argh.

For those that dont know who Dantess (Jay) is, he's basically what I believe to be one of the most awesome people who is going to be one of the best MA trickers in the future, as far as pure martial arts is concerned.

Unfortunately he dislocated his shoulder 3 times last year, and the last time they decided that they were going to operate on it to hold it in.

Today though he thinks he might have ripped the part that they stitched up inside his shoulder and he said now it feels pretty loose in the socket.

He's going to see a physio on friday, but i'd like everyone to wish him good luck and hope its not bad news.

For those that dont know who he is, heres a vid of some of his basic kicks.

he is also the guy who landed parafuso b/s 1260's ages ago and has come incredibly close to landing a triple btwist off a vault. Whether you choose to believe that or not is up to you, but i know the guy and I don't doubt him at all.

Good luck, Dantess! don't get discouraged by something like this, you're too good to let it affect you. This news makes me sad.

You've got an ice cold style. Condition that shiet and bring it out bigger and badder than ever!

yeah man :sad:

i was so gutted when i spoke to him last night, he's been getting more stuff back over the past month, he got 540s/540hooks/c9s and a load of other stuff down in his first session back.

I'm supposed to be tricking with him next week. I think we should change our team name to "Team Fucked Shoulders" as i've got sublux issues with both shoulders now haha

This is so saaad, I remember seeing that basic kick vid and I was like:"omg his trick must be sharp and fast as fuck!!"

I don't know if he trained his shoulder to be stronger, 3 times in one years... dang
