HELLO EVERYTHING
I realize you're all probably hella sick of me right now so I'll try make this as quick as I can haha !
As many of you know after I released We'reWolf in 2007 I started working on my second sampler (Of three) which I had originally intended to release after ATG 2009 in January. Unfortunately, the high impact landings of many of the goals I was working on along with the insane stress I was putting on my body night in night out was far more than I anticipated and my left knee entirely collapsed in early October leaving me unable to walk without crutches, out of tricking and totally depressed haha !
After being of my feet for two to three weeks, my physio checked me out, threatened me with potential surgery and told me that I would be on crutches until late January this year and that should things go smoothly with my recovery I would be able to lightly jump around again in early march, putting me out for ATG and destroying any chance I had of finishing my sampler on time
Of course, like I expect many of you have done in the past, I took his advice with a pinch of salt, entirely ignored him, stocked up on painkillers and that following December went back to gym !
That's where this sampler comes in I know this sounds stupid but the actual tricks in this one are irrelevant, for the most part they were unplanned, rusty as hell, hurt like a b**** and were done on a hilariously unsafe amount of painkillers. What's important here though is the fact I stood back up after the hardest fall I've ever had to face in tricking so far and got my s*** together enough to trick again at ATG this year. For me, this video represents the SPIRIT tricking has given me to never ever EVER give up =D

More important than even that though, I have to shout out to some of the most AMAZING people I've had the pleasure of sharing life with lately. To my incredible friends in Disastricks, Team E, FS, HTU, MEM, TOT, Tricksrael, Roanoke and ESPECIALLY John McLay, Phil and Sarah from my own Team Inversion. The concern and support you guys have shown me in the last few months has touched me beyond anything I could ever express in words. Holy s*** you guys. Thank you so much.
NOW. I am going back underground haha. I am beyond hell bent on finishing this sampler so come hell high water or corrective surgery it's gonna get done
I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
Apologies for the essay haha !!!
If you ever meet me in real life, I owe you a cookie for reading all of that
