Appreciation post~

...WOW, where to begin.

::sigh::

Let's say that this group sure did make an awesome impression on everyone they encountered here in the States. A very motivational spirit was left inside me when they left...

This group has, "got it together". Everything from skilled atheletes, fun-goer's, camera men, loyal fans, an awesome webmaster/leader, a team full of enthusiastic members that unite to get things done, to most importantly...motivation and dedication. They are indeed the future of the online tricking community.

I was able to learn something from each and every person who came to visit from Norway these past 9 days... I feel as if I formally need to thank each and everyone, and I will in fact do that =)
So:

Rene- It's crazy how you went so far to accomplish something you really wanted to do. You contacted me about travel arrangements, made your own plans...and got yourself all the way to the US! You did improve a bit from Germany, and I'd say keep working that Audobon!

Wirat- Wicked chilled dude, and very stylish! I like your style alot, and I like your attitude. Very mellow even in the midst of some bullshi*! You're a cool dude and I hope you don't change~
and stop spending so much money! lol

Aril- SICK photography man! AND sick video action work... You go right into the action to get a good shot, that's sick! Keep close with NAN, and keep helping them dish out them crazy videos! AND thanks alot for all you've done for Justin and I during that photoshoot, that's really a treasure to me...
Also, I'll see what I can do about sending a bucket/tub of Mayo to Norway for ya'! lol

Sebben- Hella perverted and full of gay energy. What a weird but awesome guy you are!~
Man thanks so much for filling me in on so many Norwegian custums and slang words...you did a good job at making me feel really accepted by all the NAN guys, and you also did a really good job at keeping the vibe of the event positive and upbeat. Dude, you are, an awesome guy...
=)
Stop showing people your nuts! lol

Tan Anh Le aka Loc Lam- I swear you look like my friend Loc Lam! But anyways...even though your "english is so bad", you're a really cool dude to be around. Plus you make yourself easy to understand even if you don't know how to say what you want to talk about. But anyways yeah there are people with worse english than you here in the states...your's isnt too bad. Trickwise...I must say you're really good and shouldn't be intimidated too easily! You shouldv't tricked some more in NY. But yeah, you made up for it in the Cape, so you're forgiven. hehe

Mogwai/Bjarte- DAMN DAMN DAMN! So much I can learn from you... So reckless, and fearless, I really like that! All your tricks are so powerful...and the surface doesnt matter /plyo/grass/concrete/sharp, hard sand dune grass- doesnt matter! You're a beast! One that I'll model myself and my future students after... You still have that really youthful attitude at age 20, and that's really cool to see.
be cool~

Fosse/Fabian- Dude, you impressed me SO much! It seems as if you don't ever get sore! You're like from another planet...same as Mogwai, you trick on all surfaces! You're so insane!!! It was cool being able to talk with you a bit, but it seemed like you were a little hesitant to use your english. But anyways, you're really cool, and I hope I get to hang out with you again. =)

SNAKE- MAN, thank you so much for coming out and showing me the way- hehe. It was great all the times we drove around you always picked my car to be in. (that was special to me) I really learned so much from you and your team, with all our in depth chats. I wish I couldv'e spent a little more time with you guys in a more "comfortable setting" as to learn more from eachother...but we did our best.
::sigh::
Yeah it seems as if you and I have alot of work to do, with all the 15 tapes we have combined to scan through and edit!! lol
It was a grand time for me, and I really hope it was the same for you~

New Age Ninjas- You guys are frikkin' gay max, just like our brother team FS! It was funny seeing you guys mesh together on a more "intimate" level, and it just made me see how much of a weird, giant disfunctional family we are in contrast to our roots! lol
All of our energy combined really molded something special, lets just hope we documented this thing properly because this was something we or anyone else in the tricking community shouldn't know about or never forget!

Jim Ng/ Jester- Man if it wasn't for you, this event wouldn't have worked! Man you helped out so much...Enough of this, "I'm not fit to be a leader!" crap. You have some learship qualities and should embrace them! You looked like you had so much fun with the NAN guys, and I'll just remind you that YOU and MOGWAI are going down in the forums with that "hella gay photo"! haha

Sebastian/RedMunkey- You, really helped bring all the people together at the gym man. You made the arrangements for the gym, that's super important! Thanks for all your efforts and it was so crazy having you around for the trip! You really added a cool vibe to the week~

Justin and Family- THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU....I think you understand? yeeeeah~
For everyone else who doesn't, lets just say these people are gold!

Mike and Family- I really didn't think you guys would be too keen on having like 10 guests stay in your home, but you guys showed alot of enthusiasm. It really comforted me seeing you guys so laid back about the situation and as a result helped me loosen up a bit, so that I could enjoy myself. Thanks alot for that awesome dinner, and Matt thanks alot for your anime collection and for bringing us to the beach! Mike...sorry for the incident~

Rob Cabral- You kept the gym open for us! ARIGATO! Plus you showed alot of enthusiasm yourself. You kept us having a good time...and that matters man~
BTW, that will be the last time!
:cough:

LAST but not frikkin' least is my boy Trevor Flynn Alling! Bro, you're seriously the man... So supportive. You make so many sacrafices for the team man, and I'll tell you...they aren't looked over. You're greatly appreciated and noticed, and indeed needs to be rewarded! Im not sure how I'm going to do it, but this is a small start...THANK YOU SO MUCH!
(more about Trevor at a later date)
