Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Haha, thanks! I was pretty happy when I hit it, had a silly grin on my face for the next few strings afterwards. Looking back, the last 5 or so highlights from that session were all 4s and 5s, which is probably the first time that has happened. For some reason, I've always imagined that one day I'd ...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Had a session Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. It's been a bad week for my legs, and the first two sessions reflected that. As I've said, I've been through this before, so it's not a horrible concern, but I am taking the right steps to remedy the situation. Step one: take pain meds. Step 2: keep playing....

Re: Feminine Freestyle ---

Looking forward to reading some words here. You are the write up queen (in my eyes). Best of luck with worlds, and everything in between. I don't suppose we'll see you at Arts Fest this year? (July 11-12th)

Re: I guess I can hit some things, so challenge me - Ivan

Well, I had a pretty crappy session today but I managed Toe Whirl > Blur RPT. Blizzard shouldn't be too far away. Good challenge.

Re: Video Blog ~MetZelRio~

Nice progress!

I challenge you to take that clipper > far legover drill and replace the clipper with an SS butterfly. I think you'll be good at that in no time. I enjoyed your drifter video, gave me some ideas for drills I want to hit. Think you can hit legbeater > drifter bs?

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Top posts deserve things, even if they aren't paintings. I'm not usually a fan of urban timelapses, and definitely prefer nature, but this one really appeals to me. Definitely recommend a watch: https://vimeo.com/65888557 Had a fun time kicking with Nick, Ryan, Matt, Nathan and Zach today. Played in...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Thanks for the drill, Vojta. Definitely something to aim for. Whirls are relatively new, I've only started feeling comfortable with them in the past month. Paradons have been in my game for about a year. I've also been going for blurriest and fusion as "reward tricks" at the end of sessions (where I...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Was in the office today, which is unusual considering Wednesdays are when I work from home. We got two new clients at work this week, one small company and a huge player in the life insurance business. Looks like we'll be reworking the infrastructure of our main product to be able to handle millions...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

That's pretty true. I had 3 pretty crappy sessions in a row, today I finally had a nice one. Since the start of the summer, I've been increasing my session length to kick longer and build up stamina, and at this point my body is pretty unhappy with that. Time to scale back a bit and just kick more o...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Had a pretty shitty session today, but I'm okay with that, it was a long string of really fun sessions before this. Legs didn't feel great, groin felt like it was slightly pulled (doing what, I don't know). I practiced spins, ducks, and osis. Nothing notable, but I figure I'd still post. Serves as a...

Re: TMNT Have Nothing On This Shredder

Blowin' up. Those highlights are amazing. All of them. A bag for me? Oh man, I don't think I deserve it yet... looks like I've gotta film more of my stuff. I'm used to playing next to playgrounds or basketball courts so you won't be able to tell the difference between me hitting fusion or two consec...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

This response brought to you by Septa rail, car 422, which apparently has a busted suspension coil resulting in horrible jerks and noises whenever the train accelerates (negative and positive acceleration, mind you). Evan, the question you posed was a very straightforward one, and seemingly a simple...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Okay, that last highlight might have been a bit inaccurate... I could hardly walk Sunday morning, and nearly fell off my bike when I went for a ride that afternoon. It's been over 15 years since I've fallen off my bike that clumsily... So July 1st is two weeks away, and I've come to the realization ...

Oh Sinsock... I mean Inspock... er, Spinstock (yeah, that's the one) It was really sweet to check out a gathering of highly talented individuals doing freestyle stuff that didn't involve juggling or hacky sack. The event had many parallels to a footbag tournament, so it was pretty easy to fit in and...

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Ken, I'm really getting spoiled by the food. It's everywhere. Food carts, Market St, so much variety at decent prices. Riding the train to/from work isn't so bad either as it gives me 30 minutes of solid reading time each way. If anyone has any good books to read, throw some suggestions to me. I'm a...

Re: Asheville's Got Footbag!

I almost quit today because yeah, I can hit stuff, but not big stuff. Yeah, I can do some links occasionally, but drills? Yeah, no. I can do a string of tiltless, but barely in control. I don't know. I feel embarrassed to play footbag sometimes. Not because it's footbag, but because I should be bet...

Re: The Lord of the Strings: A Footblog of Nathan

Propsicles on the 5>5 and being good at footbag. (propsicles are props that are so cool they're frozen - quite common in the winter, but refreshing and highly sought after during the summer)

Now that you're driving (yes?) we need to find a spot in the middle to play together.

Re: Ivan I's Footblog

Had a pretty lethargic session after work today. My legs felt fine, but I just couldn't bring myself to focus on anything. I would just lose track of the bag midstring... I guess I'm really tired. Still, I hit a milestone in my game, and was really excited. I even jumped around a bit after I hit it!...
