Topic: TRAIN MAUI

[dajester]

I know a lot of vaults already: lazy, monkey, working on kong, turn, gate, two handed, lazy turn, working on my dash. As far as precsicion goes i can do around a 7 foot same level percision.

[Gregg]

I got the R side safety quickly, but the L side I almost bailed on. I'm used to CLEARING the rail, not doing a side plank onto it

[dajester]

whats the purpose for the safety vault? Couldn't you just do a speed vault instead?

[Gregg]

Purpose for safety vault? I don't know.

In real life you don't always know what's on the other side of a wall. There are walls at Grand Wailea parking structure that have like a 35' drop on the other side. With the safety vault you can stall on top, before committing to landing? That's just a guess.

If I'm jumping "blind" I prefer to 2 hand vault on instead - that way I have both hands and feet on the obstacle, and can crawl to a better drop area if I need to.

Like I said - I didn't know the safety vault or use it. I've seen it in videos of PkGen training kids, but I didn't know it had a name. Never used it before yesterday - not on purpose at least.

[dajester]

oh, that makes sense. I have had that almost happen to me a couple times before. But luckily i checked. If i hadn't i would have thrown myself into a giant dumpster.

[Michael L P]

personally i think preparing a spot is the best step. i dont typically do blind jumps because every time i do there is almost alway one of the following: Rails, Concrete, Animals, People, bushes, other's and etc. so i tend to spot everything first. then leap. hope to train with you soon jesse, sadly a turn of events has lead to me getting kicked out and having to move off island. i will be leaving on the 15th of this month. so if we can meet up at queen K mall or at mcc i would gladly meet you there. im free all the time now.

[Gregg]

I'm so sorry to hear that.
Going to Montana then?

[Michael L P]

ok she had time to cool down in the last few days and everything is going well. we both apologized and forgave so im staying yay. im planing on going into town and see if i cant hunt down jesse lol.

[Gregg]

I'm glad you were able to work things out.
Jesse shouldn't be TOO hard to find. Hope you guys have a great time.
How's tomorrow afternoon looking?

[Michael L P]

100% open for buisness i go back to work on monday and tuesday 10-4 omw to mcc then to queen k for a movie if i cant fine jesse

[Gregg]

Tomorrow afternoon is looking good then! I've got half hour typing left... plus classes tomorrow morning.

[Michael L P]

gregg do you have a phone? i always try get you to call me but you never do. use that *67 crap if you have to block ur number but i wanna know where, when, what, and who. cause i gotta get out there

[Gregg]

I have phone, and I called you - remember? Amber answered - you guys were all in the car going somewhere, and Duke said "Hi" to me.

Also, I've tried to text you, but your old phone was on some network that my t-mobile did not like.

So did you and Jesse hook up or not?

If we don't hear from Jesse I'm up for Kalama tomorrow. Otherwise, I can shell out for bus fare, but Geri has the car. I should be off work 1:30 or so... so if we're at Kalama, I could get there at 2. Kahului I'd get to Queen K around 2:40.

R wrist is still sketchy. It's really annoying me. I can do a lot of L hand stuff tho.

[dajester]

i went out on wendsday. it was pretty crappy. got busted by some state building cops and got really dehydrated. It would be much better if i had someone with me. I can go out again anytime next week (starting on sunday) if you need my number gregg has it. call me up and we'll figure things out

[Gregg]

What were you doing? Did they kick you off property, or what? Details, man!

Water fountains at State building, Wailuku library, Iao School, Wailuku Elem, Wells Park maybe...
I try to load up on water earlier in the day - not so much that it's sloshing around, but a good amount.

So it looks like me and you in Kihei, Michael. Kalama or somewhere else?

[Shiloh]

   Aloha everybody.    Its been a while... I just got the computer fixed so yea im back.   Its exciting to see new faces on the Maui boards. Lookin good.   
I've been dealing with my back these past few months, the scoliosis acting up alot and trying to take the proper route...   So I haven't been as active since here,  just surfing, more MN than PK.  It seems I take a break in the winter when the surf rolls around, then start again in spring to get the conditioning back.  I gotta lose some gut and get the cardio up. 
So I've been frequenting Wailuku a bit this past week. Mornings/noonish.  I hope things went well with the State cops? Jesse.  I've never had any trouble from them around there.   I try and stay low-key as much as possible. Work on the stealth if ya know what I mean.  Anywho, its good to be back and see you guys are doing good.  I always seem to get inspired and motivated when here.  I hope to train with you guys soon. Aloha

[Gregg]

Dude, it is SOOOO good to see you back on. If Jesse wasn't grounded, I was going to text you - see if you could meet up today.
Are you still working both jobs? What's your schedule look like?

[Shiloh]

Thanks G , good to be back.   Im still doing the evenings @ 630, and the day job fluctuates.  I have been pretty open in the day for a while now though.  So i'm down...  Taking that I can keep up with you animals.    I was gonna head down to Waihe'e for a  beach jog and some MN, mainly cause I got some blisters yesterday using my old Swiss's (been mainly barefooting it).  But I could surely adapt...  What you guys got planned?  Just remembered I got a doctors visit at 1430 today.

[Gregg]

Bummer. That's about when I get off work/ planned to train with Michael.
How's Monday afternoon looking?

[Gregg]

Shiloh's # is correct. He responds faster to texts.
Jesse - get together with Shiloh as much as possible. He lives Wailuku, so text him when you get off school, see if he can train.
