Definitely awesome. Glad I downloaded both of the videos. I liked both of them. You guys are awesome. Bring your whole crew to the next event near you! Actually you've got enough people to start up your own event, do that!

But definitely... I like the different styles of everyone and I'm glad you let everyone into the video (or most everyond, there were some 4 squarer's that didn't get an intro or anything I think). But definitely. Get all of these guys on modified! Definitely get those girls on modified, more girls is always good. Looks like you guys are having fun - and you have a very similar taste in music compared to what I had growing up, so that's cool... it's very... familiar.

Good job!

Thanks dude!

I'm telling you Henry, your parents and you need to take a nice long summer vacation down here to Vegas. Then all of us could shred together.

Actually, we should really have another Vegas Jam then invite everyone to come down. I mean there's no shortage of hotels down here, always places to stay.

And there's no better place to shred, just think about it...

We have a huge session from people all over, get all tired and hungry and worn out. Then drive down to a hotel and eat at one of their buffets (which are all you can eat, of course). I mean what could be better then that? Unlimited shred and unlimited food? Nothing's better.

Ya Loren...Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more

EDIT:

That's funny we posted at the same time and had the same idea...wierd. :wink:

Alright, I've had some time to think it over....and now I guess I'm okay with the blooper reel. If it weren't for the blooper reel you wouldn't have such great quotes from me such as "Take this ya testicle!!!" or "Alright let's go back to freestyle, all this just playin' hack is gonna get somebody hurt." or who could forget "I just heard my muscle stretch." Man, I guess I am just poetic at times. But the worst thing was in the first part when I waited for the music to start and just biffed it completely. But good work Ben......can I have my camera back now?

Ya, for the longest time it used to be just Loren, Evan, and me. Every once and a while some other person that used to be in the club would come and play with us, but for near a year it was just the 3 of us.

Then Steve and Andrew came, after that the club exploded. It was a combination of me and Loren playing on this stage at school and Steve and Andrew telling everyone about footbag that made the club what it is right now and I hope it stays this way.

anyways, hotels are very expensive, but if we do have a competition i could probably arrange for some rooms at either the palms or ceasers

Now THATS even more of what I like to here. I'm sure with some fancy footwork, theatre major charisma, and some flexing of the ifpa, I'm sure I could use my MTV and red bull connects to blow the roof off the mere idea of an event here. It could be epic... more than 100 shredders in attendance...what possibilities...

All I was doing was squatting down to feel the footbag on the ground....it was rather soft if I remember, kind of like a Revolution bag.

Thanks Lon :-)

Ben turned guiltless right after I got back from worlds thinking I needed to play morelike Nate. I think he liked the influence the bit of work I did with him towards ducks and spins had on him in giving him easy 4 adds without sets. Between that and osis work, he mastered all of that, and in turn, mastered clip control, giving him early access to such tricks as blurry whirl, ps whirl, and mobius. I would say that since then he has worked shuffle, mastered flip, frozen everything, and now hitting things like bedwetter he's just a great player all around...but definately a lot of Nate in his game. Nate and Pete...and Nate has a lot of Pete in him so thats there too 8)
