I will download it in 5 days when I have some bandwidth again. Somehow this house hold has used like 50gb this month with 5 days to go... Damn nerds

I think it's great that you two are so enthusiastic about footbag!

BUT I think the video was a bit long considering the subject matter. I got kind of bored watching it, because it was a lot of the same stuff in general...Perhaps you could make yourself choose the BEST highlights, and make a shorter, and also more exciting video.

Just an idea.

Flavio looks alot like Johny Murphy :) The style and the hair etc :)

I didn't know anything about footbaggers in sweden so I must say I was impressed. Good job both playing and editing the video.

Why don't you come over to Finnish Foobag Open or just anytime? I know I would be happy to shred with you guys. Maybe we could do like scandinavian tournament :) With players from sweden, finland and estonia? :)

Am downloading now...
Done in 12mins
Will reply then...

Hey guys, props on a sweet first vid!
Nice ripwalks Flavio, your style reminds me of Dylan Fry
Nils, your doing well. It would be good to see something else from your flip clipper though, maybe pdx mirage or far legover.
Hey Nick, your game is on it's way. More flip clipper! Great swirl aswell. I thought your bag was gonna go off the edge of that balcony

Great shred spots! The scenery was awesome.

Just some constructive criticism. PLEASE CUT BACK ON THE TOE PICKUPS! Sorry, but they were just making me cringe

Thanks for the vid!

it's a little misstake: we are from switzerland. we were in sweden, ska°one, near Malmö in our holidays. nils has lots of relatives there. i think it's one of the first shreds in sweden. that's the reason why we called it; sweden shred.

He he he...nice shred guys.

I often go for solo shred sessions when I stay at my girlfriend in Malmø - Sweden. Once I saw two guys from hacking it up in a park and I have heard rumers that some youngsters play at the high school.

Danish Footbag Club are planning at footbag promotion tour in Malmø soon. We intend to boost the interest and show the Swedes that they can take it beyond hacky sack.

Send me a PM if you comes near Malmø or Copenhagen in the future.

Hi Flavio,

I really liked the video!

And you got very good since I saw you playing the last time (Footjam?). Anyway the best part was "At the same time in Italy" the idea of mixing both holiday videos together was great

that's a good idea! I explained one guy the whole story about footbag (adds, freestyle, net ....) He lives near Höör, it's a cousin of nils.

yes I will! de va jeter bra° i sverige! (no idea how to write!

)
by the way, copenhagen has a very nice airport (kastrup)

see you soon!!

@sNale: yes it was really cool to mix them up. I didn't know that Nick took his own cam to Italy. It's a very good shred. I haven't seen him playing like that. He just started playing.

This film was a great view into your life and your world.

It had alot of character and it had lots of interesting parts.

Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 15 Aug 2005 04:59

yeah sweet video. The scenery was awesome. Looked very cool. I liked the Italy section at the end was cool too (although stall the bag on your left foot sometimes please!).

Good shred footage too - nice to see a focus on long runs rather than big moves and I think great style.

Overall a very cool video that you should be proud of. Thanks a lot for taking the time to make it

footjam_heger · Post by **footjam_heger** » 15 Aug 2005 06:43

Thank you very much! It's fun to make footage for me. So it was a pleasure for me to make this video.

Yes, lots of people said that he should try playing with left too... Nick doesn't listen to my advices!

Maybe i must be more strictly. But he just started playing, so i think he wants to have fun. And it makes more fun to play with the strong side first.
