Ianek tribute video

[C-Fan]

A couple weeks ago, I unexpectedly got a note from Ianek on Facebook. In a nutshell, his note said that he had pretty much not played footbag for 2 years, but two recent events had inspired him to start playing again this fall. The first event was Aleksi visiting Montreal over the summer, and the other event was a string of videos I posted on YouTube. I was really touched by his note, both because it is awesome that he's playing again, but also that he took the time to send me a note in the first place. About a week later, Ianek released his video, which in turn inspired me. Beyond the overall high level of shred, seeing Ianek reminded me that there isn't anything holding back our creativity in freestyle. Almost exactly a year ago, I was hitting some creative stuff. But over the winter I started working fearless, which resulted in my game became a lot more traditional. Ianek's video inspired me to go back to trying more creative links. In some cases, his combos looked challenging and fun enough that I had to try them myself. Anyway, here's footage from a session inspired by Ianek. Welcome back man. I hope you continue to inspire the rest of us.

Really enjoyed the whole vid. My favorite was probably the combo starting at 1:30. I think the Christmas calendar this year should have a creativity theme to it. I'd like to see everyone's take on creativity. Nice job, kept me entertained.
