Chilly Philly was cool, im glad I got a chance to hang out with all my buddies that I dont get to see very much. The shred was cool, I didnt play good at all, but thats ok.. I dont think I hit any new moves, but I hit some fun combos over the course of the weekend. Big props to felix for the win, and for donning the pope hat and the wooden spoon and them "BAPtizing" me by hitting me on the nose with it :D

I want to skool harder so I can be good some day. And I still think my combo, though it should not win due to THE, is harder then the other two, but whatevah, ill bust harder next time, I guess. Dont forget to keep your camera ON Mathieu :wink:

ps: I cant wait for page 10. so that big-ass image doesnt ruin the text-size so i dont have to scroll to the right constantly.

It's really annoying when people who clearly are really good at footbag claim they 'want to be good some day'.

Seriously Nick, you're in BAP, that means that not only are you good, you are one of the BEST in the World. Stop writing that you want to be good someday, you already are. A ton of people would be so happy to have as much skill as you do, so be thankful.

I liked Nick's line. I'm sorry to inform you, Cole, that you might feel the same way no matter how good you get. With footbag, I'm sometimes frustrated, and never satisfied, but also never bored. There is always some part of your game (actually, several) that you are not done pushing or perfecting. Its a blessing to never be done with learning to play footbag, to never be finished getting good at it. Scratch that. I wish I were just perfect right now...

Oh, and big props to all of Montreal Shred for representing at CP. I was really glad so see all of you, and so many of you (some I hardly knew, and hardly met. Sorry. Next time...)

I know, and I understand. That is what's great about footbag. It was just the way Nick said it, I mean, personally at times I consider myself 'good' and I'm miles behind Nick. It was just the wording of it... as there is no two ways to cut it, Nick is GOOD. If he had said "I want to skool more so I can get better" or "perfect so and so" or "really raise my game" or something similar, than the line wouldn't have bothered me, but saying he hopes to get 'good' either seems like he's fishing for compliments or pick me ups, or is really just blind to his own skill.

At any rate, good luck with your skooling Nick ... hope you get where you want to be.

GO CLAUDIA!!

Oh snap.

I'm afraid I'll have to agree with Mr Hobson on this one, Nick is already good, but if he wishes to get BETTER that's perfectly correct.
