thanks kyle.
dan, i think there are a few reasons i've never really pushed fearless much, the biggest being that i would rather hit 40 contacts with good variety then 6 boring tricks i'm only pushing because of their point value.
i didn't have confidence in my bigger pdx whirl tricks on flipside for a long time either which are the essence of many great fearless combos. spinning whirl after 3 other 5 add tricks is something I thought i would never be able to do. also many great players (ken, dave, jim, jorden etc.) who push fearless rely heavily on having a good pdx blender, which is still a trick i barely do/don't drill much.
and finally big double down tricks are another common theme in great fearless runs. i've hit pretty much all of the standard ones on both sides but they are still my worst downtime component. my dimmiest's are the as fuck sometimes.
you will see me break 6 or 7 by spring though, promise
went to work both days this weekend to catch up on some filing and work on some personal projects, including the footbag badges. I have the template created (posted in the freestylers group) and am using a different silhouette of a footbagger on each one so once again, send me your still shots that you think would look good and i'll see what i can do. worst comes to worst i just use the same shitty pictures of vasek on google images you've all seen so try to get me a silhouette if you can and want to be a part of this project.
you all should see these 100% complete by mid march. they are at the top of my list. waiting on my taxes so i can fix my macbook and get cracking on all the stuff that's been piling up (boatz & i have a pretty mighty collaboration in the works that you will all see soon as well.) so excited to get back to hustlin' freelance though, cash business is always the sweet spot.
so two or three seshes since last post. good un with the green man as well. i didn't smoke before i played today, wrote a list of tricks i wanted to set a record for, combos i wanted to try and some flipside stuff. trying to get into a serious rhythm with drilling so i can level up nicely before penn state jam.
my session today was pretty horrible but some ok links and runs came from it. heres a crappy highlight real:
-gyro swirl bsos with the flip midrun. probably not new.
-gyro diving clip>shaft
-stepping whirling swirl. this is silly because its still harder for me then blurry whirling swirl which i don't even really consider a highlight anymore. bob had a good observation regarding how i was pivoting which i think helped get the seal. i wanna get good at this one then hit it bsos then step from it
-
stepping same symp swirl bsos with pdx whirling swirl in the seal.
- good run with bw>bw to open and pdx torque>pdx torque in the seal.
really enjoying life and footbag. thankz for readin' kids.
