Heydar

3 clubs, 4 clubs, 5 clubs, 6 clubs, 150 minutes

I was promised a clear day by the BBC, but I only managed a couple of hours before the rain came down. Not a bad couple of hours though.

Another catch with 3 clubs and a headbounce, felt like it was a runnable thing a couple of times. Landed another 3 up 720 on doubles- should practise this more (I think it will improve my 720 technique more than with balls or rings).

Lots of backcross work. Worked on spin transitions, 3 up 360 into and on bxx, 51 and 52512. 51 feels easier than balls or rings, but 52512 feels harder. Then went straight for 5 club bxx and did really well. Was pushing for 3 clean triples but didn't manage to catch them all. Loads of good throws though. Hopefully the first 3 throws are the hardest since I'm doing it from doubles.

Endurance run of about 150 with 5 club doubles, over 40 twice with singles. Couple of good attempts at 5 up 360s- managed to throw the first club again twice, but the 5 up was generally too narrow- got collisions. Made 3 ups feel much easier though.

6 clubs to finish. Still no flash (clean). First 6 out of 8 throws caught at the end.

3 balls, 4 balls, 5 balls, 6 balls, 7 balls, 60 minutes

5 ball mills, 6 and 7 balls kneeling. 3, 4, 5 balls with club balance. Noticeable improvement across the board. Not big, but steady.

Total practice time: 210 minutes

3 clubs, 4 clubs, 65 minutes

3 clubs:
Warm up
4440441
44502 (with thumb roll)
45303 (two connected rounds and back to cascade)
531
55113, second "1" behind my back, two connected rounds and back to cascade.
55500 did not work very well today, maybe because I did it at the end of the session when I was getting tired and it started getting dark outside.

4 clubs:
Fountain, doubles. Best round 24 catches, that's my second best. 3 rounds of 22 catches, that was my personal record a month ago so today was not too bad I guess, even if I had a lot of rounds where I dropped early.

Tried doing a 53 (triple single) and back to fountain but failed. A few times I managed to catch the single and the triple but not the doubles thrown afterwards. Had a hard time getting the triple to land in the right hand.

Total practice time: 65 minutes

7 balls, 3 heavy balls, 5 heavy balls, #outstandingRuns, 230 minutes

3b freestyle, misc - 35 min.5 heavy balls, 200 gr casc - 15 min.   Even a few periods 9-high today.   7b casc - 90 min.   Unit started with a few consecutive good runs and I got into a precious endurance-mood.   One outstanding run that went on long after it should have broken down, and even after what I estimated - during the run - might be round PR now, and another period more, .. so at least 60, I thought 70 throws right after the run, but it was higher height than average, so, long, but maybe not so many catches.   Another thinkworthy run went to like 5 sets of 8 throws counted and felt easy as if it had only just begun and I was expecting it to go on like that, but a ball completely unexpectedly slipped off the ringfinger.   Think, I'm getting better at intuitively (thus faster) seeing_+_finding_+_throwing through those `tunnels´ - had one run that wasn't a "pattern" at all, not one throw matching any other, just chaos, seven columns, perpetual saving-throws, and that for like three periods!?   Also got one of these pulsing up<-->down with breathing out-\\-in patterns.

3b freestyle, misc - 15 min.5 heavy balls, 200 gr casc - 10 min.7b casc - 65 min.   [ dailyLongestRun7b: 60 ]
