Hey Tony, sorry to hear about the tonsilitis...but I'm happy to hear that you met your summer goals. Makes me want to be more systematic and set goals for myself as well. I know it sucks to not be able to perform at your best when your body isn't cooperating, but give it time to rest and I'm sure yo...

Been a while since I posted here... I was getting better at my ripwalks, being able to use them in more combos than before. some things I hit in the last month: - paradon > ripwalk - ripwalk b2b (multiple times in a session...aiming for 3 b2b) But then...almost 2 weeks ago (8/27), I strained my quad...

had my usual 2hr+ session yesterday with Damon and Richard. My ankle was still a bit more sensitive than usual, but it didn't stop me from doing anything. the session was mostly for runs/combos...didn't hit any new tricks or any of my previous fearless, but I still felt accomplished. - 15 tiltless (...

had a lunch session and night session yesterday...mostly drilling my basics trying to get better form and improving my stamina. - 50 clippers each side - 30 clippers b2b (3-step) - 100 legovers b2b (50 each leg) then did some runs and hit a new trick - atom smasher I should have stopped there, but I...

thanks richard, I appreciate your help (and bags). couldn't have gotten this far without them.

had another good session today despite lacking energy. highlights:

- pdx whirl
- matador (new)
- dino (new) bs
- whirling swirls

Great job Tony...I haven't checked your blog in a while (too busy at work lately) and was surprised to see how much you've improved. I just my first triple dex (blurriest) last saturday, so I know how exciting that must be. btw, if you can hit blurry whirl and dimmiest (neither of which I have hit),...

Haven't posted anything on this blog for almost a month. Been super busy at work, so putting a couple sessions a week was already tough. And I haven't really hit anything worth posting until today. Today was a good day. I hit two new tricks, and a few good combos. whirl > ripwalk dimwalk > blur (I t...

Great job on hitting that many clippers. I don't think I can do that many...should give it a try. Shred at Lunch: :arrow: :!: 62 alternating clippers:!: Almost bitter sweet, since I dropped 2 short of a challenge, but this always seems to happen. I get close, get excited that I'm gonna make it and t...

I didn't feel like I did enough during yesterday's lunch session, so I did another session at night. More drilling to get basics really down. 50 Osis on each side. Trying to freeze them instead of scooping them up like I used to. I wanted to do 100 each, but around 40, my shins started hurting bad. ...

8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O That is so dumb. Are you crazy? Hmm...I don't think so :roll: ? I should have mentioned that before I tried switching foot, I can already drive the following ways very comfortably (and with zero accidents): - standard driving (two hands on wheel, right foot) - left-hand d...

Earlier last week, I had a night session with Abshire, and something he said intrigued me...after I mentioned that my right calf, shin hamstrings were bothering me, he said something like "you better watch out for your right leg...that's your driving leg...you don't want to be learning to drive wit...

I'm no rock climbing expert, but I tried it once and I had the same sore feeling on my arms. A couple years later, I was watching Discovery Channel and got a tip from Bear Grills (from Man vs Wild) Instead of reaching higher with your arms to climb further each time, keep your hands lower, and use y...

Hey Tony, I've been following your blog for a while...it's a great read and I love seeing your progress. I noticed you mentioned you're trying to get into web design and thinking of taking courses for that. I'm not sure what your skill level is right now, or what you are trying to learn, but I work ...

I'm down in San Diego...I know it's a far drive, but definitely hit me up ahead of time if you feel like coming down. We have a small group that usually shred every saturday in Carlsbad or Oceanside, but we might be able to get more people to come out for a bigger shred session.

i'm not really a pro, but here are my thoughts...hopefully it may be of some use: Uncut - less work - forces you to have better form/timing [youtube]Cutting inner layer[/youtube] - harder to mod - looks cleaner - better than uncut for stalls Cutting outer layer - easier to mod - doesn't look as nice...

finally some good stuff worth posting :) May 7, 2011: We had a light session today, as all of us were either injured, or just recovering from injury. Richie didn't kick today due to injury, but came out anyways to watch and give pointers. I'm glad he did, 'cause towards the end of the session (after...

same here, just got back. sorry I didn't get a chance to say goodbyes to everyone. I didn't want to interrupt the circle that was going on when I left. I had a great time, and really appreciate everyone's help. I don't know when I'll be able to download the footage from my camera (since my laptop's ...

sorry...I won't be able to shred for a while. I think I tore both of my thigh muscles

I tried doing a light session last saturday and couldn't do anything other than toe stalls and some clippers. But even those were kinda painful and made things worse. :/

Hey Pasquar...would love to...but terrible timing...

Vegas Jam is on that weekend, so I'll be out of town. In fact, I think a lot of the footbaggers in San Diego will be heading there. I'm not sure if Abshire is going or not. If he isn't, you should definitely schedule a session with him.

Thanks for the clarification, Ken. I'm kinda glad that's not a 5 add. I hope my first one to be a triple dex move :P 3/10/2011: 2 hr solo session today. Lots of 2 adds as warm ups. Clippers, butterflies, osis. Lots of them. I have negleted my osis in the past because my glasses would fly off ocasion...
