ok the improved xanabox was sick, I remember challening Anssi to hit that 2 years ago and he said no way, but now he does it, crazy how people still improve at such a level!

For those of you that keep up with Jay on Facebook, he posted a couple of weeks ago that he hit, the hardest combo ever (not a direct quote, but something similar). This is the combo he was talking about. Everyone asked him what the combo was and he never replied. This is why. I had no idea he was doing a video like this with Anssi though. So Awesome! Thanks guys!!! Christmas Calendar...this has been more like the Anssi Calendar!

Edit: Day 24: Fun with Slo-mo!!! No Evan Gatesman?!? :cry:
Could somone please do a high-res video of Clavens? That would be the best christmas present ever!
It is cool to see footbag in slo-mo, you really get to see all the muscles involved.

Very nice vid from Anssi, music, vibe, everything.

Really loved Marco's vid too. A loooot of slomos, slow music, just sweeet. I need to visit water temple one day.

We still have one day left to go. I want to thank everyone who contributed to this year's calendar. Many players represented, cool editing, all in all fun December.

Now I want to wish everyone a peaceful Christmas. Have a great one!

people, you guys are the best. i just got this email from dropbox:

Hi Marco,

This email is an automated notification from Dropbox that your Public links have been temporarily suspended on account of generating excessive traffic. Your Dropbox will continue to function completely normally with the exception of Public links.


so sorry, the link seems to be down, i will work out a way around it, maybe someone may upload to megaload or something like that, i dont have an account there, and i dont know how this stuff works

Uber Props!

I totally agree. I dunno about you guys but I could watch hi-speed/slo mo stuff all day. I also agree that it's great for introducing people to footbag.

props for the fuckin 23 minute video, too! :P

You never know what you're going to get on the 25th,

And this was welcomed. Milan is a friggen Rockstar, and I hope he stays that way.

What a great Calendar. I giant "Oh hi there Anssi!", a side of "30 minutes of Finland? Sure, I'll watch that video almost once a day while purring softly", a "Oh hi there club I wish I was a member of, you've got two Stanford videos waiting for me,"... This course followed by "Oh worlds 2009, you sexy girl I almost made out with at a party once, thanks for inviting me for coffee!", and then "Oh hi there Helsinki Crew, you're also the club I most want to be a part of, nice to see that Samu is busting 4-4's, and Pekka is breaking hearts one swirl at a time"....

Then there was the 23 minutes of water temple, where I sat somewhat entranced, perhaps drooling over myself.

Then there was Eric's video, well, the second video. I'm not sure about anyone else, but it is Christmas morning for me and I just want to play footbag, fuck presents. Later guys, I'm going to do a few ps whirls.

Day 25 was an awsome video. For sure. Artisticly probably the best i have seen for footbag.

Eric, in my mind, you are definitly one of the best video editor in the moment, and probably of all time. It's sad that you don't plan to make videos anymore!

Thx for everything.

All of the videos this year are great. There are a million things that I would do to change Eric's video, which is a testament to what a good idea and how worthy of attention I think it is. Props. Seriously.
