If I can gather money and get my act together sometime in the near future, I may apply for 25 or 26. I just need to start earning and saving, and to put a video up!

okay bada, i will admit I am impressed. now some change i recomend change the 20lbs vest text to a 9.09KG vest. Also, you might want to put up some stats Oh right, you think that'd be easier for them to understand? I know we use different measurements. I'll fix that I guess. As for stats I didn't really want to waste time with themin the video. Long video = boring. In my letter however I quickly mentioned a few of them. Like my 1 mile time 5:27.

i think they'll know what lbs is, but i think if you put it in metric, they'll find it more respectful. and yhe like a 5:27 mile then inparatheses 1.6km or jsut like 5.27 1.6km
i'd just put everything in metric, but thats just me.

Is that how you do the Curtain Cling and judge the difficulty of the one that was on Sasuke? If so, that's... off. The real thing didn't allow nearly as much thumb assistance.

If history is correct and they are doing taping sometime in Mid December.. then the deadline for M9 is Mid November.. so.. you have less than 2 weeks to send it out before they close submissions.

No Oti, like I said my camera broke and I couldn't get all of the footage I wanted. Though that one I had recorded is sort of like the one from Sasuke 18. I've replicated the original with 1 sheet only, I know how hard it is.

So far, that's the ONLY curtain Cling/Swing I've seen in a video so far. Great job Bada and good luck!

In my letter however I quickly mentioned a few of them. Like my 1 mile time 5:27. Lol, that's nearly twice as fast as my best mile ever: 9:15. Yeah, I know, I'm a terrible runner---I've REALLY got to work on that. Good thing Too bad it's getting pretty cold up here in Pennsylvania now in November.

Well that's not my normal time or anything... just my best. If I could get 5:27 regularly that'd be awesome, lol.
I usually get 6:00... give or take 10. On a good day I get 6:40. On a day where I'm REALLY REALLY doing good for whatever reason (Trying to beat someone in a race, track meet etc) then I'll get my 5:27 time.

2 weeks...geeez... well, I don't know if we (me and my friend training with me) are sending a video, tho. We'd like to, but I still don't know if his parents (my parent's won't...they can't) would pay us the trip if at least one of us was chosen. Sending it knowing we can't go would feel like a mock. Anyway, BOT. Baron (and Bada) great job. I liked your imagination in finding (or building...loved the curtain cling) obstacles .

Thank you! yeah, having no money sucks. I've just been saving money for EVER so now I finally have enough. My parents though don't want me going alone so if I make it they'll pay for someone else (probably my brother or dad) Besides, I don't wanna get lost in translation

That's should be enough Japanese to get you through.

When there's that much of a difference, yes. HOWEVER, he's not passing that off as the Curtain Cling, so it's all good.

Bah, cant embed facebook video. Anyway heres the link to it on facebook. Dont want to put in on youtube because the music will probably get it deleted anyway, hell facebook will boot it sooner or later too. But Ive got the ANW run attached to the one Im sending to Japan, just couldnt do it here due to the NDA. Really wish I had more time for this one but eh, head start on ANC 7 / ANW 2 none the less! www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=547388118172&saved#/video/video.php?v=547388118172
