Travis Montoya for his expert coding of the voting pages!
Most importantly all the players for participating! Great Job Guys!

I apologize for the late release of this months competition, it is due to the comotion of the world's and euro's and a very busy time of year for university.

[max]

Sick 3:

1) Phil Morisson (Christchurch, New Zealand) Flurry > Symposium whirl > Ripstien
Super huge, super clean. Very hard decision between you and Anssi.

2) Anssi Sundberg (Turku, Finland) Janiwalker > Tomahawk > Motion
Huge combo also. All tricks were very clean and controlled.

3) Josh Gayhart (Butler, PA, USA) Frantic Legover > Phoenix > Spinning Butterfly Swirl
Great combo, great tricks!

4) Aaron Orton (Camp Pendleton, CA, USA) Pheonix > Ripped Warrior > Tomahawk
Nice combo, I liked the all ducking concept and the first link is very nice. I thought the tomahawk was super-thin though.

5) Nic Bathgate (Dunedin, New Zealand) Spinning paradox mirage > Atomsmasher > Fairy ducking osis
Nice stuff Nick, good tricks, hard links. The duck was a bit sketchy but nice combo!

6) Chris May (Medford, Oregon, USA) Double around the world > Blender > Paradox symposium whirl
Toe blender is cool

7) ???? (Sorry I've lost your name!) Ss drifter > Inside stall legover > Whirl
that first trick looked like a refraction more than a it did a drifter. I liked the legover inside though. And the whirl looked clean. Video was lacking light a bit though.

Toby Suggate (Dunedin, New Zealand) Pixie ss clipper > whirl > ducking clipper
Good control. Unfortunately I couldn't make much out of the duck due to the dark background.

9) Ben Adler (???, ???, ???) Legover > Around the world > Legover
Nice control / style Ben. Granted they're not HUGE tricks but props on control. Vid tip: try and film the whole body next time.

[max]

Sick 1:

1) Tom Mosher (Kingston, Ontario, Canada) Moshing Whirl
That trick is crazy Tom.

2) Honza Weber (Prague, Czech Republic) Pixie Torquescrew
clean, big, unique.

3) Henry Griese (Stoughton, WI, USA) Flailing Drifter
Wow you look young! Props on the trick that's HUGE!

4) Michal Biarda (Warsaw, Poland) Frantic Illusion
Cool trick!

5) Jeremy Mirkin (Tucson, Arizona, USA) Whirring Swirl
that looked super clean!

6) Phil Morisson (Christchurch, New Zealand) Alpine Scorpions tail

7) David Clavens (Bethlehem, Pennsylvania) Nemesis
I had a hard time seeing if the last dex was clean or not. Props though the set was huge.

8 ) Kevin Regamey (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) Flailing Ducking Butterfly
Cool trick Kevin, nice style hitting it too.

9) Joe Kulacz (Chesterville, Maine, USA) Fury
nice set

10) Anssi Sundberg (Turku, Finland) Nemesis
I couldn't quite make out the barfly (frame rate was low) but it didn't look super clean.

11) Jesse Malouf (Victoria Point, Australia) Spikehammer (Alpine Blur)

12) Nic Bathgate (Dunedin, New Zealand) Fog (Blurry Double legover)
Good control.

13) Toby Suggate (Dunedin, New Zealand) Smoke (Pixie Drifter)
I just couldn't see the bag on that clip.

14) Asmus Helms (Svendborg, Denmark) Pixie Miraging Stallberger
Fun trick, too bad about the backlight...

15) Travis Montoya (Las Vegas, Nevada, USA) Pixie Clipper

Sick 3 Votes - I didn't rewatch any parts of the video at all since judges in a real comp don't get that opportunity. I also scored them all out of 6

1. Phil Morisson
Great combo - original and technically difficult - especially the last move. Goes to show that adds don't count for much since this is 4>4>4 I think the middle move is slightly too easy but you hit the combo really well - execution is what got this over the line - 5.3

2. Anssi Sundberg
Also a well hit combo - good execution and variety. I would say the links are not highly technical but all the moves have strong merit. 5.0

3. Josh Gayhart
Nice move selection - good originality and difficulty - links are definitly all of merit and good technical difficulty: 4.8

4. Aaron Orton
First link is definitly of merit. Very close to finishing higher. Exectution on the last move was not as good as it could have been and for a low technical move (relatively speaking) this was the main problem. Still an excellent combo 4.7

