haha good one fx...and dudes not everyone has to be the same in freestyle people have weaknesses and strengths and fx has a super strength in lower combos so who cares if he cant do the transition ud like to see cause to be honest I would prefer if in fxs vids we never saw anything besides lower!

pff he represented his country at the world championships and all he has to show as a transition is putting the ball between his knees and sit down? that was poor. lower combo was stylish though.


You seriously think that this is the best FX can do?  :039:

i know that his best sits, transitions, and uppers wont impress me at all.

Hater

i couldnt care less.
I don't care if he can't do some awesomely godlike transitions. He is one of very few people that are able to execute hardcore lowers in live performance.

yes but then he should stick to his style like mirko does it. when fx shows sits or uppers its obvious that he doesnt enjoy them at all and does them only for performances and i have to disagree with all of you: his sits dont look good.

sry for being so negative in this topic but i hate it when people do something they dont want to do only because they think it will get them money or fame.
how can you be so sure that this is the purpose of fx?

because i heard several times that fx said something like: i cant concentrate on freestyle anymore, it wont bring me any money, i will go to the army.

And have you seen any video lately that was compareable to his old videos? i mean in terms of passion etc. no i only saw promotion videos or allround competition videos like this.

i dont hate fx, i just love his old videos, i watch em like every day to motivate myself but the new ones make me sad.


In a way his right?
I mean, i bet when he started freestyle, he or who ever freestyled during the early stages of freestyle didn't think they can make a living of out it, but there comes a time when we all need something like a job to earn money....
For example, i know i myself love training 4-5 hrs a day freestyling, but is it really worth it? Like can i be instead earning money, not training. Luckily i do have a job freestyling, thats why i can train sometimes 4-5 hrs a day freestyling, knowing i will have events to earn money. But what about freestylers that don't have sponsors? or a brand? As much as they will love to train their passion of freestyle, if ya want to live a stable life, ya need to find a way to earn money.... Maybe that's why he said such a thing...

Maybe im not clear, but hope you guys understand.....

or maybe he wants to try this stuff? when skora first started doing sits/uppers it was not exciting. but now his all round stuff has earned him much more respect. i dont see a problem when fx does the same.  if mirko doesnt do it, its his choice. besides, fx took time off freestyle when he went to the army, so it is understandable.
Another angle to this is that when my progress in lowers come to halt despite all the efforts, i rely on uppers and sits to keep my interest. Pretty sure most freestyler experience the same.  lets just be happy that he is back!

he doesnt want to try this stuff, he does it because he has to. i remember him at eurobac 07 he was like the coolest guy ever who just did a 1 minute long lower combo. if the fx of this time was back, i would be happy. but now he is different. if you have some experience in freestyle you can see what people enjoy doing and what they just do because they have to.

I agree with max. The kind of sits he does are what you get after practicing for 4 years of sits 30 minutes a week... same goes with his uppers. there is not much effort or emotion put into his sits or uppers or transitions for that matter. there is improvement though, but mainly in stamina and consistency.
However, if fx REALLY practices sd and uppers because he wants to be a strong all round fser but still try to be the lower king then that would be the ULTIMATE pwnage
just like skora is right now.  :Woot_Emoticon:

maybe you just don't like sits or uppers? or maybe your so used to him doing lowers that sits and uppers from him does not interest you

sorry, somehow i agree with max, i dont know what fx says or thinks, but when I watch his old videos there is much more passion (or atleast it seems to be) but anyway, anyone should do what he likes to do, thats just my own opinion

I don't care if you agree with me or him lol.
Just understand FX's point of view on styles.

Hmmm, maybe I get your point somehow, but when you watch the golf pants video, he said in the description he started to train again and I'm happy just about this fact. God knows, maybe he will kick some asses again....Saying that his sits/uppers/transitions/videos are boring as hell is almost like telling him to stop training...at least, it seems to me like that.
