😎 How about one in mid-air! Like half-way around.
He’ll be “flipping” again tonight. I’ll try to get one. I finally found a setting that does pretty well with action.
Here’s a midair shot taken on the sport mode. I found this mode to be quite blurry, which I wouldn’t have expected.
That’s pretty cool, James. Are you enjoying the school?
Do you enjoy flipping out? 🙂
I do enjoy flipping for the school. Today we had a pep rally, at which I flipped again. It was a lot of fun, but I tumbled so much today, I’m rather sore. I’m not looking forward to waking up tomorrow to immobile limbs. I’m actually one of the “Founding Fathers” of the “Covenant Crazies.” The idea began, I believe, with Duke Univserity. The “Cameron Crazies” at Duke are the wildest basketball fans in any college (so I’ve heard), so my school has started its own Crazies group. So, we Founding Fathers helped lead the pep rally.
I’m still not enjoying the school as well as I would have liked. Though the science and language (Latin) departments are better here, the majority of the teachers just don’t teach with the Christian worldview that FCS had. So, my AP government class is taught out of a liberal, politcally correct textbook, and taught by a teacher who doesn’t even like U.S. History… But I have more friends there now, and I do have some good classes. But the school still needs a big-tim reformation to turn it around. Pray that there might be one!
How discouraging about the history class!
It almost hurts me to see your flips. Hope the soreness was only a little and didn’t last. It is nice to have the abilities and insights you have from the years of training you went through.
