USA wins gold Division 3 world champions!


Hey everyone,

We kicked some ass. Here is the breakdown.

We beat up on the french in the quarterfinals in two games.

Then we played Germany B and gave them a beating.

Then we spanked Germany A in two.

Our A team lost its first match in Division 1. They had a good time though. I started all the matches and never need to return as Victor and John had little trouble finishing them off.

Thanks for following my crazy adventures!

Tomorrow Brazil goes down! I will think of Carine the 49er fan as I crush them out! J/K love her!

Peace

we are ready to go

yo people,

Sorry for the delay. The hotel is totally nice, we get money for food and rides to practice where we have our own court, balls and everything. We even have our own liason, which we have named our coach. It is quite an adventure. Bangkok is probably the craziest/most polluted place I have ever been to, even worse then detroit. But Takraw is all over the place. Good news is because the serve is now at the back line and you must alternate I am playing well. I was on the A team as the sub but Our 5 guy is slightly hurt so I am starting on the B, which is sweet.

After the seating meeting our A team which is Tan and Kabee will get moved from C division to A, which means they will have to play the best in the world. We had to negotiate this because both team where in C. I will be starting on the B team with John Lee. We are clicking well we have beat our own A team once already. The rules are in my favor and it gives me a distinct advantage. Lucky cause I need it.

We play tomorrow against Brazil B. Brazil won division C last year so we will be ready for them. To all my footbag teamates I say what up. And friends I will keep you posted after we face Brazil!

Arrived in Bangkok

Arrived in Bangkok did 24 hours on the plane! I slept almost 14 hours which was sweet. We have a nice hotel and food is provided.

Good news on the rules it turns out they are almost exact to footbag, except you can serve either player. But you must alternate passes which is a good advantage for me.

We get to train tomorrow in the stadium hopefully I will have photos up by then.

Peace out

Practice in Oaktown one last time

Yo woke up feeling Tequila in my stomach, Nothing like Tommys on a week night. Nice practice yesterday woke up sore a little not too bad. Got my coffee in me and I am ready to hit the spot today to play with the bigger ball.

Allright on my way to kick it at the getospot one last time before I take on most of Asia.
Feeling good hamstring a little sore, just no mouse traps and I should be cool, working on the sunback and Toe Flip, only weapons I will use today. Plus I will play the right side since that will most likely be my spot.

Late
