Enter Birdball: Part II

Part II: The Birdhouse is Enter Play Sports’ headquarters and home of the Birdball.  It’s a 100 year old grain mill that Brad Jamison, Inventor and Creator of Birdball and also Terri’s husband, had renovated over the years.  The Birdhouse is located in Warrensburg, New York.  After about a week of exchanging emails and chat messages with Terri, I finally had the means and time to make a trip out to The Birdhouse and play this new sport. I was in total awe at my first impression of The Birdhouse.  Nice wooden beams, high ceilings, and very well lit too.  I am a sucker for nice woodwork and old renovations. When...

Enter Birdball: Part I

Part I: After a few years in my freestyle footbag lull, I was desperately craving a new outlet for my creativity and physical energy.  I contemplated going back into hardcore training mode with footbag, but every time I tried, it just didn’t feel the same.  I was still seeking for that next best thing.

Part II: This new sport was so fascinating to me that I immediately began attempts to imitate the tricks they were performing on that video.  My brother and I began to find more examples; we surfed online communities, forums, and watched a plethora of videos posted online from people all over the world.  I practiced tricks over and over, studying with massive persistence and dedication.  I was determined to conquer the sport.  I was so into freestyle footbag that I almost stopped skateboarding altogether.   I had replaced my previous fascination with something even greater, something new. So every day, during school,...

Pursuit of the Underground: Part I

Part I: I would like to share with the world, my experiences, thoughts, and endeavors as I strive to make my dreams come true.  Life to me has been a wild journey so far.  And it continues to grow and become more exciting every day that I live it.   This is my story. Growing up I was one of those kids in school that didn't really enjoy going to class.  Instead I would be daydreaming about new tricks on my skateboard, or playing hacky sack in the halls.  The two classes I could stand going to was Art and Gym, as they were also a creative and physical outlet for me just like the sports I was into.  To me school...
