Damiano è un simpatico freestyler di Castel Franco Veneto. Mi ricordo ancora il giorno in cui ci conoscemmo, era il lunedì dopo FPAW 2004.
Ero sulla spiaggia di Rimini, come tanti altri freestyler, tutti desiderosi di giocare ancora un giorno tutti insieme. Mi ricordo in particolare fra gli altri Lori Daniels, Pipo, Jan, Dave L., Arthur. Un lungo giorno di indimenticabili jam. Read the rest of this entry »

Basta! Ho deciso! Stop!
Considerato che un post in inglese mi costava mediamente 3 minuti a parola, e che non è neppure carino fare passare mesi fra eventi e post, specie se viene scritto comunque con una densità di errori grammaticali da brividi per chiunque abbia idea del significato della parola english… sono giunto a questa decisione!

Tutti i nuovi post saranno in italiano.
Magari alcuni nuovi post verranno tradotti in english successivamente.
Vedremo.

Per ora voglio solo provare l’ebbrezza di scrivere 2-3 post senza dover pensare troppo alla grammatica e al vocabolario.

Yesterday I went to the park for jamming a bit, and I was wondering if RickyBoy might appears.
I was feeling something..
I asked Claudio “Is RickyBoy coming?”
Claudio reply “I don’t know, I don’t think, we need to do something, Rickyboy is playing only ultimate”.

I was sticking my fake nails, when we saw Rickyboy coming in our direction with a big smile. I felt a big bang to heart, a bang full of joy for the event. Claudio also was excited for the return of the SpaceJammer.
We jammed the first 20 minutes with sunlight, then one hour from the darkening to complete darkness.
RickyBoy has special natural duty for coops and moobopping, I really like to play with him. Claudio, on the other side, is getting every day higher difficulty tecnics.
I wanna mix these two guys!

Disc Golf is so nice! I would like to see some disc golf parks in Italy.. and why not in Forlì!?
Look at this, ok.. heaven is a big word… so watch also this!
I really would like to play sometimes, but only after a jam!

Saturday Feller, Sergio and Filippo left Milano for a jam in Romagna.
Just a jam, and a trip coming and back about 600Km in the same day. Wow!
They would like to stop in Bologna, and jam with Manuel and Bologna jammers. Read the rest of this entry »

Nice move!
A lot of jammers, included me, were reporting that a lot of Discraft SkyStylers were broking prematurely, and so we wrote to Discraft. We need disc with a better plastic, we can’t broke 3 or 4 disc for a week!
Discraft answered:

Thank you for your feedback on the quality of the Sky-Styler discs. We are continually working on improving the quality and consistency of our discs and feedback from you is always appreciated. To help resolve the issue that you’re experiencing with the cracking of the Sky-Stylers we would like some more details. Are the cracked discs a specific color, are they softer or harder ones or are you finding that all of them are cracking? With the feedback we are receiving from players like you, we will look into this issue and make the appropriate changes to the production process.

Thank you in advance for your support and communication on this situation.

And then… on wrightlife:replacement disc!
We’ll need to pay the shipping, but I think it’s a nice move from Discraft.
Now I need to collect memories about all the discs that I broke recently!

Amazing! Wonderful!
You have to see the “California Girls” frisbee video!
It is a very well made video, with Amy Bekken and Stacy Anderson.
The smell is pure ‘80, the music, the bikini, and it’s very lovely.
I would like to know when, where, why this video was recorded.
I’ll try to get out more information I can…

P.S.
there are others video online today, from CrazyManuel:

Updated:
The link “california video” was not working, sorry.
I’ve fixed now, but I’m not sure if it’s very legal what I’ve done.
(The link on the image needs the filename param,
that I’ve found on the html source and then attached to the link ).
I’ll ask to Larry, webmaster of freestyledisc.org

Updated Bis:
It appears that for someone also thenew link is not working…
So go to FPA gallery and search for “california girls”

I’m really fired up in cause of the last weekend.
Friday I met Claudio in Parco Agosto, and we jammed for one hour.
Claudio reported me that Cega is not playing now, beacause he is working on grape and wine.. but the worst is that we no info about RickyBoy, our favorite spacejammer. I really hope to see him coming back to jam, sooner or later.
Claudio is playing hard as usual, his spin is going faster, and now I feel very good playing with him.
Saturday is “jamming on the beach” on my “jammer bible”, and not only for me!
This saturday was the first time coming back to jam with Luca and Clay, after the European Championship. We were all happy for the end of the tournaments, and ready for jamming! After half an hour also Andrea was jamming with us. The old Romagna team was complete. The wind was very soft, but steady fortunately. The weather was perfect, 25° and sun.
When all the energies were gone, I was already playing, or better, trying to play. Sandra at the end stopped me, after 10 minutes I was trying to give me another spin. I tryed to ask to Clay and Luca for sharing a gym for the winter, and they agreed!!
I don’t like to play in a gym, but with my new work and the winter, it’s the only way to practice a bit during the week.
So, I’m looking for a gym in Forlì or Cesena… wanna help me?
