Honza does post on these forums and I dont know if vasek uses computers a lot or not or if he just doesnt read forums. but I dont think its cause he thinks he is too cool :p

they must be too cool for school i guess...
I talked to both Ales and Honza and they do NOT modify insides at all.
Honza's reason was that it is bad for symposium tricks.
Ales just doesn't like doing weird stuff with his shoes.
Vaska...hm...I didn't ask him personally tho, but Ales told me that he was not sure if Vaska does it or not, but I'm pretty sure he does.
And one more thing: you know what improved my butterflys and clippers? I changed my lacing type. If you watch Lon's videos from mosterhack.com you can notice that his shoes are not laced at all! I mean they are really really loose. He has some reasones for that, I asked him about it. IMHO lacing can enlarge you inside's area.

the reason lon doesn't lace em tight is obvious... you can get your clippers flatter....that is the same what this mod is for! you can have em tight (support!) with the ability of more flattish clippers... of course, if you have ankles like vasek, vojta or honza, you don't need the mod. but only few do! so for more flatish clippers there are two things to do: STRETCH! and EITHER lace em loosely (like lon) OR cut your shoes (like brocka)...

Gotta toss out another positive review for this mod.
I played hard with it for like 2 and a half hours last night, and I really felt it helped with my osises, and made cranking my ankle into clipper position a lot easier after a while.
Good stuff.
I would definitely recommend everyone at least trying it on an old pair if you have one ... If not, it may be worth a shot anyway, but maybe wait until it becomes more accepted as a 'must do' mod by the community or something ...

Re: Brocka s word
You are refering to me? What did I do that makes me an ass licker or to makes you laugh? I posted the best pic of the mod you created to a very highly viewed forum of shredders who have now tried it out and some have enjoyed it. I guess that was stupid, and since you say that you want your mod on modif. paper then I guess you dont care about other shredders learning your mod. Am I an ask licker because I pmed honza and asked him if vasek uses this mod because I was interested. He replied with some advice that he thought could help and I passed along that advice to fellow shredders in order to help, if you dont want to listen all you have to do is ignore my posts. By implying that I am sucking up to these other shredders you are basically saying that I put them on a higher level then myself or others, but this is not the case, they are just people like everyone else and one of the things I love about footbag is the atomosphere of acceptance and equality. I guess you dont see it this way or meerly believe I am immature enough to idealize people that are good at kicking a hack. Perhaps this is the way you see these shredders and maybe not but please dont make assumptions about other people, myself included. Sorry that I have offended you for what ever reason you have imagined I guess you just wanted someone to pick on. Also please note I never posted anything about this mod and it affects on symposium moves, please read more carefully if you plan to critize me.Mr.Brocka wrote:word up to all the shredders out there...

I would give my personal review of playing with the mod for more then two weeks but I guess it would be viewed as impartial so I will just leave it out. Thanks for encouraging discussion on the board. Once again I apologize if I have offended you in anyways, its kinda sad that I all I seem to do is apologize lately and must try to anticipate with every post how I can avoid possibly offending people with my posts that are meant to be informative or enjoyable in a discussion atomosphere.

Why not perform this mod on the outside surface, too, instead of just the inside?

as i wrote to JOn before ... i would like to apologize to anyone /and especially to JON/ who found my last post offensive in any kind of way ...
...and remember that brockcut cannot be taken as something that works by it self ...u need to stretch ...with proper stretching and brockcut u simply cannot have ankle flex problems.....
aith all the respect Peter Brocka

Because unless you're Jon Schneider, you probably don't use your outsides enough to make that worth while. Plus when people roll their ankles, they roll them to the outside, so a lack of support on your outside probably wouldn't be a good idea.Stephen Barnes wrote:Why not perform this mod on the outside surface, too, instead of just the inside?
