Globalfootbag - all great videos in one place

Post by Faco »

Hello, fellow bag warriors 8)
https://www.youtube.com/user/Globalfootbag

I would just like to say thank you, the community, for keep doing this shit.
Thank you for all the shred, sick tricks, epic names (clipper, mirage, butterfly, whirl, torque, the list goes on and on), quality bags, unforgettable tournaments and people you meet.
Thank you for keeping alive our factories (planetfootbag, worldfootbag...) as well as keeping online fortress (modified, footbag.org...) strong.

And thank you for making great videos.
When I started kicking in 2002, digital technology was just starting to bloom. Most people filmed footbag on tape and then somehow made it digital. It was a chore. Besides, YouTube didn't even exist, so sharing videos was difficult (also dial-up). It was also the time when the Czech scene blew up and a lot of good videos were made. Not good in a 100fps 720p kind of way, but you see where I'm gettin'.
It was not that difficult to try and collect videos, because there weren't that many. I am sharing with you all of my collection, the link is above. Many great footbag pages changed or even died (monsterhack, y u do this??), so some of these videos are now hard to get. Globalfootbag was my project that ended before it really took off, but I still have all the videos. There are regular requests for old videos on modified, so I believe that a quality-controlled YouTube collection should be created.

I just started uploading the rest of the videos and will try to do so every day. I believe the collection is legit up untill 07, when I lost interest in collecting them.
Maybe later we can fill the gap, with you guys suggesting good videos from 2007 till today.
Also, many videos were taken from pages, that are still active. For example from http://www.footbag.org, and others. If anyone feels that any particular video shouldn't be reuploaded, I will remove it.

So yeah...have fun watching :D Subscribe if you like. Just keep playing hard (and resting well), footbag is godlike :footbag:

note
I started with the tournaments, but there is another DVD full of non-tournament footage waiting :P

It's awesome that you're doing this Ales! I subscribed and hope to see many old classics uploaded. I hope you have all the Monsterhack videos, especially the Lon Smith special. That's probably the video I've watched the most (after Vasek's legendary videos) but I haven't seen it in years. Thanks again.

Many good videos already up!
There is also some footage from Todexon 2004 which I filmed myself and was never published before.

And I do have that Lon Smith Special, that was a cool one. It will be uploaded with the rest of the non-tournament footage later.

Thank you for your support :D

Hm, seems like I don't. If someone can find it, I will add it.



So I've just finished with the 06 uploads. The last couple WFC06 are my own, probably not seen by some. Be sure to czech them out.

I would like to upload the 07 series, but I am missing almost every video from Euros. I don't really want to download from other YouTube channels and reupload on mine, because that is losing some quality. If anyone has some good Euro 07 competition footage, please upload it to https://www.wetransfer.com/ and send me a download link to [email protected]
Thank you!

Ok, found my own EFC07 stuff, got it covered :D

This is awesome. Thanks so much for putting in the time to do this.

Just want to add that Erik Chan has a similar channel with so many great videos. Serious nostalgia the first time I saw this: https://www.youtube.com/user/nonhackrifice

I've looked in both global footbag and Eric's videos and couldn't find the vid I want. Does anyone still have the CSS4 video to the song "Russian Lulaby"?
