I'm in Iraq now in a hospital in Baghdad due to four retinal ulcer's in my right eye. It shouldn't be that long before I'm up and running again but I'm very dissipointed in myself because my unit in Najaf has just scene too much shit for me to be gone. Anyway, I'm deprived and I'm stuck here without even a pair of shoes or one of my abshires. All my gear is in my seabag which is somewhere in southern Iraq and I don't know when the hell I will be getting it.
Well the torment has gone on long enough and I decided, screw it, I'm a marine and I can improvise. So I took some 550 cord out of my gear and tied it around my angles to hold my flip flops on and made a really shitty bag out of a rubber juggling ball which I drained of most of it's insides and sealed with electrical tape (Ghetto). It worked like shit in the beginning but as I wore it down it broke in enough to get about 10 contacts of just juggling. Some soldiers joined in after about a half hour and one stayed for like two hours kicking with me, he couldn't hit shit for tricks but he could do an atw kick and a number of consecutives. I hit a double atw kick with this setup and the kid flipped. The next day I was surprised that I was actually sore from just kicking and not really doing any tricks but that's what you get for not playing for weeks.
The next day I went out with another ghetto rigged bag but this time barefoot to see if any improvement was there. I managed to hit a few combos like mirage > atw > legover, but it was so hard to stall I had to focus everything on that. I also hit a dlo, smear, magellan, and assassin with this shitty setup but the stall on the assassin ended up like a rake because it's so damn hard to stall a rubber ball barefoot (try it I dare you). Oh yeah, there was this Kurdish Iraqi special forces guy who I was (trying to) communicate with who I introduced to footbag. He says he has never seen anything like it but was very impressed with just legovers and the such. Soccer is the biggest sport in Iraq and almost everyone plays it, maybe footbag will be big once this country is free from all this shit (never?). Hell, these kids have nothing to do anyway, they could all be future world champions. Oh wellI just hope when I get back to my unit that the seabags are available, maybe I'll find a sewing kit around here and make a bag out of a sock....

Oh my god I remember that I played footbag in Hawaii when we stopped for training there AND I DIDN'T WRITE IT DOWN.
I CANT REMEMBER WHAT I HIT!!~ Damn, but I do remember people being like Whoa and having a $5 and a $1 offered to me that I politely declined. I got mad props at the place there I was playing in Wia Ke Ke, however you spell that shit, aw good times...
LOL, I was walking down the street here in the demilitarized zone today and these Iraqi kids always run up to you with bootleg dvd's and shit of "I robot", and "SpiderMan 2" trying to sell you it yelling "Mista Mista" but I was walking buy this army soldier and this little kid like 5 years old was trying to sell him shit and he said "Touch me again and I'll beat your ass" and he was dead serious like he was going to do it what a hero.

Hope your home soon man, Best of luck
Damn Maraxus, i really hope this war in Iraq (now called the conflict in Iraq, what bullshit) stops soon. This is annoying and it puts innocent people (like yourself and many others) in danger.
GAHHH! Just hope you make it back safe (as well as anyone else that may be out there).

Yeah I can't wait to be back home, but there are many people here who have been in country much longer and there is always this thread of being extended. Anyway, I got my seabag back the other day and broke out my digital camera, footbag shoes, abshires, and some socks and just grinned for the remainder of the hour before I began playing. It's as if I hadn't played in like two days instead of like two months. It was crazy.Shredster wrote:Damn Maraxus, i really hope this war in Iraq (now called the conflict in Iraq, what bullshit) stops soon.

Well I got shin splints from playing twice a day the last half a week so I need to take a day off but it's not like I have a choice. I am now posting twelve hours a day for guard so it looks like my other twelve will consist of eating and sleeping until I have a day off. I've been thinking alot about footbag lately and I just watched that new vasek worlds video and went okay, I need to catch up. So I will be drilling myself to hit shit that I have never hit before and throwing alot more fives in my runs.
The other day I hit spinning clip > spinning butterfly > spinning osis > infinity > gyro clip > spinning clip > spinning butterfly > spinning osis. That was pretty sweet and I think my spins are pretty much nailed for now so I need to begin consentrating on bigger dex moves and symposiums. I did a small drill like PS Mirage > butterfly > ripwalk > ripwalk repeat the other day, I think I'll make some more shit up.
Before I got my shoes and bags back I thought I was going to lose everything like I did in boot camp and take forever to get it back but this is great, I feel really good about my game and want to push myself. My flipside is alot stronger now that I try and throw and hit everything both sides, I have hit everything except for a few tricks now on my flipside and even some that I haven't hit strong.
James, I can't wait to get home again too. I'm going to buy a car and a laptop when I get back so I can cruise around and watch videos with you guys. I'm thinking about having a phat party when I get back to Eugene, just us kickers since we haven't done that before.
I hear that we are suppose to get back on ships in October but that could always change, if it's true, HELL YEAH. Because that meens we'll hit some liberty ports in Australia and I heard that is the shit. Depending how long we're their maybe I can get ahold of the Ausy's and see if we can kick, that would be something to remember.
Will write again lata.

