Ay Caramba! Where did you come from all the sudden? Wherever you’ve been, we’re sure proud to have you here with us at YYE now! That’s some great stuff you’ve got going there. Excellent style and very smooth presentation throughout. I’ll have to leave a more technical evaluation to come from others here more articulate in their critic. As for me I’m going to put my sox back on cuz they just knocked off. Hope to see a lot more of you around the clubhouse here! ---

If you’re paying me a compliment, I thank you and disregard what I say next 🙂 It would be pretty messed up to use Gentry’s tricks at a contest that he’s going to, but since I made up these combos(yes, there are some Gentry inspired tricks, but the majority of them are Ibs inspired), I don’t think I have to worry. ---

Thank you for the compliment. I can see where the confusion is, since there were two movements in there that I could see as being Gentry inspired, but only one of them actually was. The other I picked up by watching Jordan Hacherl and Andrew Daugherty. Also, Gentry uses a wrist mount, while I use a similar mount from “superman” ---
