All this talk of being unique in the Suderman and Ianek videos got me thinking. there has to be more out there besides them doing all these orginal links.

The ones I can think of as having unique style and links are:

Suderman
Ianek
Jorden

Of course there are more but i'll leave that up to you guys to discuss.

Schneider. Jorden. Cross. Suderman. Mosher. Agostinelli. Bowler. Eoghan.

in no particular order. Oh and I'm not for this topic being all that different from style. But whatever. I shall post because I can. And I'm bored.

no offense, but he doesnt touch a hair on the originality pole compared to anyone else mentioned in this thread.

Jakob Wagner throws down some pretty original stuff.. but I still think Jorden takes the cake. How many tricks has he invented anyway??

Ianeks interpretation is super sweet.

Laroche has some stuff too.

But yeah: Outsider, Paul Agostinelli, Ianek.

Outsider · Post by **Outsider** » 19 Feb 2008 08:15

I just said about the same thing in that other similar topic, but I thought it was worth repeating. I'm not here to declare "favorites" or "bests", or what I think really constitutes originality. There are a fair number of players who I respect to a greater or lesser degree for their original contributions to freestyle. I don't want to name every name on my own list and thus insult any who aren't on it. I could put my list in a particular order, too, but again, I don't want to offend with what is bound to be a highly subjective rank. I just wanted to name a couple of people who I would include somewhere on my current list of noteworthy cool and original styles, a couple of names that I felt were being unfairly forgotten here:

Byrin Wylie

Of all the people I kicked with and watched at Worlds this year, I thought his style was about the coolest I'd seen lately. Back-to-back gyro swirls and gyro reverse swirls and stuff like that... I can't really remember ever having seen anyone else do combos like that, and I thought they looked REALLY cool.

and... I should really know a little better, 'cause I do spend way to much time here on this forum, but... who's the Polish player who does all the Rooted sets? Is that Cod? 'Cause I think that style of play is pretty unique, creative and impressive. I think he could do much more with it, but that is almost always the case with a style that is mostly only being developed by just one individual. Its hard work, and probably nearly impossible, to do all that work by yourself. Plus, that sort of stuff is, in some ways, probably harder than it looks, so its always easy for an observer to say "why don't you do this and this too?"

Thats not all I have to say, but its all I'm going to say.

Olav · Post by **Olav** » 19 Feb 2008 08:35

Yes, the player with Rooted sets (and lots of Toes in general) is Cod, good call. I totally forgot about him... he was too close to see, I guess. Being subjective, strong 6 points.

Post by **Zac Miley** » 19 Feb 2008 11:55

Weird topic. Fairly similar to style, I guess.

Jorden is up there for me... uhh... Johnny of course, although he really isn't that original, anddd...

hm.

Vasek is pretty original with his reverse swifters and gyro whirls and crazy whirrs, bs clownfaces and stuff.

Jordan, because he can do anything.

Ners · Post by **Ners** » 19 Feb 2008 15:43

Did you know, that his name is actually Jorden?

I also think that he is the undisputed king of originality, creativity and eliminating weak sides of one's game.

I agree with a lot of people and say that Jordan, Suderman, Ianek are some of favorites. Ianek has really inspired me, as well as Johnny. But yeah, i think it's hilarious that people would mention me. Right now I'm nothing compared to these players.
