[DOA]

goddammit, BK. right when i think i have a routine that's gonna fuck you ideways, the poll always show different.

good showing

[balisong kid]

its just the beginning its all game for me or you... im pritty sure one of us will win lol

[Renaissance-Reborn]

BK win; great moves and exicution.

Josh, man, control your self. I'm surprised you didn't shoot blood all over the walls. Still, admire your gusto

joshuawy is your blade taped?

Looks like electrical tape. Your gonna regret that when you take it off and your blade is all sticky and black.

But yeah. this is a good example of why most flippers are strongly against trainers and tape. Notice that he caught the knife about 3 times by the blade in a way that would have fucked his hand up pretty good without the tape... With out getting cut from that some would say he wont learn what not to do.

but i'm glad you got your bali's back and had a chance to be in this even if you had to tape the blade....

I voted for DOA. Though its hard to tell from how far away the camera was..... i think his was a bit more technical, and more importantly, smoother.

[joshuawy]

i know i grabbed the blade, i meant to
i had practiced all this with my other one before it broke and didn't have the blade taped, i started flipping with a linerlock, which you're pretty limited with, so i've learned to catch the blade sideways and not get cut.
and yes the blade was taped, only cuz if my dad finds it untaped, he'd kill me...

[balisong kid]

i would clean up your moves and not catch the blade like that for a little while longer... when you get a nice knife like a bm42 and its not taped you will cut off your finger

[Renaissance-Reborn]

Yea, one of the only positive sides of not taping your blade is you're forced to tighten your moves. It's a sort of conditioning. If you do the move right, you receive mental stimulation, if you fail, physical pain. But that's not to say you won't get better with practice

@Josh...If i can advice, with no offense. No problem if have your blade is protected (if we know, in black color good idea ), but you MUST work as if it was not. Flipp relaxs, and calmly, by taking the time . Flipp with the weight of the Handle of the bali and the kinetic energy of the tricks moves. Not with strength, nor by trying to make fast. And make aerials only if you master the thrown and the catch.

@DOA, attractive work, but I think too far from the camera . Beautiful aerial. Nice flipping. I want to see more of your flipp. ( close vote between you and Balisong Kid )

Voted for "the Kid " , nice session, with a work on several plans. You move to put your flipp in evidence, in front of the camera, it looks of beautiful effects and lets us see the beauty of the seventh tricks does well.

I don't know who will win this challenge, but great to each of you. Great to Challenge with 3 opponants.
( I hope you understand what i mean with my F....english )

I voted bk in the other challenges cause I felt his routines were more
complete. This time I felt there were some more stalls. So I'm giving
it DOA on this one. Had BK connected his whole routine with less
hesitation he would have taken this one easy.

Joshuawy, I like how you went outside the box and tried some new
moves like the knee hit and the bicep hit thing. Greg's advice was
good so I'd go off that. My advice is to work on one staple trick you
like for now just to keep your routine a little more uniform and fluid.
I'd suggest twirling and/or the helix.

Good challenge guys.
