He is in The Next Level, Time To Jam and CIC Shred. Contact Dan Klokow if interested. He is also in Bust Out Now, The Sickening and maybe Vortex, Im not 100% on that one though. I would say go with time to jam, its the most recent and best footage.

hes in vortex. but his section is aweful. best footage is on time 2 jam. 3 minutes of stuff that isnt possible. the next level prolly has more footage. but its older. stuff like superfly, big apple, marius, fury, void > pdx eggbeater. whirling swirl > whirlygig is the phattest combo EVER!!

Watching Risden shred was quite amazing, in time 2 shred, you have to watch it a couple times to decypher how the hell he does these things with such ease. One of my favorites is Lon, never met him, but i love his style, very versatile. Some of the cooler people i've met is Matt :wink: Also Sebastien and Yacine, also Ken S., freestylers are some of the damn coolest people i've met. That's why footbag is so great...to bad I haven't gotten back into footbag yet. I think it's time though...just gotta get passed this knee of mine.

I have a hard time deciphering stuff that Risden or Peter Irish do sometimes. They both do tricks soooo smooth that you forget the difficulty of the tricks they are hitting. That is why they are two of my favorite shredders to watch.

I'm the same way. I won't even try to put a move into a run until it is clean. And clean to me is different from other people's clean.
