1997 World’s Results

Almost 10 years ago now, I entered my very first footbag competition in Portland Oregon at the 25th Annual World Footbag Championships. What an experience. Attending that year with Jubal and Jeremy absolutely changed my life as I got to witness Peter’s amazing routine during semi-finals where he had choreographed with Toby Robinson play ing the didgeridoo. I watched Eric Wulff (I have this on video somewhere) and Ryan Mulroney both go dropless in the prelims and met some other legends of the game while playing in some of the coolest shred circles ever.

So when Eli showed me the “overall men’s” results for this tournament just now, I was really curious about them. cCheck them out. The top 30 players are all net players. Peter, who won freestyle that year is only ranked 58th overall! Man, does crosss-discipline training ever make a huge difference in overall! Both my homies Jubal and Jeremy made the under 100 club, while I’m sitting pretty at 159th overall in 1997 As Eli pointed out, I beat him! ! by a whole three places

Anyhow, that concludes this trip down memory lane. Still kickin’ . . .
