New "old" guy here.

Post by Wizardvette »

Hey all. I am a 35 year old intermediate player. I have two Jester sand bags, and two Kanga pellet bags that I am partial to. We shred at work with about 5 of us playing. What are the ages of some of the older shredders here?

At Worlds, Jack Kellar, Keller, Ghellar....something like that...he's 45, and he competed intermediate.

Cool guy. :)

And Petter Irish (theExecutioner) he is somewhere about your age and he is 5 times World Champion. He still shreds and compete and is always in Top5 on Worlds...

I feel "old" with 25 compared to the average age here on the forum...
But there are certainly some more out here above the 30 mark..

Word Up to the NYFA!

We're kind of a "mature" crowd in NYC, and we're sometimes visited by Ted Fritch, a footbag veteran of an advanced age. Me and Bruce and Ted had a good session at Coney Island a week before Worlds. Lots of fun, and I got to ride The Cyclone.

Hacky Sack Jack Lentz still competes well in net, and he's about fifty.

Wizardvette, come down to Harrisburg, PA for the Funtastic Summer Classic on Labor Day Weekend. Ted, both Jacks, Peter, and many others young and old will be there.
