Even before toe stalls and clippers, I hit butterfly kicks quite often. It was the one super cool hacking move I could do. :/

I couldnt do clippers forever. I did around the world, then around the world and catch on left foot. Then toe stalls, then outside stalls, then inside and clippers. Oh and head, back stalls, ducking.

Legover! For some reason that trick only took a few tries before I started hitting it and I felt like a whole new world had opened up as it was my first "real" trick beyond toe stalls.

atw, clipper, pixie, mirage, legover... within about 2 weeks time of getting a sandbag.

after that, it was a blur of hitting new tricks. butter, clip set every reg trick i could do, rakes...
