i like rankings , but only when they are based on lps ....and purely that.

Why ? Have you ever seen a ranking in any other sport ..lets say tennis or basket ball where the training videos count ?

Nadal is the best , he recorded a serve with 200km an hour in his backyard :-)


good point. btw 200kph isnt nadals best and nor is it a record or anything of any spectacular comparisent on wat ur saying to rule training vids.

if theres a current list weres the link to it bcoz this is the first ive hird of it.

-Don't break combos.
-Don't use crossovers to save combos.
-If you're a new freestyler looking to improve, check the stickys in the help and advice section.
-Send me a personal message if you see spam.

Good point! Everyone can be amazing in a video. But not everyone can be amazing in first try.
I'm agree, but not only the lps, because they who win lp competitions arn't always the one who does the best air, sits and upper trick, but the best show tricks. You can't use tennis as an example, In freestyle you don't always train for a competition, you train to get a good combo, on film or not. But in tennis you just train for maches. you don't make training vids! and freestyle isn't all about competitions, you also make vids. So I think it should be based on lps and vids.
But I understand what you mean!

i have to agree with daniel. the most important thing to be considered is lps. this shouldn't be based on who won competitions, but how a group of whoever this sit chooses to be experts thinks that they performed. videos should allow some to get votes if the person does something special like inventing a new trick or breaking a record. the most weighted should be on lps, but we need to allow this little opening for those special things that happen in videos every now and than.

But I understand what you mean!

Pretend that i make a video and shoot footage for 5 months.. and in that video i make some amazing no touch combos and other cool stuff.. Then another make a pretty similar video as mine, but he only need to film for just 5 hours and nail pretty much every thing in the video on first try.

If someone is going to judge us based on the videos, they will put us straight after each other in the list. Even if the other guy is 10 times better than me. I dont care who is in the list or not in... but i just want to say its really really hard to decide who's the best out of videos. 

And the tennis player can make training videos if he want. But the video don't prove a shit about how good he is, cause he can been filming that really hard serve he got on tape, for many hours.....

Maukas Tom, and if someone hasn't ever got any LPs, he is bad freestyler? :)
P.S. it's tennis, no more, but take skateboarding and skateboarding freestyle. In 1st people need to competite with each other, but in 2nd...
And freetyle football isn't popular yet, so, it can be judged by videos too...
but it's only my opinion  :rolleyes:
