Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Session today. Was gooood. Or okay I guess. Stomach was a bit upset during most of it. Did some stuff that Matt suggested, including: Inside Stall x 50 Toe Stall x 100 (did more than these total but just to start off as a warmup) Inside> Op Toe > Legover repeat (BS 5 times) Inside> Wrap (BS 5 times)...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Yea I agree, keeping a level head is important for a bunch of stuff. He's definitely right in that regard! Thanks for all the tips, I'll be sure to try that out next session. And yea Matt's a pretty knowledgeable guy haha, he helps out a bunch. I actually worked on some orbit/ ATW stuff with my sess...

Re: Double AA's Footblog - 204 toe stalls!
Hey dude, nice job on the new toe stall record! 204, damn, I need to step my game up. Love the laces on your lavers too, that's a cool idea. Probably would have done something like that if I didn't color mine purple/ black with purple laces. That video helped me out a bunch too, so thanks for that. ...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Had a session with Matt on Thursday. I didn't really hit anything of importance, just the regular drills and kicks/ stalls. We played for a good two hours, I had a lot of fun. I think I'm getting better at keeping more level-headed and calm when something is frustrating, so that's good. And I had so...

QUICK session yesterday, got the following: -139 varied kicks (up from 118, probably a fluke but I just got into this groove after a while and every kick just made sense) -66 toe stalls alternating -28 inside stalls (alternating, up from 23 I think) -20 legovers (single, both sides) Was fun. Will ho...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Thanks for the help Cassy/ Erik! That helped a bunch with my leg-overs this session. Yea, it's definitely one of the hardest sports I've ever done. Had a short-ish session today for around an hour. It was getting dark so I didn't get to do as much as I wanted, but I got this: -52 varied kicks (insid...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Yea, that's true. Will definitely work on that. Had another session with Matt, was pretty shitty for me anyways. Bad weather, wet and rainy. At least it wasn't cold. Got pretty mad at stuff I couldn't land a lot although I tried to keep a level head. Sloppy forms on some stuff, decent on others. We ...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
So I guess my priorities are as follows then: 1. Learn foundations/ basics 2. Learn foundations/ basics and 3. Learn foundations/ basics. Haha thanks guys, will do. And I hope so Nick, I think good form makes for a nice clean style -- which I would very much enjoy having. Let's see, had a session wi...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Hey Nick, haha yea I remember that... Footjawn/Kicksphere? Lol. Thanks for all the compliments and advice. I'm not too sure on that Matt point though, I wanna get into the weird/ unusual stuff too once I get the basics down! Will definitely keep keep at it with the drills, they seem to be helping. L...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
So it ended up being a pretty short session. I've been getting progressively sicker over the past few days (I blame Matt Kemmer) and just wasn't feeling it. Here's what I did hit: 73 inside kicks 15 alternating toe kicks (1 rotation each) 50 right outside kicks 30 left outside kicks 52 and 63 toe st...

Oh yea I think I've seen this before, I'll be sure to watch it again though. Oh nice, I'll check it out. --- Went to a concer...

Re: Adventures of a Newb: Dan's Footblog
Yea Cassy this is definitely the coolest sport I've ever played, I don't have any plans of quitting anytime soon. Maybe, I think I played something like 4 or 5 hours on Friday, a little less than that on Saturday, probably the longest time I've spent freestyling over a 2 day period, it was great. Ha...

Just going to sum up my last few sessions, the PA net championships, and future goals for the next 2-3 months. ---- PA net event: This was really cool. I had never seen any kind of net footbag before, so it was interesting to see a blend of free-stylers and net players. I was somewhat surprised to f...

What kind of stretches do you guys do?
Been getting into the habit of stretching before and after each session. So far I do: -Butterflies (not the footbag move) -Left leg tucked in, extend right hand to reach right foot (same thing for opposite side) -Both legs extended, touch toes with both hands -Right leg out with left leg pulled over...

Re: Nick Polini: Operation: DSNY (Don't Suck Next Year)
Hey Nick --Dan here-- this is my first modified post so sorry if I'm doing something wrong or whatever but I'm gonna steal your thread for a bit, hope you don't mind. Figure I'd give my own perspective on the past couple of days as a newcomer to the sport. Matt first asked me if I would be intereste...