5. Chris May
Very good creative combo - the links are all of merit but due to the downtime nature of the second and third move - not as high as they would have been with sets added to each move. The execution is fairly good. Double atw is probably slightly easy for the first move of a sick 3 - really would only have merit if it was the middle move and was followed by move with a set. 4.4

6. Nick Bathgate
Good variety of moves and originality. I would say that for the difficulty of the moves this is an excellent combination of moves with perfect variety. Let down compared with other combos by the lack of difficulty and the exectution - especially of the last move. However I would say that for your ability this is an awesome combo so congratualtions on it! 3.9

7. Toby Suggate
Very good control and execution. Obviously less techincal merit than the above combos but a good combo for your level. 2.7

8. Anon
Good variety and originality. The execution of the first and second move did not look great but still a solid combo. 2.1

9. Ben Adler
Great work in entering in the competition. I'm sure given time you'll be a great footbagger! 0.6

[slapdash21]

i believe i am (???) sorry about the video sucking...and honestly the link sucked too...i made it like 3 weeks ago and i coulda done much better now. but it was Osis>far pickup (inside)>(inside) whirl

[Maraxus]

Sick 3:

1) Anssi Sundberg (Turku, Finland) Janiwalker > Tomahawk > Motion

Just mean fearless. Difficulty of links was there.


2) Phil Morisson (Christchurch, New Zealand) Flurry > Symposium whirl > Ripstein

Sick, well executed, and super clean. If the links/symposium whirl were changed slightly it would have been first.


3) Josh Gayhart (Butler, PA, USA) Frantic Legover > Phoenix > Spinning Butterfly Swirl

Whoa! Who are you! Heh, nice man.


4) Aaron Orton (Camp Pendleton, CA, USA) Pheonix > Ripped Warrior > Tomahawk

My tomahawk could have been ALOT better, but it still rates as the biggest combo I have ever hit.


5) Chris May (Medford, Oregon, USA) Double around the world > Blender > Paradox symposium whirl

Linking PS Whirl out of toe blender is impressive, looked good overall.


6) Nic Bathgate (Dunedin, New Zealand) Spinning paradox mirage > Atomsmasher > Fairy ducking osis

Good links, execution could have been better.


7) Anon (Ss drifter > Inside stall legover > Whirl)

Better vid quality would have been a plus, original and apparent differences for each move.


Toby Suggate (Dunedin, New Zealand) Pixie ss clipper > whirl > ducking clipper

Well done, ducking out of a whirl is fun and impressive.


9) Ben Adler (Legover > Around the world > Legover)

Difficulty was lacking but props on entering and pushing your game!

1,Jeremy Mirkin - Whirring swirl off a knee height set is unfathomable.
2,Honza Weber - Very origional, but pixie is a bit boring, would rank higher if it were Fairy or blurry.
3,David Clavens - Looked clean to me (maybe because I saw it in full quality ) a very hard and demanding move.
4,Kevin Regamey - This move is awesome, I just love it, I dunno how hard it is (I don't do flailing) but I couldent help watching it over and over, the execution was so beautiful, props.
5,Phil Morisson - Probably harder than the above, but not as origional and people like u and anssi make double downs look way too easy :p.
6,Tom Mosher - I love seeing newly invented stuff in these comps! Props Tom, that is one siiiiick 1.
7,Jesse Malouf - I ranked this very high because I know how hard stepping ducking is, if it was illusion instead of mirage it would be higher though.
8,Michal Biarda - This looks like a very intensive move that is very hard, big toe moves like that are insane.
9,Anssi Sundberg - The set was nice man, and this move is insaneo, but I don't think it was totally clean, atleats not as clean as Davids .
10,Joe Kulacz - This move is definatly on a different level to janiwalker, but not quite as hard as Nemesis I fear, props!
11,Nic Bathgate - Tripple dex, blurry, nice execution, a significant step up from fairy ss dlo.
12,Henry Griese - The flailing set looked quite hard for you but peeling a drifter off it looked pretty easy since your drifters are so efficient.
13,Asmus Helms - Nice and origional! Maybe not quite as hard as the above.
14,Toby Suggate - Props finally hitting this
15,Travis Montoya - Props hitting a 3 for competition after only a few months playing!

