What Happened to Freestyle?

Seriously what happened? I know there are plenty of kids out there kicking, but lately it just seems like there's not much activity. Why isn't there any discussion going on out there? modified.in & footbag.org appear to be at a stand still. I think footbag is just a lull. Have we seen everything there is to do with a footbag already? Did Vasek & Jordan just hit every trick imaginable? Tournaments are becoming few & far between, it feels like all the footbag players in North America got displaced & moved to Europe since Chilly Philly & CSS have died. The New Year's Jam in Chicago & U.S. Open are the last of the large scale American freestyle tournaments. Is this all because of 2012?

Us Open is wonderful for footbaggers, as well as Hackrifice, GRASS, and Canadian tournies. Ye have little faith.

i suppose if i were to employ a canadian perspective, then i might be more optimistic. here in the southeast & even the u.s. as a whole footbag tournaments have been on the decline for a few years now. my hope is not lost, otherwise i wouldn't have a blog dedicated to footbag.
