Andrew you're still fun to watch no matter what! Clean and strong style!

Day 13: Holy crap I'm a huge fan of Johnny and Jay (the Canadian version of Ben and Evan?) Just epic! I was sad to see no blazing/whirling sets Johnny or if there were I missed them :(

Really I try to request them whenever I catch you live, just to get me hot <3
Look a BLOG! That I never update

Holy crap that last 2 vids are AWESOME!!!!

Erik, Manna and Andrew. Great stuff. Would've liked to have seen more Andrew, but that's ok. Manna, wow. Very solid. Nice trick selection. Would like to see more Atomics and Quantums. Erik, very nice. It's nice to see you kicking with such intensity again. I really like seeing double downs from you. I also really like the pixie shuffle. You are the MASTER of rev whirls.

Johnny and Jay, I'm speachless. I really liked the intro. Great shred from both of you. Johnny you have one of the best styles out there! I really liked your run with rubberman 1 & 2 and blubberman, plus some of the crazy drills that you did. I look forward to more vids from you guys.

@Eric. There are a couple of whirling/blazing sets in there :wink:

8O

best video in the calendar to date!
Johnny's opening string is one that i have dreamed about since i first knew what rubberman, blubberman, and rubberman II were. I think that's the first time i have seen all three combos combined. huge props. Jay you have made leaps and bounds since i bear hugged you after your dropless semi's routine in prauge this year. I loved the tandem stuff you guys did. It's obvious to see that kicking with johnny on a regular basis has payed off, as your trick selection has increased 10 fold AND you've started taking on tricks that are well out of the norm!
while even the video makers may not be aware, I'd like to point out that the track has been used before in a footbag video. Footbag nerds like my self will undoubtedly recognize this as the song in the background during the opening scene of sick 03, where grisha tellenbach bobs his head in rhythm, before going into a string infront of the notre damme cathedral. News you can use.

I realise this is a pretty big statement, but I'm gonna say it anyway. Johnny's swirls are, porentially, the best thing since sliced bread. Also, pdx alpine gary coleman was absolutely ridiculous. Jay, lookin super solid as ever. I'm glad schooling hasn't interfered with your schooling too much.

I'm only commenting on the last video cause it's the only one real fresh in my head, but I am really loving the christmas calendar this year. It's setting a new, really intensely high level. Thanks everybody!

I don't have a ton of upload space available, (I was offered some, but I have work tonight, and will be gone from home for the next 10 hours...) so here's a torrent!

Yes, it is going to download pretty friggin slow, but it IS going to download. :D

Enjoy, Day 14.

Day 14 posted.
I hope you don't mind, Zac, Kevin wanted me to post his link and update the thread. I guess since it will take a long time to download it, mayhap.

Pow, I just finished watching that. Everything is so good, I think I have to breakdown my props into sections,

Audio: As you are Kevin, I felt a need to listen to the finer points of the audio in here. You are severely talented, and I imagine that is only shown through extremely diligent work and patience. I was happy to see that the end audio credits had the two beatboxers names that I recognized during the video. You really mixed everything together so well.

Video: Obviously it was a good time. I wasn't at the tournament, and I was laughing pretty good at so many points. The random Rory singing was great, and Andrews cackling laughter just brought such good memories of both people to mind. As for the shred, I am glad you captured so many unique moments, and presented them in exactly this way to us all. I can't believe that Derek could still throw his legs in such a fashionable manner around a footbag despite not playing. Byrin wasn't a surprise, and I loved every second of it.

Andrew: Is it really necessary to have a paragraph devoted to Andrew Grants style? I think so. First off, you belong in Clima's, because you are just that badass. Did anyone notice that when there was a manna section, Andrew hit whirl war one? Did anyone notice how they suddenly KNEW that their whirls were nothing in comparison to his? Like, just watching the bag fall from Kevin's dear elbow and onto Andrews Clima was such a good experience of crank from that angle. Dear Andrew, please make plenty of videos while you depart to that sunny paradise away from the Canadian Winter.

Such a good video Kevin. I thought it was a nice touch to throw phyllis in there, and that also burst me into laughter. I'm going to enjoy this for a second round, and enjoy how much time you put into the opening scene all over again. You sir are awesome.

Can someone help me? None of the new videos i've downloaded, I'd say the last two to three christmas videos, have worked. I'm using Windows Media Player.
It says this:
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.
Any advice?
Should I delete Windows and go to a different player?

There are apparently 9 seeds? I'm not sure what the problem with it is, but you should definitely be able to download it.

I'm uploading it right now, so it should be available to download in about half an hour.
