Kendama Edit #2!

We've made yet another edit! And we're filming more today ;]

Back, and Better Than Ever

I get the feeling that 9/10ths of my followers don't even use this site anymore, I mean it has been months since I've been on.
BUT I'm back now, and damn; I look back to my old posts and see how lame they were!

I'd like to start off by showing my most recent edit of my kendama crew!

Now, I'm just going to assume that none of you have any idea what the f#@k a kendama even is.

If I could put it in the simplest terms possible, I'd say that it's 'ball-in-a-cup on steroids'.
Kendama consists of a ball with a hole in it, and a stick with 3 cups and a spike on it. The spike fits perfectly in the ball's hole, and the ball fits perfectly in all three of the cups (though 2 of the 3 cups are smaller & harder to land the ball in).
Now. APPRECIATE THIS VIDEO. <3

M'Black - Heartbreak (Bare Noize Remix) Visualization

Quick post. I spend about 4 hours today making this video from scratch (including the 2ish hours it took for my laptop to render.)
It's the first time I've ever tried to create a visualization for a song, and it turned out better than I expected it would although I'm still not as pleased with it as I could be.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy it, I'm really obsessed with this song right now.

Lots of STUFF

Wow. It's been so long since I've posted >_< School started, Senior year is kicking my ass. So much work. 3 AP classes, extra curriculars, etc. You know the deal.

Anyways, I've found some time between all that to make a few videos.

This post is all about original content so I'm pretty pumped. I feel like no one else is frequently on here anymore either, but oh well.

I have a variety of videos to show you all. I guess I'll just do one big post since I'm never on here, instead of splitting them up, so please, enjoy them!

Alright, first up I finally made a video of me doing some real magic! It's a short card production called 'Thunderbird', I hope you like it :D

Ok, next is just a random edit that I made of myself and a few friends blowing raspberries in slow motion. It's not really an interest or anything, but I love the video :D



And now, a video of my bestest friend, Noah, doing a 'Flag'.



Next up is probably the best edit I have ever made, it's a parkour edit, and it's over 3 minutes long; definitely making it the longest edit I have ever done.



You may notice (probably not) that I'm not in that video except once, and I wasn't even really doing anything. That's because the week prior to that, I f*cked up my toe pretty badly. Luckly, we got a video of this :p PLEASE DO NOT WATCH THIS VIDEO IF YOU ARE SQUEAMISH OR SCARED OF BLOOD.



Well there you have it. Aside from school, that's been my life for the past month(ish). I'm definitely going to try to post things on here a lot more often. I hope that I kept you entertained for a least a short amount of time :)

Fitballing

Sorry it's been a while since I posted last, it's been a hectic week! Anyways, on to another interest!

Fitballing! (Honestly there really isn't a true name for this, but it's what most people in the parkour/freerunning community call it.) Basically, you head on over to the beach, dig a big-ass hole in the sand, blow up your fitness ball, and bury it about three-quarters of the way in sand. Then you do flips 'n shit off of it! :D

I haven't personally had a chance to do this yet. But I'm headed to my favorite beach spot this coming weekend and I definitely plan on trying it out! I also definitely plan on filming everything I do, so expect some sort of lame edit in about a week :)

For now, I'm sure you want to see what I'm talking about, so check out this video!

I'll let you know my final thoughts on this activity after I have had a chance to experience it myself c:

Martial Arts Tricking

Let's move on to a new interest, yes?

I see Martial Arts Tricking as sort-of like a sub-genre of Parkour/Free Running. I've been doing it on/off ever since I started Free Running, I'm not great at it in the least bit, it definitely takes a lot of training to get truly good at it, but it's definitely a hell of a lot of fun.

Martial Arts Tricking: Tricking (martial arts tricking) is the informal name of a relatively new underground alternative sport movement, combining martial arts, gymnastics, and other activities to create an aesthetic blend of flips, kicks, and twists.

Now, if you're wondering what in the hell I'm talking about, check out this video c:
This video is the highlights from Team Loopkicks, one of the largest MAT teams that I know of, and it is absolutely insane.

Now if you've been inspired by this to go & try and learn some MAT, just search up YouTube, there are tutorials & how-to's galore.

Final Thoughts: People are always immensely impressed watching me/others do even just the simplest MAT moves. It's fun, a great workout, and will definitely impress the ladies ;)

Dreadlocks, Dreadlocks, Dreadlocks

Dreadlocks! C: After 8 hours of intense labor, 4 movies, and a LOT of time on YouTube, my friend Cheyenne and I finally finished backcombing all of my hair.

I've had my dreadlocks (though I shouldn't even really call them that because they're not dreadlocks YET, they still have to lock up which will take a couple weeks+) for 2 days, and I LOVE THEM.

I look extremely weird, my hair is short, and my dreadlocks are not pretty in the least bit, but I am completely happy with them and I cannot wait to see how they grow and mature.

As for if I'm going to make a blog about dreads, I am not. Simply because I wouldn't have enough to make a good blog but, since it is included in my interests, whenever something worth talking about happens with my hair, or if I have some advice or anything of that sort, I will post it on this blog c:

Enough of the rambling though, I suppose the most important part, probably the only part that people will actually look at in this post; pictures.

Like I said, I look really bad :p but I'm kind of at the point where I really just don't give a f**k what people think of me anymore, so enjoy!
