Has (insert viable, difficult trick name here) been hit? PG1

That can't be allowed to fly anymore in the footbag community. I definently trust Honza, but if someone in the figure skating community said "I saw so-and-so hit a quintuple lutz" or some other rediculous thing which has never been hit, people would laugh at them. I know that the camera is not always rolling, but for certain things, the possiblity of the's is to great for someones word. Also there have been various claims of 20+ fearless. Why have I never seen a video where someone hits over 14-15? I guess I'm just a pessimist.

Just because it's Vasek doesn't mean it's clean. He's incredibly talented, obviously yes...that doesn't grant him immunity from missing dexes. The nemesis' I saw him hitting in videos years back were sometimes clean and sometimes not. I may even go so far as to say they "were usually not clean".

In my opinion, a quad > quad is the kind of thing you need to get on camera to be able to claim.

On second thought, after discussing the topic with Sam P, who cares. *shrug*

1) There is footage of at least 20 unique fearless on video.

2) It was probably the (nem x 2). Comming from someone who has had good attempts, its almost impossible to clean it.

3) I beleive Honza and good players. I don't find any reason to lie about shit.

Serge from France has been trying this for quite some time now. I don't think that he's hit anything out of it be from what I saw I think the set is possible.

I actually tried the non symposium version. I already hit the set but never hit anything out of it.. The symp version is definitely possible..

I take it that you don't mean crispy, I'll give the ducking ones a go soon.

miraging pickup is normally referred to as "reverse egg" in English, but in Japan they call it "hanabi" which means fireworks (literally "fireflower").

Back in 2001 I saw Daryl Genz hit blurry hanabi, and I've hit it pdx. Oh, I also think willie digges hit pixie hanabi in sick1 back at Rochester NYJ.

He just answered your question. If he didn't, you'd still be wondering.

It doesn't matter.

Frantic ducking anything?
