This is how Vasek should have been playing all along.

I guess it's understandable that he'd get bored of clippers and eventually take up the toes.

Great stuff, very satisfying. :)

Thanks FRANK!

Dissagree. He is not half as spectacular with toe play. That wasn't meant that he is not good, just that clippers suit him better.

Cool video with the graffities and all. Just want to rant about zoom-out filming in footbag...I really hate that :x

I wish I knew how it feels to hit all that stuff.

Very well done videos. They perfectly show how amazing this sport is.

Thanks a lot for the videos; it's always nice to see some new footage.

But I am kinda surprised that so many people seem to think that the stuff he was hitting was his best stuff...honestly, to me, it did not look like he was even trying in most of the runs. There were a few that looked like he put some effort into. Oh well, I dunno. Maybe it's just me. :wink:

I was just going to post a topic about these vidz that I did last week and it is already done, good.

Thanks a lot guys for comments.

I have to admit that I have already seen Vaska in better conditions but check it out :

Firstly it was so so cold this days, which is really not nothing.
And secondly he was shredding alone.
And also we were in a rush since I had an important meeting right after and he had to catch a plane back to Praha

The vidz where I saw him hitting some bigger things was summer vidz with better temperature and he was playing with other people which usually makes you play better, gives new ideas and the will to do better than the others or just than yourself

Here, we just arrived, he did a few insides and BANG, so for me as usual : big respect to the High!

For me the only sad thing is that the weather was kind of bad so the light is just shitty, just too bad!

Hey Sir Mentor! we need more vidz from you. Back to production work Mads...
don't play, just dance

this is a great couple videos, thanks franck. It seems that vasek's shred here is less intense than a few years ago, but I like his style, control, and flow a LOT! He used to do more furious sets, but it's cool to see that he's pushing his game in a new direction. He truly is the best. Flurricane BSOS + blurry flurry + montage + plus what? blurriest swirl? maybe... i <3 vasek. I have a great vasek tatoo idea.
BRICK!

Thank you Franck for making these videos. New Vasek footage is always a treat.

Was Vasek playing his hardest in these videos? I really didn’t get that impression, but whether or not he was, I still found it really enjoyable to watch. The fact that he was playing in front of crowds at the Eiffel Tower leads me to believe that he was either:

a. busking, and therefore just working the crowd by playing “easy.â€

Awesome video, thanks Frank!

I really dug the music too - Rob D had so much potential, it's just a shame he only had 3 worthwhile songs - damn his bad vocals. I choreographed a routine to that track (the instrumental version of furious angels) for Aus Champs 2004, but then the CD started skipping and I decided to use a different Rob D track (from his album, which I think was not where I got the instrumental version from).

wow! 8O I get orgasm every time I watch it :D
Montage of the film is very good and music too.
Vasek has changed his style and now he makes in runs lot of diverse tricks. I like it because comboses like ripstein>ripstein>(...)>whirr>whirr>(...)>backside fission were a bit boring already [With full of respect]
Thanks for share!

Same ol' Vasek busting out in the freezing cold and making it look easy.

Good Drills.

One handed handstand!

He always shreds like that and he always shreds great. I don't know how people think he's changed his style. I still saw blury sets and ripstein and whirr and everything.

The best part of footbag is when a new Vasek Video comes out.

Great videos. The production quality is professional grade - widescreen format, 2 Mbps bit rate, and high quality audio.

Thank you for making and sharing these videos.

And thank you Vasek for giving so much to us by allowing people to film you and share it with the world. I like that you are including more toe moves in your game. Tripple around the word and ducking quantum set are really impressive along with everything else you do.

Peace.
