That was pretty cool.

Liked the breakdancing and the synchronous footbag. Your doubles routine was well coordinated.

good work, but next time try to do more add.2, because you've made a lot of drops and it will be better if you get more drops and longer runs.

Especially props because both of you do something in Estonia, and promote Footbag as you can and wherever you could !

Great job guys. I really enjoyed the variety of skills; juggling, footbag, and dancing. I hope you guys keep practicing all three skills.

Suggestions:

More 2 add moves. Do a bunch of legovers and mirages and pickups and illusions. It will make your strings a lot longer and give you less drops. They may be easy to you but they allow people to see clearly what is going on and they will be amazed. I played with Paul Agostinelli last night at a college in Rochester, New York. Paul performed a long string of 2 add moves and this group of people watching were very impressed and cheered him on.

As for dancing, the guy on his feet was really smooth and kept a nice flow throughout the dance portion of the show. Add some pop and lock to that and coordinate your movements with the beat for more affect.

The guy on the ground did some great moves as well. I would say use dance moves to go from standing up to spinning on the ground and back up on your feet again. If you do a backspin and end up stopping on your back, pop up to your feet, or use rolls, spins, and various poses to get back up on your feet.

I used to breakdance, literally 20 years ago, and the hardest thing for me was changing from one dance step to another, or going from my feet to the ground and back.

Peace.

okeee.. watched it again.

i found the breakdancing the best performance out of all. footbagging is, of course a bit harder to show cause people hardly know it. some may know hacky sack, so this is where to start and collect their attention. walk in with basic kicking including knee and some special stalls on head, knee, sole etc. then go ahead to basic freestyling, try using a bag that is large and good visible, with strong colors. best advice i can give is stick to the 2adds, they are impressive enough and you dont drop, which looks confident and effortless. you can do a routine where moves fit to music, so 30 seconds you and 30 seconds your friend e.g.. whoever is performing should be standing at the very front in the middle so its easier for people to know who to watch. then you can introduce team freestyle, that was good like you did, but try to get a bit more syncron and again, stick to easy tricks. these are my tips, i know you are 100% more errected when standing in front of a crowd, cause so was i at my school performance.
