andrew t. grant has got a couple beers up in him and really shouldn't be posting at all.

HooD · Post by **HooD** » 26 Jan 2005 05:08

Andrew t. grant, on the journey for the 'G' spot, one must be mentally and physically ready to put full effort...hahahaaha, man, I JUST woke up, and laughed really loud at that. Sorry for cluttering your blogger up David, but come on, that shit is hilarious. *yawn* off to school T___T

lol whatever, once i get to page 5 the gspot will be forgotten. hopefully.

lol. today i did some inside stalls in pants. not so bad feeling. at school i stretch my ankle out by pressing it against the ground at really slight angles, just to like, i guess make the muscle more un-tense. i cant wait till i can play again. i havent played in i think exactly 2 weeks.

BACK IN ACTION!

i played for 30 minutes today. it was so much fun!!!! ah! i started off with tons of inside stalls and kicks, and then gradually found myself again. i actually hit some infinities!!! i hit smear both sides, spinning clip both sides, ducking clip both sides, and worked on toe stalls and my basic 2's. once i felt my ankle become a little tired from all the cranking, i stopped. im so stoked though! footbag is so awesome to come back to, and its really like, so cool to just see the bag float around again.

i played basketball today in gym, like just shooting cuz i didnt want to run, and i realized that like, im so bad at traditional sports. like, i just suck. i really didnt like it at all. basketball and all those traditional sports seem so run of the mill and the same. everyone looks the same when they play them, and you cant make the game your own. no one has STYLE in basketball. i dont think so anyway. in footbag, you can do everything your own way, its so sweet. being unique and having style is so key i think. its just awesome to like, let your body go and play how you want, and just let the bag float. STYLE IS LIFE.

i cant wait to start skooling again! im going to try to play 20 minuteish everyday, and see if it hurts. so stoked though man. yum.

Great to see you back up and shredding

that was a fast recorvery it seems like. Just dont go to hard on it to soon it might reuslt to more injury

Sucks you got injured dave. I'm glad to hear you are back already... ankle injuries can sometimes not be extremely serious, although it takes a while to get your full crank back and you want to be careful that it is strong enough not to roll on you again. At least it wasn't your knee or back or something that almost never goes away. Keep having fun!

Two words: And One
OK, 2 more words: Hot Sauce

PS-glad you`re back playing footbag. But still, regarding your basketball remarks:

david · Post by **david** » 27 Jan 2005 16:57

good point ken. i take my comment back for those guys, but not for 90% of every other basketball player.

david · Post by **david** » 02 Feb 2005 18:49

feb whatever today is, 2005

i played for like... an hour and a half? this is my... 4th session back from being injured. some highlights:

-flip blurrier midstring for like, some weird reason
-smoke, blurry drifter, blurry whirl>blurriest, and spinning whirl. <-- all in the same string.
-atom>smear>atom>smoke>string (i really like that combo, idk why)
- reactor both sides, havent hit that since the injury
- blurry drift>blurry drift on foot (i dont count footed shit, but this was kinda big, and so close)
- some nice spins and duckys
- gyro barrage (1st time)
- drifter>pdx. drifter>drifter>pdx. drifter>pdx. dlo both sides
- flip bubba beater (why had i not hit this before?)

and... thats it. left crank still a little off, so all my torques rolled off. whatever.

Badass combo! Hit that repeat and get it on video! (the link would have to be a toe drifter of course)
