Ok, so its not a big deal by anyones standards but mine, but i landed my first two aerials. Procrastination, fear of tomorrows metaphysics exam and fatigue have all come together to help me stick my first aerial flip. Nothing special, just a slow old single, but I'm on my way! Oh yea... Sabo, i know how yer kid feels. No need to reply, i just wanted to burn off some excitment before I start to cut myself.

).

I guess the fatalistic state of mind you got from that metaphysics exam really pushed ya. Keep it up and congrats! Feels good as the first time I was able to tie my shoelaces!

Ahhhhh, very good Grasshopper. Phase one complete.

Now the key is to be able to pull right from the sheath, into it.

But remember, only the first time counts. Meaning: if you can do it 500 times in a row, but you always miss on the first try, you lose.

getting 'em open
is half the fun!
 
Thanks Susan and Clay (Chuck to, the vid of you and the leatherman helped me get finger roles started). I don't have a belt sheath (yet, but as described elsewere, that is in the works). I can do a fast draw from pocket or coin pocket (as i described a few days ago) to single fip. Now, when i get the custom made, i can put the 42 in there, and take the production sheath for the Jags and practice the velcro relase meathod... so many options.
