Got stuck in a traffic jam at 1:00 in the morning here in the States on the way to a demonstration ... full stop traffic. We turned off the car about thirty feet away from the next one and started messing around with nunchucks, sparring, whatnot. I managed to break myself backflipping from the concrete divider into the slowlane ... came down too steep and stuck the landing on my heel instead of the balls of my feet. Allegedly I poked a hole in the cup with the sharp bone of my heel; I should be out for about four weeks. Not particularly funny, but the nickname Achilles is a nice side benefit

I suck at gainers... I always land on my KNEES! NOT FEET, KNEES!... I just can't get the rotation and the forward movement going at the same time. I could use some help in that area too. Advice?

i took such a bad slam today in london. i was drilling some catgrabs at orange walls and i tried it from my normal spot, then i did a couple to a lower level which i found quite challenging. then i decided to kick it up a notch and go for the bit just after the second light in the wall (those of you who have been will know what im talking about). This is just the same cat only the wall im jumping for is lower and the wall im going to is higher. i gave it a shot and my feet made nice contact with the wall, but my freaken hands didnt.....because my feet were still gripping to the wall, i went horizontal and fell about 4ft onto my arse and back. i seriously should have been really injured, but i got up and shook it off. i still cant believe im not in hospital right now. to make matters worse, there was a french guy there who trains with seb 3 days a week. he heard me hit the ground then came over to see if i was ok. he then proceeded to give me tips on cat (which i was grateful for) but it didnt make me feel much better about making myself look a pillock. i felt like such a pie

LIES! also we dont all wear beefeater hats and keep jam butties in them. or eat crumpets. i hate crumpets. oh well i guess were just as bad, most brits thing all americ ans are thick........but im sure thats not true
