waiting for the sun... Footbag in Guadeloupa

Fkystyl · Post by **Fkystyl** » 14 Mar 2006 13:39

One week ago i watched this video that i did in 2004, I spent the new year eve over here. i like to watch sunny videos in winter : footabg, surf, roller, sk8 etc... maybe other people also do, so i put it online
there is no big shred in this video but a lot of clippers and simple dex, so do not even download it if you only like big shred.
On it you will see so nice lands, beaches, water falls, and strange animals.
Paris is still rather cold these days and i pray everyday for the out-shreding days.
So my brothers! let's enjoy these coming sunny days, every single day, before we say again (like Jim) : another summer's gone...

that was amazing....such smooth shred and great style!
I loved the music and all the scenery and everything...all the different animals were great! Although it was pretty basic shred, that was one of the most entertaining videos ive seen in a while.

Thanks alot for that video!!

Thanks Franck- that was like a movie!

Made we wondering if my way of life is the right one or if I should try to travel more and should neglect other things instead of.

Yeah nice video great nature.

Dam, that looked super sweet Frank.

I really liked the music and editing which made this video a cool document of atmosphere, summer feeling and footbag. You managed to create great dynamics with the moving shots, close ups and connection to the music. The beautiful pictures of landscapes & animals made this a very special production indeed.

I defiantly could imagine a paradise tournament taking place over there in the future if we found the right sponsor.

Next time you go travelling, especially if you go to Guadeloupe again, please give a shout and I’ll join you!

Thanks for brining sunshine to all of us!

Nice video Frank
I can't help thinking about myself playing in Gabon while watching this video
But I would trade all that sun for a chance to play with other players anytime

i agree with everyone but i would really like to give you props for your style. you have an interesting style that looks like you kept your oldschool circle kicking roots and intregrated them with freestyle i like the way it looks and for some reason thats the best description i could think of.

Absolutely beautiful. My favorite part was when you were shredding in the rocks!

Did you drop your bag in the water in that scene?
Amazing video! There has only been one outdoor shred day this year...and its driving me crazy!!

yes the bag droped into the water in this scene, i thought it was funny to let it in the editing. It was my cusion's bag, i had no bag with me this day so i was trying to be carefull with his bag and then "plouuf" in the water

there was a lot of water, going very speed so i had to catch it quickly otherwise it would have gone into the ocean
it is getting warmer these last days in Paris, yesterday was the first day of the year when i could take my bicycle without my gloves... such a better feeling of course
tanks again for all your comments

Hey Franck,

I just got there. I loved this vids. The landscapes were just amazing. I really like footbag vids with a nice landscape in background, this makes me want to footbag and travel more, rather a vid that is only in a gym with monotone colours, but it cannot be summer everywhere. Props. See you maybe tonight.
