off the hook. nice editing, good music choices. I liked the beck song.

great style, and some fun, difficult stuff! I liked passing gumble and midstring muted spinning flapper.

the 5 links were cool too.

nice to see some classic RFA spots.
BRICK!

Sweet vid! I haven't seen much footage of Chris before, and I'm really diggin' his style.

When I get home I'm going to watch it with the sound on for I can see what Matt is talking about.

Can't wait.

It doesn't take much to make Chris look good, but the editing and backgrounds still jumped out at me. It's a rare treat to see a player with excellent style in a video which is well-edited and creative. Thank you very much Nels, this is the best vid I've seen in a while.

Paul,

Excellent video production. Even though I have spent countless hours shredding along side Chris Dean, there were still so many parts of this video that surprised me.

Thank you for putting this out there Paul. If you want me to upload this to the RFA video collection on footbag.org let me know.

I have a hard time finding what I like about some people's style or game in general. Chris is one of them :lol: . I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that some people clearly "shred" when they play. Some people "play" footbag. Chris definitely plays footbag. Not to say he can't shred, too. But what I like about him is that he plays. Nothing seems forced, ya know?

big thanks to Paul.

Wow, that part (Edit: parts) where Dean throws in the last-ditch osis and freezes it into a zoom to finish the run made me go "WHAT?!!" Why haven't you been making these all along, I probably wouldn't have been such a lonely and violent drunk had I had these to come home to at night. Do one for every player. Ooh ooh, do Matt Cross next!

wow, what a treat. Thank for the video, gents! It's a rare occasion that we see any christine footage, but a whole solo video that is well edited is even more rare and exciting. i enjoy chris's shuffle style, but he sure shows that he's got alot of components to his game. He really does look like he's playing, like he's having fun. One of the games many unsung heros. look forward to kicking with you again next time i see you chris!

I think the video should have been cut into two at 5 minute mark.
But thats probably just me!

Chris definitely have a new fan of his game in me!
The editing was also really good. Looking forward to your next videos!

thank you so much everyone for watching and commenting (ive been internet incognito for the last few days)

ive definitely had the most productive few weeks ever lately, rest assured the videos will keep rolling out (but at a slower rate, the more techniques i learn, the longer each edit takes) i think i may do the worlds editing comp this year.

again, thanks everyone, i wouldnt make these vids if it wasnt for the great community to watch them.
