That also really surprised me. Given how long Flash was at Penn State, it's weird you guys never overlapped.F[uns]tylin' Eclectic wrote: If you could play footbag with one shredder you haven`t played with yet, who would it be?: Flash or Lon
I think I'll give this a go again sometime this winter. I haven't updated mine in a while.

Re: Footbag Profile/Survey
Well, we overlapped once at the final Funtastiks. But I was too shy to go kick with him, because I was tiltless at that point and kind of assumed that a BAP player wouldn't want me in the circle :/ I wish I had just grown some balls and kicked with him. He is one of my biggest inspirations nowadays and I kick myself knowing that I passed up the opportunity to play footbag with him :/ Maybe one day.
Re: Footbag Profile/Survey
Haven't done this in 2.5 years, so thought it'd be fun to update. Updates in red.
Name: Ken "Ceiling-Fan" Somolinos
How long have you played footbag?: 11.5 years 13.5 years Over 16 years now.
What is your preferred footbag to play with?: Waylon bags. At the moment, Hania bags. Hania and Waylon bags
If you could play footbag with one shredder you haven`t played with yet, who would it be?: Manna Mpepo. Not sure I've played with Ricky Moran? Who's left?
Footbag achievement of which you are most proud: Helping the development of the Japanese footbag scene. Still this. On a personal level, I'd say 5 dropless routines.Still Japan. On a personal level, I'd saying winning USO this year.
What is your favorite footbag video of all time (only one): Nick Landes vs. the Gorillaz That's still a good one. I also really liked Ben Cook's video of his vacation in the carribean. Those are both still favorites of mine. I'll add this one to the list:
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaQD1NIXcXc[/youtube]
What is your favorite footbag trick name?: Clownface Still #1. Still #1. Honorable mention to "volkswagon," which is vortex set from and to a dragon.
What is the hardest move you can hit flipside? Double spinning clipper/ducking pdx eggbeater/bws? Who knows. Those are all hard. Frenzy maybe.Probably blurrier swirl.
What is the hardest move you can hit consistently? No idea. Not sure how I defined "consistently" before. Yeah...if we're talking like 9/10 consistent, I'd have to say fusion or food?
What is your best dex-free trick? Double spinning eclipse Still. Spinning ducking spinning clipper.
What are your best 2/3/4 dex tricks? HPD, muted tapping WHAT?!, blurry flurry. PSWS, whirligig swirl, blurry flurry. Alpine big apple, atomic grifter, pdx chainsaw massacre, blurry flurry
What trick do you most want to hit, right now?: Spinning mobius Finally got that! I guess 69 now. Nemesis or 69.
If you could take one component (spins, double overs, ducks) from any footbag player in the world, what would it be, and from whom? Spinning ducking from Ricky Moran. Furious set from Dave Clavens, or Suderman's nukes. Still either of these.
What is your favorite footbag player nickname (doesnt have to be BAP): The Chosen Juan (Juan Rangel). Still #1. Still #1.
If you could visit one footbag city in the world, where would you go?: Berlin or Paris. Made it to Berlin in 09! Paris. Paris or Venezuela..
What is the best tournament you have ever attended? Worlds 05 was the best-run tourney I've been to. New York Jam this year was probably the one where I had the most fun. Worlds 09 was the best run tourney I've been to. NYFA Jam 08 was the most fun. Still feel Berlin was the best run tourney. Most fun and satisfying for me is still NYFA 08.
Who has been the most influential person to your footbag development? I learned my basics by watching Josh Penney. I'd say NYFA as a whole. NYFA.
Name one footbag goal you have for the next 6 months: Improve my flip spinning, and make bothsided spinning a big part of my game. I'd also like to get one more dropless routine this year. I still like these goals. But I think mobius x2 is biggest on my list at this moment. Got that 6th dropless, got mobius x2. Tournament season is likely over for me, so I'll say improve double spinning is top of my list.
Name one really good friend you have made through footbag: Bruce Dole. Ian Brill. Evan Gatesman.

Re: Footbag Profile/Survey
It's really strange reading the first half of this thread, trying to remember the last time I'd heard most of the names there.
Anyway, my last one was from like 6 years ago, so I'll update as well. It's funny reading this and hardly recognizing my own words or personality from so long ago.
Name:
Matthew Kemmer
How long have you played footbag?:
February 2006
I think that's a funny way to answer the question, and I can sort of remember being in the mindset to do that. 7.5 years now.
What is your preferred footbag to play with?:
Claven's Amaretta
I don't mind too much anymore, but I've really enjoyed the last few Ivan bags I've used.
If you could play footbag with one shredder you haven`t played with yet, who would it be?:
Mike Toolan
I've met Mike a couple times now. There's not many people I haven't met, so I'll twist the question a little bit and say I'd like to play with Kevin Hogan again.
Footbag achievement of which you are most proud:
..........
Ha, again, can sort of remember why I would do that. Making semi-finals in Circle (and Routine) at Worlds 2010 was a good one.
What is your favorite footbag video of all time (only one):
That 7.5 minute Worlds 2004 one
That's still a good one. I really like DC's Autum.
What is your favorite footbag trick name?:
Scorpion's Tail
I don't care too much about trick nicknames anymore, but Scorpion's Tail is still pretty awesome.
What is the hardest move you can hit flipside?
Haze
I have hit flip Blazing Drifter a couple times, but PS Egg is a more accurate answer for can hit
What is the hardest move you can hit consistently?
Blurry Drifter
Blazing Drifter
What is your best dex-free trick?
Spinning Ducking Clipper
I like Inspinning Clipper a lot
What are your best 2/3/4 dex tricks?
2: Tombstone
3: Fog
4: N/A
I'll separate into Can Hit and Have Hit (Can / Have)
2: Blazing Drifter / Symp. Blazing Drifter or Blazing Torque
3. Predator / Blazing DLO
4. Still none really / Nemesis (but it's been years)
What trick do you most want to hit, right now?:
Harder Double Down moves
Rev. Swirl stuff, cause I'm awful at that motion
If you could take one component (spins, double overs, ducks) from any footbag player in the world, what would it be, and from whom?
Vasek's Quantum
Interesting answer, younger Matt. Aleksi's Double Downs, I suppose.
What is your favorite footbag player nickname (doesnt have to be BAP):
Destroyer
I think most of the ones I've heard are pretty silly. I guess I like Canadian Hero, because it's really dumb.
If you could visit one footbag city in the world, where would you go?:
Penn State
Visited earlier this year. I'd love to go to anywhere in Poland, not only for footbag, but for heritage reasons.
What is your favorite footbag forum?:
.in
Not really worth answering anymore, but I can imagine that I would've found it funny to answer like this back then.
What is the best tournament you have ever attended?
Worlds 2007 (only attended)
In terms of the whole experience, it would be USO 2009 for the 2 week trip that surrounded it. For just the tournament, either Worlds 2010 or 2013
Who have been the most influential persons to your footbag development?
David Clavens
Still true, in terms of form and trick selection. I'll also add Zac Miley for being my long-distance shred partner for so long.
Name one footbag goal you have for the next 6 months:
Get good
Get back in shape (both physical and footbag)
Name one really good friend you have made through footbag:
Will Digges
Yep. I think I originally did this right before Zac and I became friends, and more recently, I'll say Nick Polini.
Anyway, my last one was from like 6 years ago, so I'll update as well. It's funny reading this and hardly recognizing my own words or personality from so long ago.
