Kenny Shults report

JFootbagger · Post by **JFootbagger** » 15 Nov 2004 16:15

I have to do a research paper about a person who has created significance in his or her field of work. Since I can basically choose about ANYONE that has done so, I have choosen to research Mr. Kenny Shults for my research paper. Can anybody refer any informational sites or interviews that I can get my reserach from?

I am excited to do this research paper (and the only reason is, because it's about Kenny Shults, who I think, has left a huge and postive impression.)

same with tricks of the trade 1.

you can say he was the godfather of footbag. There wouldn't be footbag without him.

Does anybody know any Tricks that Kenny has invented? Or like any examples how he revolutionized Footbag from like the hacky sack-ish feel to the hard core rippin' and bustin'?

have you watched TT1 and 2? those would answer a lot of your questions regarding kenny. have you emailed kenny? he would probably be quite willing to help you out with these kinds of questions. his email is on http://www.footbag.org if you search through the member directory.

you should do these things before you ask questions of people whose answer is going to be heresay, or at best, taken from / as a secondary source.

get it from the horse's mouth. the horse is readily accessible and really friendly.

When I get home from school I'll try to find an interview I have with him on my computer and post it for you. It probably has alot of good information you could use for your report. I'm sure like Matt said you could e-mail him and ask him some questions of your own. He is really nice and if you get ahold of him in time you could write a report directly from the source.

I heard that he invented that thing... um.. "almost everything"... not quite literally, but effectively.
