The ever popular "Today I..." thread

@Buddha: both hands is impressive
@cub 1/5 for that combo sounds pretty good to me! Nice one.

Today I..... realised that paying more attention to your Speed Trick B than to your porridge as it's microwaving is not that great an idea!

Today I... started filming a new edit and got a few tricks with Harry!

Gonna do a little more filming tomorrow and then hopefully a bit more through the week and then editing shall begin!

*EDIT SPOILER*    I managed Lighthouse - flip - Lighthouse - reverse flip - Lighthouse - double flip - Lighthouse - double reverse flip - Lighthouse - Falling... I've been trying that one for weeks[/b!

nice thorny,
that trick is on my list too.

ended my hiatus. Don't know why, should have had plenty of time during the winter holidays, but I hardly clicked since 06. December. What a shame. Do I have to make a new introduction?

On the plus side, there'll be a new player in our group tomorrow. That makes us ... 3!

...sometimes uses the kettle, but prefers to race trick ladders against the toaster....

Today I raced the saucepan against the BKO 2012 Advanced ladder. Had to add the rice before I conquered #20. I blame the low ceiling.

Today my little daughter (6 years old) reached Arround the World for the first time.... soooo proud of her

ATW at 6? That's pretty good going!!

KCC#8: 21 misses
BKA Advanced tricks": 20 misses

I think I need to make the latter a more regular practice, since I obviously need to polish that up.

Today I "barista'd" a trick ( ie raced the arrival of the coffee I was buying)

Makes a change from "kettling", "toastering" or "saucepanning"...

Today I "barista'd" a trick

*Hi-5!*

I got a few people looking on in interest as I clicked for my coffee. (I can't remember what tricks a was doing - probably just general low-level jamming.) So that's got to be good.

Yesterday Batdancer gave me the idea for a trick: DoubleTap-back. By which, I don't mean two tap-backs in a row, I mean Tap-back, but with two taps in the same direction between the ball leaving and returning to the big cup. After seeing BD do this, I managed a [TripleTap]-back, and then 3 of those in a row. I'm sure a QuadTap-back must be possible too.

[Thorny]

It would be possible with ample knees, Void!
 

Yesterday I managed a new spacewalk variation for the first time :-
Suicide - Handroll - Whirlwind Furiken!

KCC#8: 21 misses
BKA Advanced tricks": 20 misses

KCC#8: 28
BKO Adv: 9
Well, one of them's going in the right direction!

Today after 84 days of workout I reached TOUDAI for the first time.... so cool  ... enjoy!

Today, in my final run-through before Chocfest, I managed a legal run through to step 11 of the Beginners Trick Ladder, with about half a dozen errors accumulated along the way.  My best to date.  I've never yet managed Lighthouse, but if (if!) I get anywhere near this on Sat I'll be pleased.
