Let me know what you think of them. Best trick is at the end. You've probably only ever seen Jon Schneider do that one

Really cool video man. You have so much balance to be reverse swirling twice in a row changing from clippers to dragons. Props man, might have to bust out my dragons and flappers today.

Hey thanks guys! I really wanna get good at this stuff flipside, though. I can hit some of this flipside, but others I have trouble with.

Haha thanks dude! I actually hit one midstring today!

I should have also thanked Tiger Balm in this video haha

Oh yeah that bag's sick as hell! Some doucher made it for me

That last little part about "developing my unique style" made me laugh out loud. Good one.

I only like the last combo. Here is a hint, speed up.

credits were a little corny.

Good stuff though. Reverse swirls look stupid easy for you, the height on one of them really surprised me.

Your going to be ridiculous once you get more concepts under your belt to combine with the weird shit.

James: Yeah, I know, I'm a doucher

But I've been mediocre at footbag for so long, and myself and my friends are finally starting to notice a particular style to my shred. Thanks for the comment too, this was just a video to show my new tricks. But in regular shred circles, I plan on speeding these up. Thanks for the tip dude.

Kevin: Yeah the credits were a lame ass addition, I'll admit it, but I really wanted to thank/give props to those guys, because I really could not have learned these tricks without their videos and matt and jon giving me pointers at tourneys and whatnot. Matt taught me reverse swirls at Funtastiks last year and I got pretty fluent with them. I just didn't want to take full credit for the tricks. And thanks! That last part about "getting more concepts under my belt" really felt great to hear. Those kinds of compliments really push me to get better. I'm finally getting somewhere with freestyle and it feels awesome

Nick, I think you have an awesome unique style, and that if you apply basic drills to both sides to even your skills up from foot to foot, you will have a totally solid awesome unique style.

Thanks for the shout out. Jon's influence has been absolutely seminal to the way I tried to craft my footbag style (don't take that the wrong way

) so I know exactly how you felt when you wrote that outro. I credit him almost every time someone compliments me on something out of the ordinary.

Like I said, stuff like what you just said really pushes me to keep on drilling and practicing. Thank you so much man. Don't think that doesn't mean much to me, because it truly does. I plan on drilling the hell out of my flipside and catch it up. You just made my day man.

You know good music, sir.

I hit rev swirling flapper stall bs today inspired by this video.

Full circle, baby. It's what footbag is all about.

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 08 Aug 2010 17:07

Props man! I'm so stoked that you were inspired by this!

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 08 Aug 2010 18:08

Matt, because you were inspired, I was inspired by your inspiration. I had a mini-session with my neighbor, hit forehead stall> blind sole stall bs. I hit it strong side first, then thought that I probably should work on my flip sole before I try it weak sided. But then I remembered how you hit rev swirl> flapper stall both sides, so I figured I'd try it. And sure enough... 2nd try flipside. I just experienced a crazy looping circle of inspiring inspirations that were inspired by inspirations

Hey Nick,

I just got back from Worlds today

, so I didn't see this until just now. All I can say is that I'm really impressed (like

, see?), and that I would have been the first one to say so had I not been away from my computer this week, and that I'm looking forward to kicking with you and talking with you at Funtastics in a few weeks.

F[uns]tylin' Eclectic · Post by **F[uns]tylin' Eclectic** » 08 Aug 2010 18:48

Jon, you have no idea how EFFING COOL that is to hear from you haha I seriously can't wait to kick with you again dude. And you KNOW i'll be at Funtastiks! Can't wait to shred man! Have a good one! Thanks for all the inspiration!
