Keeping the feet to the bagstone!
Session Accomplished! I really wish I could post video from my secret hideout. There's no good video from tonight's session, but still... another hour of footbag has been logged for a total of 3:40 so far. My goal is 50 hours this year.
I hit pairs of moves (at least one on each side): torques, drifters, blenders, paradox whirls. Each pair was in the same rally, but no two pairs were in the same rally. And that's the flavor of tonight's session: it was the high spot of this week's overall attitude, yet, rather lame. I was screwing around with some really crazy arm and body movements, but I never really found the 'groove'. I hit some good moves, but couldn't really keep the bag off the ground. You get the picture (or not).
Thanks for tuning in, and I hope to blog some grooving bag stats next week!
Cool! These days we have a name for that... BSOS which stands for "Both Sides One String" Keep shreddin!

Yes, I'm totally into exploring the 'geometry' of footbag moves. Matched pairs: infinities; mirrored pairs: butteryfly - drifter; and iterations: Xb stall, same-side butterfly, same-side dada. Such geometry can be applied to strings, pairs, and even within same moves. Which leads me to ask: what is the street name for a paradox set with one leg to a drifter on the other? Geometrically, it's a mirrored paradox. I've touched a few of those, but never controlled one.
