Remember that little guy from worlds with the shuffle and flurries?

Here are some new stuff from him:

It has killer music and killer shred.

WATCH IT!

Crazy! He could use some form improvment to maximize his potential, but other than that he is really good. W00T!

awesome double dexes and atomic set looks really efficient

One day i hope to be as good as you and I'm 21!!

Holy crap.

He's good.

I think he could benefit from putting more concepts into his strings, it seemed like it was mostly atomics, double downs, and stepping.

However, I liked his fairies a lot.

Me too.

Matte, this is a huge step up from anything of yours I've seen.

You have a very exciting style!

Keep working the repetitions to get the double downs cleaner. Just takes time. I know you will though.

Careful not to set your atomics from too far under you. A little bit is ok.

Some tricks looked toooo easy.

This video just gave me this image of the future where every little 14 year old is hitting these tricks and it is the standard for footbag. I can't even imagine what comes next... Wow!

Thanks for sharing!

Dude all I have to say is awesome! That kids is so freaking good I can't wait to see the next generation of footbag players hit. I'm watching this video again b/c I need to learn off this kid LOL. If anyone knows him give him all kinds of props for me!

I really enjoyed watching this.

Most of the stuff looks really easy, it's just ridiculous.

On something to improve I noticed stepping duckings seemed to lack stepping. I don't want to be a hater, just letting you know.

Very inspiring and thanks for sharing!
