hmmm I've seen some Brad Kaplan, Sunil and Lon footage where they had blackish beards.

What site did you see the guy with the black beard from?

ptaku · Post by **ptaku** » 14 Jul 2004 10:35

Maybe you're talking about Sebastian Duchesne?
Yeah. Lon Smith has black beard on movies from Todexon#5 too, and Sunil ...

I don't know if it's possible to make top100 players list, top10 or top 0 yes, but top100 would be very hard. Why? Because there is a couple top players, and then is many, many, many players on similar level.
And the 2nd thimg is that we don't know who play how in this moment. Maybe after worlds it will be easier to make some top players list - but not everybody will be on worlds. I think that here in Europe are many players which are playing on top level and aren't able to come to Montreal.

Greats.

Also cause as far as we know there could be a guy out there that has not idea about the online scene and maybe just as good as Vasek or better.

Yeah. Maybe. This year on Polish Champs was one guy. Anybody had knew him. He is playing for 2 years. He bust some long strings with 4's, 3's, and 5's. He's able to hit Stepping Ducking Paradox Whirl, Symp Eggbeater, and was very clos to hit PS Eggbeater, Superfly.
But he doesn't compete, because after first day of playing he had pain in his legs.
And anybody had knew him....

I just tried to write a top 100 and got to 41 and then remembered Flash and gave up. Top tens would be cool though: Here's mine...

1. Vasek Klouda
2. Ryan Mulroney
3. Peter Irish
4. Lon Smith
5. Allan Haggett
6. Jan Weber
7. Ales Zelinka
8. Gordon Bevier
9. Rick Moran
10. Jim Penske

That's top ten best players (not neccessarily favourite players...)

In my opinion, while Ales is still fantabulously amazing, Vasek and Honza are both ahead of them. I mean, even if Honza isn't ahead of Ales, he still definetely deserves to be on the top 10.
And what about all those booming Finnish players? I've heard some of them are incredible.

Oh, and you forgot Kyle Zender at the top of that list

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 14 Jul 2004 20:13

um... Jan "Honza" Weber - no. 6.

Yeah the fins are good, but I haven't seen enough footage of any of them to put them on my top 10.

brian relly · Post by **brian relly** » 14 Jul 2004 20:27

His name is Jan? (!)

ShredStylez · Post by **ShredStylez** » 15 Jul 2004 06:04

That's an interesting list jeremy.

King Monkey · Post by **King Monkey** » 15 Jul 2004 18:45

its spelt 'Jan' but pronounced 'Yahn'

yeh top 100 is too hard, there probably isnt 100 players worthy of being in a top 100 list.. oh well actually there could be i spose.. hmm.. so hard to tell as someone else mentioned.. maybe a top 50?

How would it be judged though? Routines? Not likely... many people who can put together a great routine get schooled at shred by a lot of people who don't put together a good routine. Shred30 is based on adds largely, and adds don't really equal difficulty. It's completely subjective..

ashleyd · Post by **ashleyd** » 15 Jul 2004 20:22

i would have somewhat of the same list with Chad D. mixed somewhere in there

david · Post by **david** » 15 Jul 2004 20:25

you forgot ahren. he is defiantly one of the best.

Stoke · Post by **Stoke** » 15 Jul 2004 21:33

Yea Chad and Ahren are both awesome.. See- it's hard to even make a top 10 list. Btw, I don't see much footage of Gordon Bevier, so I wouldn't recognize him if I did see him.. Ricky Moran has a lot of style and that goes a long way. I LOVE to watch him shred- but to place him above people like Penske, Rippin, Chad, Sunil, and Ahren doesn't seem right..
