hey!
everything´s just fine with the music, my critics only represent my point of view! you´re 100% right if you say: "i like it!" i think you shouldn´t try to please everybody, just please yourself! with this video you should really have pleased yourself;D
i´m the guy who´s always holding his camera above his head;P when you filmed vasek´s shred i´ve been on the opposite site, you´ll able to see me while vasek´s shreddin;P

The shred was top notch and I was realy imprerssed with everything except all those clippers that ilja and renato were throwing.
Arrrrgggghh!

Stop the stupid add talk and watch these two players in action! Don't you realize that Ilja and Renato can do almost anything they want with a bag? No stupid rules apply here in Europe dude and it breaks my heart that two of our most stylish players are being downgraded by you.

I think this is an American problem and you guys are really stocked with it.

Get real and play some hardcore and stylish footbag instead.

Wow mentor you realy put me in my place....
As soon as I see Alesh, Vasek and Yves throwing lame-ass clippers I'll shut up but I have a feeling they are too harcore and stylish for that.

Perhaps this arguement be better put in a new thread, this is an extremely nice video that I have watched ALOT and enjoy very much.

okay, i don't know if i saw that right (didn't rewind to look) -- double swirl to flurry? What the hell, hitting a barraging set out of a double swirl. that's insane...Vasek's still getting better. good to see!

Matthias, I haven't seen you kick since last summer. It's fun to see how much better you've gotten.

Props to all in the vid. it was all mad.

Loved the video, Juha. Thanks. I wish I could be in on the Euro scene.

I didn't mind the music much. Techno isn't really my thing, but I can listen to anything.

Might I ask where one can acquire those matts everyone was shredding on?

Actually I think it's double swirl>symposium flurry

I don't think Vasek hits a single normal flurry in the whole vid - they are all symposium...

Yeah, that was so sick!! (It was so long, too! I can't even remember most of it...)

The best was by far the Vasek footage. Love the hair and the shirt!! The run with the swirls and reverse swirling same pickup beesauce was rad! Superduperfly > symp flurry!!!! superfly > superfly > ps whirl > ps whirl > whirlwind > whirlwind rake > dolomite (or something?)
His ripstein looks sooo easy now....it's like a bail.......

And, yeah, Matthias was definately one of the most fun to watch. So smooth, so bothsided.....

And Ales.............What was it? Dolomite > superfly > shaft...or something. I always mix up the names for the toe-set symp double downs.

Hi Nate

Wow you really put me back in my place…

I guess you should have been here at the Euros so you could have seen all the lame-ass clippers thrown in by the European top players.

those clippers weren't lame-assed - they were clean and stylish.
Bad-ass clippers!

This video is soo awesome. Vasek is incredibly inspiring.

Hi Bjoern

those clippers weren't lame-assed - they were clean and stylish.
Bad-ass clippers!

Exactly! I couldn't agree more with you!

hmmmmm,I guess I was cranky yesterday or something, maybe worlds fever. ilja and Ranato are awsome, I guess its just style preference.

some much insanity on this video!! Euros wil definatly be a goal to hit up next year.

I asked Ilja about why he didn't get rid of those clippers and go guiltless all the time, and he said:
"mhh.. yeah.. no.. I know. I just like that trick so much!"

That video was awesome!!!!!

I'm going outside to bag a little now!

Air · Post by **Air** » 28 Jul 2004 11:45

Great video! Vasek tried something that looked like Fairy Swirling Gyro Flurry... too sick.

King Monkey · Post by **King Monkey** » 29 Jul 2004 05:36

i think hes alot closer to that move than the video shows... and even that isnt that far off
there are other 5s he is working on...

EDIT: oops my bad... just finished d/ling the high res version and the phasing flurricane attempt is really a mile away... it looks a heck of alot closer on the low quality version hahah

Thank you ever so much, Mr. Linnanen. Awesome video. I especially appreciate it being so quickly done, I was afraid we'd have to wait for a month to see anything significant. Your editing was excellent, it was nice having the Euro's logo around every once in a while. And the shred... oh boy. I did not see Vasek play much personally, but what you cought on video is simply superb. Superb. Hope you'll keep it up with a vid from Montreal.

Catch you all later.

YES, very human. And he speaks english fine. He just doesn't talk to you if you aren't talking about something he likes (beatboxing and spliffs). He does drop and he does give props and he doesn't hit every thing he wants.
Is he the best in the world, yes, is he human, yes.
His first 5 dex will be barraging ss dod swirl, or thats what my moneys on.
