Freestyle Chat / Re: Lubasz Freestyle Comp Results
« on: Jan 28, 2013, 01:19: AM »


Azun isn't improving much.  Freestyle seems to have risen past him, almost to the point where he's just barely hanging in with the middle of the pack.

Good that you know Adi.

1. i have a kne problem for 8 months now(also in lecce). I did qualification in lubasz with almost no lowers. Just basic.
2. i went to lubazs because i want more competition practice. I have problem with nervs.
3. i lost against the best player in the competition: Tobias. (i tried harder lowers against him, but it was not possible).
4. tobias won totaly fair.
5. you havnt seen all battles, and you wasnt there to get the feeling. Video is something else, its all about first impression...

Have a nice day.

you cant compare busking with a sponsor job...


with busking you always get what you deserve...

but i do have to agree with Luki...

If you cant do a show... dont do it...

should practice atleast 2-3 years before you do a show... and it SHOWS hehe.. even how fast you improove in video doing hardcore lower...

Also I do games for the Chicago Fire, they pay us hourly, basically it is $75 a game, but some of us are waaayy better than the others (some of us feel we are getting underpaid), we're doing halftime shows every game next season, what would guys say would be a good price for that?

Dont go by hours... tell them that its the practice for show that takes time and that is what you get paied for by doing a 5min show.

1 booking is 1 day of work atleast!

So you should atleast charge twize of a normal day payment. (no idea how much that is in your area...)


Then it comes down to how "Famous/good" you are... and offcourse how big the event is...

School LP is cheap (they dont have money)
Event/sponsor LP should be expensive (cause they have the money)


Many will have all these escuses to not pay... but remeber that they want a show and when they have called you.. in almost every case they dont have a backup plan, they just expect you to go cheap if they push you abit...

So know the marked and check who is asking.

Some days ago i checked a company that got over 300million in their finals for 2010... i guess they can afford me... ;)


Hope this was abit helpful, and remeber its not about fucking others, but not getting fucked ;)


Take care


Azun


(and yeah some would say its all about fucking, but then you freestyle for the wrong reasons ;) )

Tupac:

I understand your point of view, I used to think like that aswell. But the situation has changed - I am now, let's say, experienced in freestyle market, so are other guys(Azun, BigMac). If you were more into what we are doing(I mean PR, lps etc.), you'd point out that your attitude is very dangerous for "freestyle market". You are selfish a bit but it doesn't work, really. And trust me, you wouldn't take 5 lps for 200.
I am firmly convinced that you would cut the price because you would be afraid that the company wouldn't hire you. I used to do sth like that but it's pointless. Just tell the high price and if eg. 3 companies don't agree, 4th would agree. And then you have got:
-a lot of money
-more time that you can spend on whatever you like doing(because you don't go on 4 lps)


Azun: that sentence about polish workers hurt me! :(
Kiddin, that's actually true

I can tell you this, that in Norway we NEED polish workers, cause we dont have enough construction workers here... so its not negative here, and we also have a rule that make sure the polish workers get the same payment as norwegians! :)

Im sure you got people coming to poland and work even cheaper.. I just gave an example and i think its the most typical in Europe (Germany-Poland)

when you are selfish and dont give a shit about others... well then its normal to get the heat from everyone... so dont feel too pity about it :)

Yes, in a big scale this is how the world works, but do we want that in freestyle football?


Im pretty sure the germans are tired of polish workers doing the job for half the price...
and im sure there are some guys/nationas going to poland aswell,, and take their jobs... thats a messed up chain reaction!

Main problem is that we are trying to make a system where everyone are equal...
its not possible... people are different :)

Got paied in KL.

Redbull paied for me and one more to go and have 4 great days in NY.
I didnt need to bring a ball. I asked for the lp to promote myself. I asked for halftime performance. Redbull said no, because of strickt rules with the grass...   

You may do what you like... I just Think you should take a minute and Think about it...
500dollars is nothing in sweden, but in most part of the world: its alot...
This kind of shit will make it impossible for guys like palle and Daniel to stay professional...
Do we want freestyle to just be for kids and students?
$500 dollar to me is a lot. When you're in high school the best job you can get is some shitty minimum wage job that pays like $7.25hr.
Truth be told I would do any show for $500, hell I'd do any show for almost any amount of money cause I still live at home with dad and I don't have any bills to pay.
I'll still market myself in a way to get the most outta any performance, but if companies were smarter they'd already know everything I've stated above and could make cutbacks on what they pay.

At the end of the day I don't care if I put someone else out of a job because I did it for cheaper, I only care that I'm happy with whats in my pocket.

Shows that you need to stay there for a wile longer :)

and with an atitude like that, you shouldnt call yourself "Tupac"...

and yes they are for sure smarter then you... since you actully belive they know the marked...

If they say that, and you agree to go lowprice... then they know you arent of such a high quality... cause then you would just tell them to fuck off ;)

I go to prague for free because i belive lucaso does something great for the sport...

Mirran: Lp and competition is very different.
Redbull pays nothing, but winning it is worth alot...
I went to KL to do much better then i did... Andrew got 5000£ out of it cause he won...

In 2 weeks i will do a show for free. Cause the promotion i Get out of it is worth alot! :)
