Brilliant!

I really liked the editing, there was some really subtle stuff there that I don't see used much in footbag videos which was really awesome! Your establishing shots were really good.

The other thing that stood out was the camera work! Did you use a tripod for most of the footage? It seemed really steady and the zooms looked really good. Some of the shot movement looked really professional, so congrats for that, most footbag editors don't seem to capture the power of camera work.

And ofcourse, good job Phil, on shreding as usual, like an animal ;).

Incredible video. I loved everything about it.

During the song summer in the city when the music breaks to the sound of street cars and horns and whatnot, you broke from the shred to the people around. That was a great editting idea. I only wish you had used the original summer in the city song by The Lovin Spoonful, but that is only because I am old enough to be familiar with it.

The change of music and scenery here and there kept me stuck to the video. Phil is simply amazing and watching him play is a delight and an inspiration to me.

I only hope that someday I am good enough to shred in the same circle with Phil.

One suggestion, get that older Red Rocket video, put it together with this one and perhaps another 15 minutes of Phil video, put it on a DVD and sell it. I would definitely buy it.

And Phil, please add more toes to your game. Quantum paradon was awesome. Now let me see a ten contact string of toe moves. I know you can do it.

Peace.

one of my favorite videos of all time. I haven´t seen any of the red rocket before, and he´s awesome.

Serious possible that somebody raised the video in another format, like avi or wmv?
