Title: Coninho's First Attempt at a Freestyle Video
Post by: FreeGFreestyler on Jun 28, 2011, 01:26: PM
This is my cousin by the way, not me. But I will pass on any responses to him.

Freestyle Football-Coninho (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZXgv5Cq-vA#)

Will do. I forgot to mention (and this is probably why he has a good weak foot) that he is more of a real soccer player. He plays provincial soccer here in canada. He is an attacking midfielder. He just freestyles for fun but is one of the best that I have seen live.

We are considered freestylers. Freestyle is not "real soccer" Its a variation. If you spin a ball on your finger does it mean you are a basketball player? No. Its a basketball trick. A variation.

OK OK. Freestyle is the art of expressing oneself with the use of a football doing various tricks and is a seperate SPORT than soccer. There ya go. It is not real soccer because it is a different sport.

why do you say "real soccer"? its not Soccer at all, real or fake lol... it just seems like you are implying that soccer is the real deal and freestyle is something for gays who werent good enough to be pro soccer players...



and youre absolutely right!

Its not football at all? Well half the name comprises of "football".  And I am certainly not trying to convince anyone that freestyle is gay haha. Freestyle and soccer are both great sports! Anyway this wasn't meant to be an arguement over if freestyle is real or fake or whatever.

What did you think of the video Dan? I have watched some of your freestyle videos and you are very good!

FreeGFreestyler, I hope you don't see our comments as an attack. We just like to educate new freestylers in a way that they'll feel bad(lol, harsh I know) so that when they become a more matured freestyler and understand our concepts, they'll do the same to a new freestyler some day. And the cycle continues :)

It's just the name of the ball we use, not the actual sport "football".

yes sure
its not a freestyle video, its a video of a kid demonstrating a few single tricks for 4 minutes...
i would love to write a few kind words about this video and you saying fs is some sort of football variation... but i am afraid that will hurt your feelings

I dont care what you say about the video it is not me freestyling. You won't hurt my feelings at all. Blast away alex. Also how is it not a freestyle video? I know the editing isn't the best  but what is it then?

tell him to practice consecutive atws, htws, hatws and be able to do tatw, matw, etc...

When you say 'real soccer' to a freestyler it's pretty patronising, as if we've never heard of football before.

It's the type of moves the person does that make it a freestyle video. In 2001, this would be considered a 'freestyle' video, in 2011, this is considered a football tricks video. And like most of these kind of videos, it's pretty much compiled of the same few single moves over and over.
Any other questions? :)

So basically your saying he is not good?
Title: Re: Coninho's First Attempt at a Freestyle Video
Post by: L_I_S on Jul 02, 2011, 01:32: PM
I didn't say that and I'm not implying that either. You can't compare a football tricks video to a freestyle video. It's like being great at rollerblading but can't play rollerblading hockey. Not being able to play rollerblading hockey doesn't mean he's not good at rollerblading.
That's probably not a good example but you can't really compare the two fairly imo.

he is not a freestyler, a football player capable of few basic tricks - why the fuck do you expect to get some positive feedback - some mofos sweat 30 hours per week practicing fs - and you want to get some positive comments on a video of some kid who learnt a few fucking tricks
stop arguing you little cunt - and both you and your cousin go educate yourself about fs - watch videos (palle, fx, skora etc) - practice hard and then come here - i don't ask you fucks to make videos or prove me anything - i ask you to shut the fuck up and stop hurting my feelings by writing some bs about freestyle and trying to prove your cousin is the shit

is it understood? mod - close this topic plz