You seem to be doing pretty good, depsite the conditions. I like how you improvised a bag and shoes. That's some serious dedication.
you used a lot of terms I wasn't familiar when you were on the ship. Flight deck was easy enough, but the others I'm not so sure about. If you could fill us in as to what the other places were, that would be cool. Peace man.

Thanks for the replies guys, it makes me writing this blog more worthwhile. As far as the ship went, those specific names and locations on the ship were just different sub-levels. Just imagine the further you traveled down on the ship, the more dirt you encountered. It's more like oil/unclean metal however, so it sticks to your bag and shoes which makes it difficult to find a neat enough spot.MegaFighter_X wrote:You seem to be doing pretty good, depsite the conditions.

It's different here though. Iraq is all sand and dirt so I just wash my bag off after each session. My CT's were once white though, you can barely tell anymore, I think I need to wash them but I'd rather spend my free time playing. Oh well, I'm getting the 520's when I get home.
I played again after post yesterday because it was just calling me and I had some fun with it. I was trying unique moves and combos that I thought would be more fun then pushing myself since my legs still hurt from the days previous.
These included:
Spinning Butterflyer > Spinning osis
Toe set ss blender's
Gybas
Zulu clip > spinning clip > zulu clip > spinning clip
Reverse swirl > twirl
spinning ducking paradox mirage
My first seargent came walking up while I was playing, and if you know anything about military rank, I am an E-3 Lance Corporal and he is a E-8, so I pop to parade rest and he goes "What the fuck are you doing monkey?" I started to laugh and he requested to see it again and thought it was pretty cool as long as I didn't fuck myself up. Alot of the marines originally kept giving me shit for footbag but I think they have realized I don't care what they think and most have even came around. Some even come up to play just for a few kicks, which is cool, but no one really has gotten into it.
I got one buddy who loves to watch Vasek play, like more then I do, and he is my favourite player. When we were back in Cali, I had Buda's best on repeat and he would be glued to the TV telling ME to rewind certain combos. He said he wants to see all the crazy shit he is hitting now and I told him when we get back I'll be getting the new vids.
I'll write again tomarrow with highlights from tonights session which I'm going to try some new moves. Orton Out

Hey Melissa, thanks for the reply. I was born in Palmer, Alaska and moved to Wasilla when I was younger. Then I moved to Oregon as I got older. My dad is in Anchorage right now looking for a house; I've only been back to Alaska once but I plan to return for a few years when I'm out of the marine corps. Iraq isn't that bad, I'm quite fortunate compared to alot of people even though I am USMC Infantry.
Back to footbag. I played yesterday but it was really short because the temperature in Najaf hit like 140 and yeah, that's hot. I practiced reverse swirls and swirls and managed to hit both moves both sides, but not in the same run. I hit reverse swirling pickup which is phat and I even had a decent hieght off of a swirling set which is wierd because I wasn't trying anything special. I managed to hit my reverse swirls off of osis's, whirls, and ducking/spinning combos. I remember six months ago Richard Abshire told me to hit Twirl > Blur and I almost have it but it's difficult to pull through.
My shin splints came back and they are really wierd. Like as the base of my gastrucnemius muscel which is your calf, and it hurts when pressure is applied. I've had this happen before and I've tried icing, but staying off of it seems to be the only real way to make it go away. I wish I had the endurance and body to handle this sport like Vasek but with all the running/hiking and bullshit I have to put up with I guess I have my hands full.
I have 12 hours of post tomarrow and then I leave to another base to do more god damn guard. They have computers there but I don't know if I will write much, if I have the right post times I will because they don't open the lab until late. I'll do my best to keep anyone interested updated, later.

