This is an awesome video I saw just recently from a footbag tournament in Zurich, Switzerland. It features Dennis Schleussner from Germany who is apparntly the world yo yo champ. He is fucking incredible!! Also at the end there is a little footbag of Kenny Shults who is the person who invented freestyle footbag but also has pretty average style and isn't really impressive - at least to me :P

The vid is big but on a fast server 93 mb I think and goes for just over 9 minuets

this is another video which is mainly footbag footage. It features the top two players in the world although not hitting anything completely amazing. Also some average juggling and some cup stacking! (Crazy crazy sport - I don't know if anybody has seen the vid of Emily Fox breaking the world record but it's so funny. I don't understand this sport at all really :P) but also has the coolest yo yo trick ever in it. You'll know it when you see it :P Also a big video - 70mb and goes for just over 7 minutes.

edit: these are parts 2 and 3 of a five part movie. I can post up all five parts if people are really interested but I doubt that :P There is some awesome beatboxing in part 4 and some net footbag action in vid 5 but I think non footbaggers wouldn't really appreciate them much :P

Dled the videos, was pretty entertaining. How weird is that guy though? Up on stage with funky music in the background, almost dancing as he does his yoyo tricks. Bet he gets all kinds of girls =P

Also really like the juggling tricks, especially when he was simply raising and lowering a ball with his right hand, and yet it was like some weird kind of illusion that made a grid like shape.

Show us some vids with multiple people playing footbag if you have any :)

I've never seen any footbagging, no good stuff anyway, and that was bloody awesome. Wish i had that kind of co-ordination! I can't believe you reckon those two guys aren't even doing anything good, it's crazy shit!

You may as well post up the other parts ;).

Incidentally winning the world championships.

Glad you enjoyed footbag/juggling/yo yo! It's all totally possible to learn that stuff too no matter how coordinated you are - you just need to find out what the right stuff to practice is and practice lots. The only thing that holds you back is attitude. If you say "I couldn't ever do that" then you'll be right but if you say "I'm going to learn that" and you put the time in you will for sure. Compare your video game skills to your parents - the only thing you need to get good at anything is the right attitude.
