Thats fucking awesome Eli, great job on getting the exposure and for just getting the opportunity for yourself and getting something back for your footbag efforts! The shoes are pretty pimp, i wonder if they sell in Oz...

Great job on the ad and thanks for sharing the photos too.

lol the Scorpions Tail and Ripstein are 'the'. *light-hearted dig*

that's a really expensive villa by the look of it. I remember using some of the shitiest motels in the middle of nowhere in Africa for around 100$ after negotiating...

The few city pictures make the country where I was look like crap. Maybe I'll go to south afrika as well one day.

Thanks for sharing

Yeah, that seemed strange to me that Eli and Vasek just randomly went to Africa. Now I understand.

Great job on repping the sport, even if only for 20 seconds of airtime.

I noticed that too. Also, the double down on the ST is like behind him, so most people who don't know footbag won't be able to see what he's doing there because the dexes and the bag are mostly out of view.

I can't believe 13 hours of shooting and that's what they decided to put on the commercial.

Well, hey, free trip to Africa. Props, don't think I'm being a hater.

Props for the exposure, the commercial looks cool

It's crazy how Vasek has no problem with shredding in shoes with a bad inside, well supercrank is supercrank

Yeah, that was awesome.

Will that be airing on U.S. television as well?

man, this is one of the best things that has happened to footbag yet!

I just hope people who see this and want to try to get into footbag won't use those K-swiss shoes..... ouch. Anyway that still cool as hell to have a major commercial venture feature footbag; seems like there's been a lot of (non-US) exposure for footbag lately. It's a nice trend.

Super cool that this happened but I was dissapointed in the commercials. You know what I mean Blitz, but SUPER cool that it happened though. They shoulda had you edit the end result lol.

Just wanted to say how awesome I thought this commerical was. I really enjoyed it and I think it makes footbag looks really good.

QuantumBalance · Post by **QuantumBalance** » 10 Feb 2007 15:59

How does it make footbag look really good? They show more shoe than bag, the cinematography is wack.
