FreeStyle With Progress - Part 3

ACCEPT NO LIMITS

A great windskate session

On Sunday 18 November there wasn't enough wind to surf in a cold weather of 4 degrees. So i went for a nice dirt session with Gino Joskowski. Gino spotted a nice industry parking on the Rijksweg in Willebroek (or Puurs, we don't know exactly) so went to check it out. Although the wind was slightly to much West it was still a magical spot !! But not only for the conditions and the lovely warming sun, but because i've done my first spock, eslider and switch stance air-jibe !!
Gino on the other hand perfected his flaka's and his special kind of chacho !!

New even better, because you won't believe me otherwise :), it's all on photo or on movie. I've posted some photo's below so you can start enjoying. The movie still needs some editing, but i will post it asap!

When i got home i saw a peacock on the roof of our neighbors and even for Belgium, that's a strange place for staying..


Ow yes, almost forgot to mention, about 2 weeks ago i had a little windskate session with Tommeke Peeters. Not many photo's but it was a lot of fun!



And know for the actual day i talked about.






Al the photo's are viewable right here :)

Windskate.fr

A French windskate movie i found recently (although it's 6 months old). I thought i would share it with you guys, cause it's a really nice one !! (nice intro to)

ACCEPT NO LIMITS

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

I know it isn't very professional but hey, i'm so happy i really don't care... why ???

My airjibe (with dirtsurfing) is finally working!!!

YEEESS !!!!!!!!

Although i haven't proof for the moment, i'm working on it :)

Next step is now spock and grubby. And hopefully next weekend doing it on my surfboard! (But that will probably be a whole other story)

Windskate progress :: Part 2

With no wind @ all, i have no other option then practicing my dirtskills. The airjibe is almost working but still doing something wrong. If you see it, don't hesitate to tell me !!!
I'm working also on a new move i've seen on the riders movie from Buhala. Don't know how its called, but it looks great. The only thing i can do so far is crash my ass of :-)

But for this session i had a little helper for getting my speed up. See the video for you're self and any comments are appreciated.

Music: Gold Lion - Yeah, Yeah, Yeah



Stay tuned for the next one.

ACCEPT NO LIMITS

Today's fun session

Because there wasn't any wind, we (as in me and my brother Seppe) went today out on a fun training session on our dirtboard. After an hour of real practice (for me at least) on my one-handed flaka and airjibe we were up for some real fun and slightly crazy experiment. But i'm gonna tell you about that later on, when the edditing of the movie is done. All i can tell for know is that you will need a good bike for this kind of fun :)

In the end it was a fun and various session. It delivered some nice photo's too.


I don't know if you see it, but it is a no-handed flaka. I'm pretty proud of it!


After a while my brother decided to try some jumps.


May the surfspirit be with you.

My first experience with dirtsurfing

The blog is about progress and freestyle, so it's about time that i'm gonna to post something about my current state of technique. This little video (57 seconds) show very quickly the moves i've mastered so far (meaning after 5 hours of exercise) on my new Pro Freestyle Buhala board.


As you can see on the video, the editing needs also some improvement but hey, it's work of progress :)

Music : Toshiro Masuda - The Raising Fighting Spirit

You are free to post comments on my style and mistakes. The more feedback i get, the faster my progress will become (hopefully :))

I'm also thinking about making a site about dirtsurfing. With lot's of pictures and video's but perhaps more important some kind of tutorial for every move you can make (or at least every move i know or gonna know) on a windskate. I'm not sure yet if i'm gonna make a separate site dedicated to dirtsurfing alone or that i'm gonna put everything in here. Again let me know what you think what's best and if it's worth the effort.

May the surfspirit be with you.
