incredible.
big footbags are so much better for visual performance.

Vasek is very one sided in this video.
That's not a criticism; just an observation. I respect his greatness.

I like how freestyle soccer seems to have an equal emphasis on theatrics, floor juggling and technicality, while footbag focuses almost entirely on technicality.
Being from the footbag crowd I fondly snicker to the "ball in the t-shirt" trick while waiting for the next Vasek clip, but for the average viewer I can see how that would be more impressive and comprehensible than a constant stream of dexes and combos, crazy as they may be.
I wonder if there could be a cross-breed sport, with a ball almost as bouncy as a soccer ball, only allot smaller, allowing for all the bounce tricks while making complex dex tricks possible? It would still be a bitch to stall, though.

It was fun to see Vasek do that eggbeater with the football too. Otherwise, entertaining video.

If I was a freestyle football player and I saw this video I would be like "wtf am I doing with this big dumbass bouncy ball!?" and take up footbag.
Maybe it's the technical nerd in me but footbag is just so fucking bad ass.
