I have not posted a video in the videos thread in quite some time, and instead of just giving this one out to people I talk to regularly, I think its good enough to post.

I went to the local community college and filmed and put this together. I actually tried to edit it this time, hopefully my efforts add to the video. Enjoy.

Super sick video! That last move looked way easier then it should have.

I liked alot of the 2 move combos you were throwing in the beginning of your strings, those were awesome. Those furies looked fantastic, and those nukes look smoother then warm butter.

Keep shredding!

Omfg Cleaver, your a flippin machine!

Damn I LOVE your style, I think it is the style I most want to capture in my own game out of any I have seen.

My gosh, you hit so many awesome combos, damn, there was one massive string in there that was just stylish link after stylish link, stepping pickup > symp whirl? Nice origional stuff

.

Very nice 69! (both sides I think I saw it?) If I didn't have to leave for uni 10 mins ago I would be watching this again right now!

And OMG! Whirlygig swirl? Are you the first to hit that?

Props dude. Keep up the wild shred.

Also, if you have anything from there that you might want to be in sick1/sick3 comp (entrys close in a few days) then u know who to PM!

Thanks for doing everyone a favor and filming your top level shred. Your consistency and style are VERY inspirational. Never stop shredding!

woooooooah, you have so many 5adds dialed. The variety of your strings also looks really good. There was a nice blend of ducking, spinning, shuffle and downtime components. It just Adds some more flavor to an already tasty sandwich.

Nice nice nice daaave ! Editing is comin along too, just gotta find that beautiful medium where if you take away something or add something to the vid it'd ruin the flow, I sure as hell haven't found that yet. Of course, your shred was top notch, i like your ducking string , I believe it was the longest string in the vid. Lotta 5's dialed like woah, add in some more styley 5's or 4's, hell, 3's.

damn dude, you are f---ing good.

You're really good at footbag. I'm sorry to say I didn't enjoy the editing.

I know that's not what you want to hear. And believe me It's not what I want to say. I did like the beginning with the flashing between the run and you walking in to the court. That was really awesome. .... but, fuck it, keep working at it and youll get as good at editing as you are at footbag and then ull be unstoppable, cuz thats how good at footbag you are.

Geez...whirlygig swirl. It did look way too easy! It was the single move at the end and then it cut out and I was, like, "It's gotta be more than just whirlygig" (which is silly in itself, because whirlygig is pretty huge...) I was, like, "No way...whirlygig swirl??" And had to slowmo to be sure...geez Dave. I agree -- the dialed 5s are disgusting, but for some constructive criticism I would love to see more of a mix than the typical filler moves, you know? Like blur, and ducking clipper, and dimwalk...do you know what I mean? Like, I mean your game is huge, and you're definately one of the best in the entire world!!!!!!! But I just feel that if you pushed the creativity, you could be THE best. The peeking osis was SWEET, and I like when you throw in 6s...6s deserve to look styley and you make them that way. I agree on the editing comments too -- your last video was AWESOME, experiment the heck out of your software and then find a comfortable medium

Subtlety is styley.

Thank you david. More inspiration for all of us.

You are absolutely awesome

BalinorNZ · Post by **BalinorNZ** » 02 Oct 2005 18:00

I disagree with the other comments about editing. I REALLY liked your editing!
What software do you use? I really would like to know how to make that lens flare that leads into the next scene like that, I thought it was WICKED! The flashing and leadup was really cool too!
I am at uni now so I can't watch it again and tell you some more editing techniques that I liked, but I remember liking it in general this morning

PROPS!

Haha. I thought your second song on that video was that Britney Spears song, but then as I doubted that you listen to that stuff, I realized it was just Linkin Park. Anyways, sweet video. With your progress, I wouldn't be surprised that you will be competing against Vasek someday.

footjoe · Post by **footjoe** » 03 Oct 2005 14:14

thats is if Vasek will even still be playing or competing
