Sam: handsome boys you got there brother.
Ric: THis is the reason why I post everything that Cora does online. Others think I'm just boasting about her beating the boys..NO its not that at all. I do post her getting beat up by boys also..right? The reason why I want to share is that I'm a big JJ fan and when we were beginning this life style, I can't really find any "GOOD" videos of kids rolling using high level techniques. Not to mention some of those videos where taken by Ray Charles which left me sitting there wishing they would use the freaking ZOOM function. So with all my videos I want to change that, I want people to see clearly what the moves are and the clean transitions. Maybe some kid that just starting out can benefit from what we are doing. Remember, this sport is great, but if there were no new kids coming up to help push you, being at the top can be very boring. I have been searching for that "next level" for Cora to see what else can be accomplished and so far the ones that I have found are the Routolo Twins. Of all the kids around her age, I think they are IT. Even though they have different fighting style from Cora, she still can learn from them. I'm not sure how long it will take her to get to their level, maybe many more tournaments to build her confidence, maybe a couple more years of serious drilling, but no matter what we know that those boys are the "next level" for Cora. And I'm glad those boys post their videos also.
