He was going to Israel. He's the one who hits Smear.

And Benny... what's with the comb-over?

That smear was sick I've seen quite a bit of freestyle soccer and I've never seen that before.

I saw that smear and I was like WTF these guys are learning sets now???

What I want to know is, what are these freestyle football guys doing that footbaggers aren't that's getting them TV air time, Red Bull sponorships, televised competitions and the like. In my humble and probably slightly biased opinion, freestyle footbag looks way cooler than this stuff. Where's the money at??? Where are all the chicks!??!

EDIT: mad props to Benny for doing both sports.

They are playing with a soccer ball, which everyone in the world knows and has played with, and which is 100X more visable than a footbag. Soccer is the biggest sport in the world. Of course this type of freestyle is not as cool as footbag (my opinion), but everyone can relate to a soccer ball and to some extent or another play with one. Thus, they get the money, air time and the chicks.

Big Props to Benny Kellman for being in on this. I think this is only the beginning for him.

I was at that show and was really cool. I got some footage of it i might make a vid but Redbull will prolly make a better one. Benny got me into the VIP section and i got free drinks the whole night. The judging was bs benny got an unfair rap but i let him tell if he wants.
