The beast combo literally made me groan out loud.

Thank you for the new Landes footage. He has one of my favorite styles out there, like top 2 or 3.

Hey Nick, do you think you could hit a paradox-whirl-free beast? Have you already?

Until the shadows came out, I could have sworn that was done on some movie studio, and that Nick in fact didn't exist. It looked to perfect or something, a mix between that 70's show and shrek.

I loved the shred and the music, god I can't wait to play with Nick again. A runner up for Coolest footbagger there ever was,

The dogs part was hilarious. It was totally something out of a cartoon. And yeah, wicked shred. Nick's zooming is the best. Gotta watch it with music later. 69 > morpheus > mind bender was ridic. So creative. I really liked the kinda quantumy-rubberman2-ish links at the beginning.

Nick is the bomb. I remember shredding with him very well, cause his style is off the hook! glad to see he's shredding hard and keeping it clean. awesome vid. omg i totally did that same kick to a kitty cat once, she wanted the bag and snuck up behind me right before a pendulum. eeek! she was ok luckily.

Firstly, thank you all of the feedback. I'm glad that this video actually got onto the internet :)

So, I filmed this in Bend when I went to visit my family, and it was filmed through a laptop, which is why parts of it a choppy and others are fine. What I wanted to do is make a DVD, and I wanted this to be the first or second chapter, but I figured that this was low-resolution and not long enough so I had Red put it on the internet.

The good news is that I am actually working on said DVD, and I'll be giving away previews (not as long as this one, just some things that weren't quite good enough to make it on the DVD) from the next film set I do. I'll keep the crowd posted about it :)

Nick,
great shred man.
Your shred has been inspiring and helpful to me. I feel that your style is controlled and focused. I like the slow zooming and I have started to incorperate this into my shred . NICE BEAST. 8)

So sweet! Great style, great runs......

The video quality was very odd....def not bad, but strange. I agree with Jay on the shrek-70's thing. :lol:

Ducking hand-catch seal MADE that beast! :P :lol:

I always confuse fastball and cake for some reason. :) I also don't know if this is cake though.


Man Nick, every time I watch you play I remember back at the first SJFF we met at. You hitting your first clean scorps, trying fairy ss barroque (all as an intermediate player!) and being total noobs together. You've come such a long way man, I'm proud as hell of you and your game. Hopefully, I see you again soon. Props and love.

There ar4e only a few players I care to watch nowadays. I've seen it all before so many times. But short vids like these, even with 3 and 4 add links, are so pleasurable to watch because of the style and ease with which it seems you are playing. You truly do have the "easiest"-looking style and it makes freestyle look so nice. Thanks for the vid, and props on your zooming. If you were a girl, I'd be zooming in on you, you shirtless shred man-beast. But you're not, so rest assured I'm fully zoomed out.

This is pretty much footbag porn. Style, difficulty, creativity, and man boobs? What more could one ask for?
