work in surrey
« on: January 12, 2010, 02:50:29 PM »
Are there many bockers in Surrey, and anyone interested in doing some paid bocking work in the area? I need people with experience more than a need to do flips.

If so, please contact me directly.

I'm definitely interested!

Oh wait...do we need to do flips?
I can do them in the gym but I'm not confident with doing them on concrete yet, although I can perform well in all other area's (especially jumping high and split kicks, etc).
If we don't need to do flips I have good experience in all other areas (especially general knowledge of the sport and bocks them-selves, since I did extra research for my video review which added to my knowledge).

Bio, he said experience was more important than the ability to do flips... you could interpret this as the work requiring both,
but with a ratio in favour of experience. But personally I'd take it to mean that flips are not essential. That means you qualify. I'm guessing that both would just be a happy bonus.

Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

Why don't we both do it? :Ctongue:
Gonna be hard for me to do it on my own from the sounds of it, though Locky said one important thing is for you to have a spare pair(or more) of stilts.
