@horton the "Baller Studio" has the acoustics of a 5 gallon bucket... keep up the good work!

[TylerR]

@E_T‌ I would argue that the bucket gives less echo...

[Horton]

Yea yea. I know. I have two 6x6 pieces of acoustic foam in there plus what ever else is in the room. If you have advice send it along but NOT in this thread.

What was the "dog leash" length section of rope? Was it a 28' off section in case you need to go to the dark side and run 28?

[Texas6]

Love the 361/2' loop idea! And the prototype with arm guard is exactly what we need from a handle manufacturer!

I have been ordering products from Brenda for years. She is great!

[Chad_Scott]

Horton the unknown rope is a boat tie down. Your near guess was correct. Tie down works pretty well at tournys with inadequate dock tie downs.

[Than_Bogan]

I don't drink much beer, but I had the impression you want to keep it COLD usually?

 

Cool stuff, though. I gotta go order some new Brenda handles!

[Horton]

@Than_Bogan‌ not always. if I were in Antarctica and drinking a fine English beer I would one keep it from getting too cold.

 

yes I know I say something wrong stuff in my videos

[Than_Bogan]

I'd be a disaster doing live unrehearsed videos. But that doesn't mean it isn't fun to make fun of you!

 

Good point about Antarctica, though. I stand corrected.

Horton quote of the day" I'm sure its something amazing if i knew what it was!!!"

[mwetskier]

not for nothing, but looking at your left pant cuff i was wondering who dresses you. standard rules are for shoes -toes go in first and for pants -foot goes through bottom hole so you did get the shoes right :)

I skied with the new In Tow handle last night. Time it took to be comfortable changing from US Gear to In Tow ARS = One pass.

So for like my stuff from her. Cant wait to try the traning loops

[Horton]

The darn training loop is killing me.... I CRUSHED a 36.5 pass tonight. I even did a wrong hand reach / hand drag around 6 ball.

 

As expected my brain knows 36.5 is easy and ya know I sucked as soon as I went all the way to 38 off.

 

Well so the loop is awesome but I am a head case

[Than_Bogan]

I don't want to minimize the extent to which you (and I) are headcases, but 11.625 really is quite a bit easier than 11.25. Consider that while it's "only" a 37cm difference, the gap between -38 and -39 is "only" 50cm. For somebody at that boundary (e.g. me), those 50cm might as well be a 100m cliff.

 

Indeed, even though I still only run -38 on a really good day, I'm definitely thinking about getting an 11m loop, because 10.75m is completely out of reach. I need some type of stepping stone to start to figure something out -- currently it's just a total mess of a 1-ball followed by a pitiful attempt to get somewhere near the 2 ball. I have no expectation that I can run 11m, but maybe I'll be slightly less outclassed by it and can learn something.

[Horton]

@Than_Bogan‌ that pass I ran last night was proof to me that it is lastly mental.

[Horton]

Those 1/2 loops are great. I ran three 36 1/2 off passes today. I am not saying they were pretty passes but is it a stepping stone to running more 38s.
