Trickster

Yesterday I tried tricking. I met up with two friends at a gymnastics facility where they both work, and I'm glad we had mats to practice on because it's been a while since I've done any flips. After a couple of tumbles I got reacquainted with my old tricks. Now I'm looking to learn some new ones, so next time I'll start to try the corkscrew, butterfly twist, and double leg.

What I like most about tricking, more than any one move, is when guys flow things together and emphasize the capoeira and break dancing influences. Tricking uses elements from a bunch of styles that I like, so I'm excited to practice some more.

That is what I looked like at the last Dillinger Escape Plan show I went to.
