Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll
Last week, the gym was a madhouse, and I had neglected to bring my camera. This week I did, and of course nothing crazy went on last night. Of course.
Still, I took some videos of me playing some more Add A Trick, and I had my buddy Sash do that tramp trick with me again so I could capture that. So here we go…
Okay, this is an add a trick game that was pretty rough. One of my friends had just started throwing his front 1 and 3/4 and double porpoise so we were doing a lot of games with those tricks in them. Allow me to commentate. In this clip, I started with a front flip with an extra 3/4 rotation to my back. Next I did a double porpoise, which is two rotations off my back and landing on my back again. Then I did a single porpoise. Now – after that I was supposed to do another double porpoise… but something went wrong I rotate so fast on my double that I over-rotated my single. So when I sat up for my next double, I had no rotation. But I just pulled reeeeelly hard and managed to make it to my back. Yes, it looks like I landed on my head, but I did in fact clear it (just barely). That’s my buddy Sasha leaping into the air in terror. I do this all the time

So another round went by and two tricks were added by my friends: a cradle (from back, sit up and turn to back) and another double porpoise. Yea that last one was Sash. He’s evil. So this was my best attempt:

As you can see I made the double porpoise better this time and kicked to the cradle, but when I tried to double out of that it sent me off the tramp. Doh!! My other two tries didn’t pan out either.
Moving on. I tried doing the full-twisting front flip 1 and 3/4 that I did last week but didn’t commit again and landed on my side all mangled. Just wasn’t enough people around forcing me to throw big. So I tossed a few fliffuses instead, which are double front flips with a half twist:

And finally the highlight of the evening, that 180 spin thing I told you about last week. Now, I dunno where the hell Sash thought he was going, but he went up, when you’re supposed to be going horizontal. I had to grab him with like both arms to bring him back down on the tramp Now you’ll see why you have to really trust the person you’re doing it with – if we didn’t catch arms he would gone into a pillar and I would have face planted on the floor. But we didn’t and it looked awesome so enjoy

Okay that’s all for me right now. I get my motorcycle back tomorrow and I’m going to be doing Fright Fest at the park starting this weekend, so if you’re in Jersey (or the tri-state area even) come on out for the biggest halloween party ever!
