Re: Weapon of choice

I've always been a fan of playing in unusual places, but I think this takes the cake. I was surprised to see the kind of stuff Milan was hitting with what seems to be the most amazing crappy bag ever. I think I'll keep the password on file, so that I can watch it a few more times.

Re: Edmonton kickers: Impromptu session!? (March 21, 22, 23)

Hi Johnny, I've pmmed you my phone number. I'm game to have a few sessions and am also flexible with times. I'll see if I can round up any of the other players. Are you in town today (Wednesday) or tomorrow (Thursday)? The dates you mentioned below don't seem to line up with the days. The only time ...

Re: Sporatic Playing Training.

I think playing intermittently during the day in different environments to train a specific concept or trick could be beneficial. However, as Ken pointed out this has to be done with some care since some concepts/tricks are more likely to cause injuries without proper warmup for certain people. For ...

Re: Upgrading modified

I will wait a few days for other people to brainstorm ideas for features/requirements and then I will compile a google form where we can rate the priority of each suggested main/sub feature. The results of the form should give us a rough consensus of which features should be added in and in what ord...

Re: Upgrading modified

The progress with new modified is looking really great so far Roy! I took a look at some community websites and brainstormed some features with Chelsea Dagger that we might want to include in our new footbag community website. Feel free to discuss which features you think would be important or wheth...

The festival ran from August 16th - 26th and included a variety of buskers, vendors, and theater performances. It is often quoted as being the second largest fringe festival in the world besides the one...

Re: Muffinman

Just wanted to let you know that I am really digging the old VHS vids. I basically haven't seen most of them and really like seeing the wide variety of styles and trick selections players used to have. It seems maybe like player's styles have a lot less character these days? Anyways, thanks for uplo...

IMO the footbag community hub needs to move away from being soley forum driven and be something more like specialized facebook. I think I've brought this up before, but for example look at the following hooping community website: http://www.hoopcity.ca/ I'm not sure what its running off of, but i kn...

That room looks amazing. Also, the shred was cool too. I think a room like that would be really neat to have at an electronic dance party (minus drunk people bumbling into the walls).

Ooooooooh. I would really like to attend this, but I am already going to be in Montreal at the end of May. I'm not saying it's out of the cards, but things are looking slim considering air fares have jumped from ~$450 for my upcoming trip to nearly $700 for the June dates. Maybe I can pre-compete? ;...
