Re: breathing

You guys don't know wtf you are talking about. His breathing was very well executed. (that's kind of supposed to be funny, but true at the same time). When you're going that fast and hard for that long, there is virtually no room to breathe, so when he breathed heavy on the spins, it was a natural reaction and his first opportunity get oxygen back in the blood.

David, you have amazing timing, speed and execution. You remind me a bit of Ryan Mulroney actually.

It wasnt a diss david, it was an oppertunity to improve. Taught to me by the executioner himself who went to the top of a mountain to train his breathing. It is an oppertunity, not a diss.

Amazing.
I was just wondering how much of it was planned. Did you have the first 8 or so thought out before hand and then did the rest on memory or was the whole thing on memory of what you had already done? It seems like it would be hard to memorize a 20/5 combo before you execute especially when you did it all in the same shoot. (Unless of course you're Jon Schneider who can tell you every move he hit at '98 Southern Regionals :D )

I dunno if this has been mentioned, but I found it crazy that out of the 20 unique contacts, only 6 where pdx whirl 8O

It's also amazing that in his 18 almost unique he hit pdx torque out of the void at the end and he didn't do that in his 20, he also left out pdx blenders in his 20 which are fairly easy (as are pdx torques wuick were left out) - seems like potential for more than 20 fearless there, I guess it's just a fitness thing ;)

yeah it really looked like 20 was the target. 20 unique 5s > handcatch.
I'd venture that it's more than just a fitness thing :)

I have specific fearless segments that I plan, but this was just combinding a few of those. I originally planned to put the ripped warriors torwards the middle, but opted to start with them and some janiwalkers.

There was supposed to be a pdx. torque>pdx. blender out of the void, but as you can see I was off balance.

There is defiantley room for improvement. I did not hit flip fog/flip phoenix/flip pixie paradon/tomahawks/scorp etc. I think I could raise my record a lot higher.

Thanks for the comments.

man david...


that shit is just insane bro. i really admire the amount of practice and dedication that it must have taken to acheive the level of shred that you so gracefully execute. furthermore, the fact that i just watched you hit that many fearless is still sinking in, so ill check back a little later to make sure im not still sleeping or something.


peace man, and good shred

Thanks for bumping this one, Jay! I should really rummage through old video threads here for more gems like this.

Dammit, when I saw who made the topic I was hoping this was new footage.

None the less still amazing.It's ridiculous how good Clavens was nearly 3 years ago. The arcade setting ruled, great video.

Anyone know where Dave's "new record of 25" is?

Or was it 25? I just remember that it's in a vid with Bevier, and one of them starts counting out towards the end of the string...and it's awesome.
