Freestyle Chat / Re: RBSS organization 2012

nope he brought good arguments, you didnt. you have to understand taht freestyle doesnt have anything todo with football. all my friends play football and literally nobody of them understands the slightest thing about freestyle.

Yes, but they need famous people like Cannavaro and Inzaghi for marketing purposes. Maybe in a few years when there's a real fan base around freestyle football, things can be done differently. When the organisers are convinced they will easily sell all tickets and get media attention even without any pro football players involved, I guess/hope they will continue with freestyle oriented people only.

It's just too early to condemn Red Bull for their choise. The reason why RBSS exist in the first place is still mere business..

Help and Advice / Re: problem with shoes while training

Might be the type of shoe that is not working for you. I fully understand what you're saying.

To me the shoes you're using right now kinda look like they have a thick tip. Meaning that there's too much space between your foot and the ball. This would lead to the problems you're facing right now.

So my 2 cents: go get a new pair with a smooth shape close around your foot.

Agreed, I also loved the whole tv program setup with all the interviews and the trickpedia part. It looked very professional. Maybe the first time I ever felt that freestyle football got the recognition that it deserved on a big stage.

I also wasn't surprised to hear that RBSS will be organised on a yearly base from now on starting in Tokyo next year. I really think Red Bull is planning to put freestyle football on the same level as all their other extreme sports, which mainly take place in the US. Freestyle could be one of their 'toys' for the European market.
