New Personal Records

Well done, One-Eye!!

You did exactly as I hoping you would do. You took full advantage of the hot-mode you were in and got past the 14k on the 250Hz and 12k on the Metal. Both are outstanding scores! Looks like your 14167 score will put you into the Top 100 as well, which is good because the Top 100 is definitely the place you want to be with a 14K+ score. Nice job!

Do you have anymore left in your hot-mode? Keep spinning and see what happens! You might break some more records!

Great scores, One-Eye!

Always Powerballing,

Sorry Duane, the "Hot Mode" passed soon after.

If I'd stuck on 250hz I might've pushed that score higher, but switching to the metal to see what I could do after getting >14k took everything out of me.

Very pleased with my work tonight though.

Well done, One-Eye! I find it's always good to check to see just to make sure you didn't miss another immediate record to follow.

My hot-mode today only got me 15062. That's okay because my fingers were still feeling something from yesterday's session. I only got one 15K+ score today, even though I passed the 15k barrier 4 times the day before. One time is better than no times I suppose.

Remember, after some rest you will be coming back to the Powerball with an added confidence that you didn't have before. You have it 14k. It is definitely an elite group of dedicated and competitive Powerballers. If you are feeling in close to top form, you will find that you might reach near the same marks again next time. Maybe another record soon after. Your body and mind have an interesting way of remembering how a 14k run felt so that you will likely repeat it again.

In the meantime, you might try taking a look at some of the videos from the Powerballers that are above you on the scoreboard. Perhaps you will find something in their technique that you can utilize in your own record attempts. Just small adjustments to your grip and everything else, and soon you will think that 14k is easy and wonder why it took the time it did to get there. But I guess we all go through the same learning patterns in making our own improvements.

Once again, welcome to 14k club! It's a great place to be!

Always Powerballing,
Duane Cash

Congrats on 14k 250hz and 12k 350hz at once!! Both are great achievements!

Congrats One-Eye!

You simply had to break those barriers...ya' did great! Maybe it was all those new Powerballs that gave ya' the boost?

They would sure give a boost to anyone else. Now, you deserve a beer or two...or...seven to celebrate and rest.

Well done mate, just wish i could say id be breaking 14k soon, but i havent got close to my record for over a week now.

**One-Eye** · 21-02-2007, 01:50

Thanks all for your encouraging words.

I'm feeling pretty chuffed still.

Time to rest now though, could be on for another session on Friday night.

Ricky, I got stuck just below 14k for what seemed like aaages.

Rest up, do strength runs, get in your hot mode and keep trying. You'll get there too Ricky.

Well done on the big scores. I just past 13k and it feels awesome to hit those landmarks you've been after for so long. I love the pile of power balls off to the side in the video too
