Hey friends,

Here is a video I made of me playing footbag yesterday.

I put in a pile of whipping tricks at the end so that you could all see the fun new set.

woah, nice stuff Tom.

Everything looked really smooth. I liked the silky torques midrun.

What exactly is whipping by the by?

kinda like a pixie set with your calf ? Very cool set, took me a while to see what was goin on. Loved the shred, gets better and better every video. The only thing you could have done better was add a little text bubble for your dog when he was watching you string and add some silly comment "good string",

Tom… you are the man!

Your shred is awsame. It was so cool to see you in action in Copy and Helsinki. It seems most people play even better when they get back home after big tournaments. Nice variety and both sidedness in your tricks.

I defiantly dig your whipping set. Especially Nice that you have called whipping same legover for “Lise”.

It is cool that you play in your “Bevar Christiania” t-shirt and the clip with your dog really cracked me up. What kind is it and what’s it’s name? Man… dogs are the coolest creatures and I guess that’s one of the reasons I like Christiania so much.

Thanx for some great weeks and we all miss you in DK.

Thanks alot for the compliments everyone!

It's really great to hear from you Mads.
Yeah, I feel even stronger now that I am back, all that practice in Europe sure helped my game!

I named whipping ss legover 'Lise' because she suggested the trick and also she is the master of making ss legovers look cool.

My dogs name is Bosco and he is a boxer. He is quite certainly the greatest dog time has ever seen. He's the cutest and nicest dog ever, all he knows how to do is love and have fun, my kind of friend!

I really had a blast playing all sorts of goofy games with you Mads, I plan on picking up a set of clubs and drilling it like mad.
Hanging out with you and the other Mads was like taking free lessons on being cool, you really are great mentors.

I eagerly look forward to more time spent playing!

See you in the sun.

wow Tom!
You have really improved alot. I am loving your drifters and the bsos smoke..oh so close. Good to see you chucking in spins and not being afraid to bail down to a 2 add. Your game is enjoyable to watch!
Haha, your dog is cool aswell.

Did you get a dv camera or something because the frame rate is wayyy better. KEEP MAKING VIDS

tom, your shred looks so good! such a big change from your last video! keep on kicking. whipping looks alot like furious, but i suppose it isn't, since it's called whipping. i really don't understand what it is. you should come to hackrifice and show me!

Whipping is cloud kicking pixie set!

I just set into the cloud from clipper usually because it flows the easiest.

I have done it from ss/op toe/pixie/fairy into whipping set too.

Try it! it's really pretty easy.

Thanks for the props everypeople.

Waw.

I like how you've edited the footie right on the beat. I try that for my videos too.
Veeery clean double downs. How do you manage to whip your leg around so fast?

It's also cool to see how much people progress in one year (cf. this video with 'trippin with trippin' from exactly one year ago).

I wonder what goes on in a dog's mind when he sees freestyle footbag.

Jdigges · Post by **Jdigges** » 08 Aug 2005 07:43

TOOOOOMMMM!!! your soooo good man. I love seeing you shred! you had some awesome strings in there. Those whipping sets are mad cool. I was trying them yesterday at the Jam at Chris Dean's. I almost set a few of them up on my strong side, and sorta started to get my flip. next time i shred i gotta work on em. Can't wait to shred with you again man!

PS...I WANT CLIMAS!

"throw my ball! I am SO excited for you to throw my ball! stop whatever you're doing and THROW MY BALL!!!!"

Probably something like that.

I think I covered alot of ground in my game from last year to this one, I am glad I have two videos that are about a year apart to compare from.

Asmus, I want to come back to Denmark soooo bad!!

Someday soon I'm sure!

Tom, the whipping stuff was cool. I liked how your personality shone through the vid, as usual.

Props.

Wrong my friend!

That is a cloud STALL to pixie whirl.

Whipping is cloud KICKING pixie.

but anyways, jorden did hit whipping like.. a week before me.. I just didn't know that.