I'll do that Melissa.
I am now at a different camp doing even more guard duty but still strive to find footbag time inbetween, much to the critisisms of other marines. We have like three translators here and they have mixed views about footbag, the ones who like soccer love it, but one of them things I'm killing myself slowly playing. Or something like that. He likes to come up and try to kick it a few times but he isn't much of a fan.
Anyway, I have had like two sessions since last time I wrote and they were both pure enjoyment. I got to hit a few new combos and also worked flipside foundation. I found that my flip osis was alot poorer then my strong so I tried to catch it up, its about 75%. I hit alot of swirl combos and spinning/ducking shred. I'm having alot of fun just playing right now because I can't do it enough. Tomarrow I plan to hit ripstein off of reverse swirl, I came really close the other day but it's eluding my foot by not sealing. Other combos I have hit include:
Reverse swirl > whirl > reverse swirl > reverse whirl
Osis > ripwalk > ripwalk > osis > ripwalk > ripwalk
Reverse swirl > spinning clip > gyro clip > repeat
Reverse swirling pickup both sides
10x cross body rakes same side
12x cross body rakes switching sides
Reverse swirl > Crispy mobius
I'll post more when I have time but I have to go post for now, later.

What is up O_O!! I just found out that we will be getting home in December in time for Christmas and New Years. Oh my god I am happy, because the chances of this happening a couple months ago were small, especially with all the fighting here. This meens I need to play harder or I will suck when I get back so I will be drilling later.
Recently I hit:
Flipside Whirr (I yelled real loud and had my seargent look at me funny)
Gyro Cross Body rake bsos
Spinning paradox mirage and gyro mirage bsos
Backside Blur bs
Dlo > ss dlo
I tried eggbeaters but holy shit, I hate them. I will never do eggbeaters again, I think I hit my thighs/knees like every time and I said screw it, so I just worked dlo's and I'll stick to those. (That RHYMED)
I came back from not playing in a week and holy shit I sucked but I was just having fun so I kept it up but the other day I hit all of the above moves concentrating on cleanliness and form. I can't seem to step out of my drifters yet, I don't understand why, they are just clippers but it is impossible for me right now to step out of one. I also tried vortex but I keep doing something wrong, I know my setting height and spin is quick enough but my dex is just not following through. I can do spinning clippers without planting so this move shouldn't be this hard
.
My flipside pixie is also annoyingly poor. Some days it will set correctly, and other days it won't. It has gotten better for sure in the last six months but it still isn't up to a par in which I can confidently throw it in a run. It's very aggravating knowing that I can pixie anything strong side but I'm lucky to hit magellan flip...
Will write again when I have money for the computers.

YO! Does that mean you are coming back to Eugene for Christmas!?!? Christmas Jam baby! Nate has exploded during my injury... He is crazy now and I am struggling to catch up. I am starting to get awesome too, but it will take a little while to hit all of the fives that nates hits consistently. I am focusing on getting the last few 4s to make my game complete and then I will start popping out new 5s with more regularity.
Man I hope you are coming back soon.... I would feel a whole lot better about this marines thing if you were home where it's safe, or at least at some military base on US soil where there is little danger.
Shred Hard Aaron! You know we are!

Yeah James, I should be back for the holidays, which is a god send and the best news I have heard for a while. We could be extended here but I understand that it is unlikely, but even so, the time frame is ticking down and I will be back home in a few months.
I have been playing little footbag lately, I have had barely any time for it, and my excersize is all being exerted in the gym. I will try to play tomarrow but that will be lucky if it happens, I have to get up early for work and I may not be let off until late late.
Anyway, recently:
Whirling same whirl BS
Pheonix > Blurry Whirl first try O_o
Pheonix > Blurrage
Whirl War 1
Blurry Drifter > Paradox Torque (Off the foot O_<)
Ducking P. Mirage > Ducking Mirage > Ducking Butterfly > Repeat
Fairy ss whirl BS
My string length is hugely fluxuating on the day. It's very strange and it has always been a goal of mine to get a long enough string to really expand my skills but it seems like I am STILL focused on osis, butterfly, and p mirage in my runs. I hate it but I guess to finally rid myself of them I will need alot more practice, oh well. I seem to be able to throw my reverse swirls in regularly, which is nice, I think I got three consecutively a few days ago.
I manage to hit pixie ss barrage fairly frequently when someone wants to see how quick I can go "around the bag", heh. It's cool but it would be better if I could hit it flipside. My flipside pixie is about 50% of my strong right now, hopefully it will grow.
Well, I'll write again in due time, peace out from Najaf

My string length is hugely fluxuating on the day. It's very strange and it has always been a goal of mine to get a long enough string to really expand my skills but it seems like I am STILL focused on osis, butterfly, and p mirage in my runs. I hate it but I guess to finally rid myself of them I will need alot more practice, oh well. I seem to be able to throw my reverse swirls in regularly, which is nice, I think I got three consecutively a few days ago.
I manage to hit pixie ss barrage fairly frequently when someone wants to see how quick I can go "around the bag", heh. It's cool but it would be better if I could hit it flipside. My flipside pixie is about 50% of my strong right now, hopefully it will grow.
Well, I'll write again in due time, peace out from Najaf
