Have been going to physical therapy for my shin splints and it seems to be helping. I also bought some orthodics/arch supports which is also supposed to help with overall legpain.

Since my legs seem to be getting stronger i have been practicing more the last couple of weeks. I have been working on some combos/moves that i always thought would bring my game to the next level like:

-blurry whirl/para whirl>spinning anything
-rubberman
-atomsmasher>atomsmasher
-any atomic combos because they have always been missing from my game.
-weakside butterfly swirls/far swirls
-my favorite strings like:
-blur>smear>dimwalk(repeat)
-shmoe>parkwalk>ripwalk(repeat)
-blur>legbeater>rip (repeat)

-I have also been trying to work on furious b/c that would be an awesome set that would stand out from alot of players. I am not too close but i try it everytime i kick and i know i will figure it out soon.

- I hit paradon swirl last night after 2 tries...earlier that night i tried working on my weakside far sym swirls which helped alot when linking in the swirl after the paradon.

Things i hope or will be hitting soon

- p torque>p torque
-janiwalker and barroques
-atomic drifters and atomic whirls
-blurry whirl>blurry whirl>ps whirl>ps whirl
-paradox blenders and more paradox whirls

so i'm in the fitting room today tryin on some shorts and for some reason i try blur >atomic torque w/o a bag. Its totally silent in the room and i land the atomic torque perrrfectly (of course) and i smash my hand on the door handle. It was really really loud ...like unusually loud for a small room where people normally dont make any noise..and there was someone right next to me. hah!! but i landed it

After watching your vid, I just wanted to say:


Thank G-d you didn't become too serious with that "I'm gettin all serious with my Tennis career" thingy. Your foootbag game is probably better than your tennis game . . . already!

yeh man u r a wicked shredder Ryan. ur style is sooo awesome and u hit big shit with apparent ease. i felt ur pain with the rubberman drill even tho i am no where near hitting it... just seeing u get to the last move was like AARRRGGHH!!! u will hit that very soon (unless u have and i missed it), all the components look perfect
