Footbag will always be more technical but freestyle football is a lot easier to digest for an observer.

Sadly, footbag is a niche niche sport. No, that isn't a typo.

Awesome tech Pavel!

Awesome show Pavel, I think you easily outperformed them

I dunno if footbag is doomed to be a niche sport, but it definitely can't sell itself as a "young cool sport" like football freestyle can. Lots of mainstream, recognized sports can't, so it's not the only avenue to get out of niche.

Good show, footbag wins sorely on the fact that we set a bar of play that doesn't commend players for bailing.

Granted I will admit I can not kick a soccer ball more than a few times, I just see their kicks as bails.

But side note very good show and minus to the guy that was trying to have action shots by tilting the camera side ways.

Nice show indeed!

I think you showed exactly the kind of trickselection the crowd wants. Eggbeaters, DATW and juggling of course.

Good show guys. Well presented, little drops.
Props

I wonder if hacky would be easier to digest if we did kicks between tricks instead of trick into trick into trick. It stands to reason that they must start to take ripwalks and far legovers for granted. And then you see the football player hit one legover between kicks and it's like whoa...
