was pretty damn close tho: the bag rolled off the tip of my laver after rising just slightly. Anyway, Ryan Thomass then sees my vid of me almost hitting it and proceeds to try himself. He posts his closest attempt, which was about as close as my posted, failed attempt. I am unsure of whether he has yet hit this move cleanly, but now I have. Im sure its been hit before, but it sure felt damn good anyway (my back doesn't feel so good tho :()!

twunk is my own name for this and I dont care if people like it or not, or want to call it something different. I know it doesnt even need a name, but since I hit it tonight, I wanna give it a name, at least for one night.
My name: Jeremy Mirken, AKA Chocolatey Shatner, AKA jerk enemy rim.

I kick it with trunk chef elf and liz luck key my.

PS Drifter??!

Whoa cool dude!

Personally, I'd just call it PS Drifter.

Unless I'm wrong, of course.

I think it kinda works because your hips go "Twunk." But other than that it sounds kinda stupid, haha. I think it fits though. Keep it if you get to name it.

no, no. I dont want to officially name it "twunk," which btw refers to the twist of the trunk; I just wanna be able to say i hit twunk and for people to say, "ps drifter?" And I say, yeah! Twunk." And they say: "tight!"

Man actually that's some cool footbag slang... now whenever people do sweet PS Drifters (maybe even just Drifter) from now on I'm gonna be like "Sweet... twunkstyle."

Hahahaha.

Definitely a sweet move, it feels really nice to hit this. The name Symple can be a little misleading sometimes though. :P

That's a sweet move...not a sweet name though.

It should also be recognized that it's not a "PS Drifter". It's a Symple Paradox Drifter (the paradox is that there' nothing "symple" about it :lol: )