Sick3
Aaron Orton - NICE! Last link is kinda sloppy but after linking phonix to stepping ducking it is hard not to look past it I am very impressed!
Phil Morisson - This is a brilliant combo, flurry is siiick and that coupled with ripstien make this combo, if it were atomic symp whirl in the middle or something it would be first for sure
Josh Gayhart - Insane! This combo is origional and very cool! Props on the spinning butterfly swirl! I've never seen that before!
Anssi Sundberg - Man this combo is really nice, it looks very cool and I love the quick motion, but the rest of the top 4 are just so damn good too: s.
Nic Bathgate Solid 4>4>5, Both hard links, execution was shoddy on the last move though.
Chris May - Some very stylie links, I like it, toe blender is cool, but PS whirl is kinda unorigional and datw is a bit easy.
Toby Suggate - Nice combo A little easy for you though.
Peter Bowler - Sorry I forgot your name! A nice combo, origional
Ben Adler - Great job entering the competition! A solid tiltless combo!

[Shredster]

Not trying to brag about my current level of play, but I'd just like to say CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL sick 1 entries. Its crazy! If I had entered (hehe, thought I had a couple more days), I would NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE to break second to last. The moves are that good.

But anyways, I will try and get voting soon. I'll be at school tomorrow, maybe then. Ttyl

1. Jeremy Mirken - WTF cleanest whirring swirl ive ever seen
2. Honza - CLean, well executed, original
3. David Clavens - I think its clean and it didnt look too efforted
4. Phil MOrrison - Clean, good straight posture, big!
5. Henry Griese - wow that move was executed cleanly! drifter is very hard to hit out of that and i think whether you can do drifters easily of not matters much
6. Kevin Regamey - Huge!! 2nd person ive seen do that set
7. Anssi - hmm it seemed like a barraging barfly kick to me, the execution wasnt great. Reguardless, nice barraging set!
8. Joe - nice set but the mirage wasnt perfect
9. michael - woah i really like your frqantic set and illuison out of it is huge!
10. Jesse - nice stepping ducking set and well executed. Too bad this competition is very high level now!
11. Nic - Very well executed. However because you are good at dlo anyways... then i think this move was a bit easy for you. Blurry is a bit boring. Reguardless, props!
12. Toby - nice execution.
13. Mosher - sorry to say but i really cannot even see this properly nor what you are doing. Major props for you hitting this trick but the quality of the video made it very hard for me to check its cleanliness.
14. Asmus - props!
15. Travis - muted is stylie!

[BalinorNZ]

11. Nic - Very well executed. However because you are good at dlo anyways... then i think this move was a bit easy for you. Blurry is a bit boring. Reguardless, props!

I agree totally, that move is pretty easy for me and blurry is very common, I had something much cooler and more origional lined up, but alas, Uni does'nt let me play footbag anymore .

15. Nic- obviously stepping and DLO's are easy for you. So you shouldnt get any credit for the trick you hit.

[bigdirtyfoot]

Thought you'd like to see this again:

So your saying the judges would do this?

"hmm...ive seen Vasek hit this combo so many times....he hit this one in worlds 2003 as well. Its technically better than some of the other combo's but because ive seen him hit this before then ill let someone else take 1st spot because ive never seen it and its pretty good."

If vasek happens to hit these tricks all the time and he wins, then so be it. He deserves to win if he beats the others in terms of creativity, difficulty, and execution, not Past

I thought y'all wanted to judge based on the tricks, not the player's level? I think that some consensus should be arrived at for this.

[BalinorNZ]

Henry, basing how you vote of somebody elses votes to make a point is silly and immature. Everyone is allowed to vote as they see fit and with their own voting agenda. I could vote based on shorts color if I wanted, that is up to me.

I vote entrys partially on weather look like they are easy for the person/use easy concepts for the person, to challenge them to try something new or something they find hard (which would ofcourse will help their game), I believe these are good motives, and I do it within reason (I won't vote honza below toby simply because toby uses drifter which is hard for him and honza uses pixie which is easy for him because the fact remains that Honza's move is much harder.)

And FYI, that is my bad blurry set .

[HG]

FYI that is my bad drifter and bad symp atomic leg. Hmm... next month i will enter a trick that i didnt hit and since its too hard for me to hit i will get 1st place.

*Tiptoes in*

I thought Jeremy's Whirring Swirl was ridiculously awesome.

*Tiptoes out*

[SandWraith]

Sick 1:
1. Phil Morisson (Christchurch, New Zealand) Alpine Scorpions tail
What can I say? I'm a sucker for scorpion's tail.
2. Jeremy Mirkin (Tucson, Arizona, USA) Whirring Swirl
That's the most beautiful whirr I've ever seen, and the swirl was just as crisp.
3. Honza Weber (Prague, Czech Republic) Pixie Torquescrew
Freakin' amazing, but so is Honza.
