Haven't played since my last post. Started getting nerve pain down my leg, like sciatica (though my physiotherapist nor back specialist referred to is as such).
Definitely possible. I remember playing in skate shoes for a year before I found freestyle footbag, and I recall having the most basic stalls (toe and outside?) and fliers before then.Muffinman wrote: 03 Aug 2020 17:50 I remember getting Lavers shortly after seeing She's All That, but I remember playing in skate shoes for a long time before then, so that also lines up... Maybe I was just doing super basics like stalls and fliers for a couple years before I learned tricks?
Didn't you judge one of the events? Would love to hear your perspective on that experience!Muffinman wrote: 03 Aug 2020 17:50 Watching Worlds was a blast. Congrats to all of you who were involved/participated!
Yeah, I judged Sick 3 for Open, Intermediate, and Women's.C-Fan wrote: 04 Aug 2020 11:18 Didn't you judge one of the events? Would love to hear your perspective on that experience!
I wasn't in the BAP meeting so I have no insight on their discussion. If I had to guess/critique, I'd point to various concepts that Worek hasn't mastered yet: spinning, double downs, whirls, torques. He's awesome at the concepts he does use (pixies, ducking, atomic, dlos and eggs, etc.) but it is a bit limited in scope. I also wouldn't be surprised if they expect he can develop a more varied trick vocabulary, and hope that the promise of BAP will motivate him to work on it in the coming years.Muffinman wrote: 12 Aug 2020 07:06 I was incredibly disappointed and floored that Jakub Worek didn't make BAP. but I feel that Jakub is one of the best players in the world easily right now. I wonder what the deciding factors were for the induction. Not enough clipper like Olaf?
