Apologies for the inconsistent framing. Had to hit most of these multiple times due to that, and for some combos I wasn't able to rehit them as well on camera. When I'm in Arizona, I'll try and rehit the gyro toe one so its less of a rake as well. Anyway, here's my entries:

Playtime is over - the first third of the month is behind us, and now the LOTD steps up in difficulty.

Who's still up for the challenge?

Hi,

Well, this is really fun to try indeed. This is my contribution:

I will re-hit far rev whirl > step illusion again on my next session... Hopefully tomorrow I get the chance to play again.

:D

Todays link (Badger > Frontside Blur) is my personal favourite of all the twelve links I did for the LOTD. For everyone who posts a video of this link, I will grant deeper dexes for the rest of the year. That's right - I can do that.

Barfly swirl to triage is my favorite so far. I can't believe how deep Anz gets it.

Question to Anz and Jay: did both of you hit all 24 combos?

Well, I think this is my last post in this challenge, now things got from very difficult to hardcore for me :(

It would be nice to see if someone out there can hit them all.

Hi Ken: I think now swifter should look better :)

Very nice David!

Ken - I was thinking of trying the links that Jay did, at least the harder ones. Might give it a go in front of the camera at some point.

Ken: No, neither of us have tried the other's combos yet. That being said, we agreed that only the "red" links would cause problems for us. I'm confident with a bit of piss and vinegar, we can both get each other's though.

Note: Neither of us tried our hardest links for the final section. We still wanted an obtainable challenge for others to shoot for. I did my last links in one session, and Anssi did the whole shoot in one go. Anssi even hit some of his last links first try, with demo bags.

That whirlwind > symposium flurry looks so slow and controlled. Honestly, I can't believe how easy Anz made that look. These are so great... and so beyond my skill level.
