Well...judging from the Worlds 06 routines (the latest I saw), Jorden is beatable in routines and NOT Shred30( 8O ).

How did I do in 06? Did you see mine? What should I work on? Did the crowd like my song?

BalinorNZ asked:
What is Monster?
Monster is a simple but strange sort of trick (like a dragon or anchor, but a little moreso). Picture this:
Standing on your left leg, you do an inside stall on your right inside when your right leg is crossed in front of the left leg, and then back behind it, and you're looking at that right inside stall behind your left support leg, down your right side (head looking a little to the right), the same place that you'd ordinarily be looking at your left foot clipper stall behind your right support leg.

This is simply food for thought, but I'd say that trick could almost be said to be, like, a double-cross-body, if thats even possible.
I've only ever seen Kenny Shults to that trick. Years and years ago I wanted to learn it, but practicing just standing in the correct posture made my right knee hurt. I think you need long skinny legs, but maybe you just need a more flexible hip.

gyro inside and monster were meant to be sort of the same ending surface... If Jorden had stopped the delay before he had spun out it would have been a monster, so I suppose it was a gyro inside. The two are executed sort of similarly. If you approach monster in this fashion it's not too hard of a trick (hard to get perfect, but I know I've hit it correctly on each side following this mental approach).

lol at Anssi


You could try these
- yell stuff out to bork him
- moon him
- brown eye him
- tie his shoe laces together when hes not looking
- laugh at him till he cries
- throw a fridge at him during an event
- light a bag of poo and put it infront of him during a routine


make Anssi streak across the routine area

Or you could just practise more.
Hopefully back one day.

You could try putting ex-lax in his gatorade.

Either that or try playing 6 hours a day for two years straight.

I was just thinking today... it's spinning inside, not gyro inside.

Actually, wouldn't it be inspinning inside?

Or perhaps ingyro? I think it would be ingyro inside.
