I just finished up editing a killer solo shred video. Check this out and TURN UP YOUR SOUND!

This reminds me, I need to create a “Videos” section with all of the club’s videos. I think we have some going back to as far as 2003.

Alright so there have been some questions about the wheres and whens of regular session times. If you’re new or just found out about the club at Marleyfest or Eeyore’s birthday, here’s the deal we have 2 regular sessions a week. Click on the link above that says “Sessions”, or click here.

P.S. I filmed a little bit at last night’s session, possible new video coming soon!

Hack season is in full swing!

Hey everybody, just a quick update, because there is a TON of stuff going on right now. First off, Austin Reggae Fest was awesome! Last year it was kind of crappy, this year it was much better. If you missed it, what the hell were you thinking? Saturday night we busted out a glow-in-the-dark Nighthack and played for well over an hour after dark. If you just found out about the club this weekend, here is the scoop on stuff we got going on this week:

Tuesday 4/21: session in Kyle Park, in Kyle, TX at 7pm. Email ironcladben /at/ footbag {dot} org for more info.
Wednesday 4/22: usual session outside the Palmer Events center at 7pm.
Saturday 4/25: EEYORE’S BIRTHDAY. If you come to one event in Austin this year, it should be this one. It’s a FREE “Keep Austin Weird” themed festival at Pease Park on Lamar all day Saturday. Hack circles, drum circles, people in costumes, potato sack races, the list goes on. Crazy fun, BE THERE!

Kicking off shred season with some new gear

Czech out mah new gearrrr!

Quantum 3.1 shoes and a Fearless 55 bag

That’s a new pair of Quantum 3.1 Footbag Shoes and an Abshire Fearless 55 Footbag courtesy of the fine folks over at Freedom Footbags. Thank you Freedom! These guys are the best. They carry all the best equipment (for beginners all the way up through pro) and have fast, friendly service. Plus their bags are made in the USA by footbaggers for footbaggers so you know you’re getting top quality. I got myself a fresh pair of shoes and an awesome new bag. I’ll be tearing it up tomorrow in these bad boys. What a way to kick off shred season!

P.S. Two new videos in the works. Footage from the Brenham jam back in February and a special project called “Satelight night” that has been in my head for almost a year and will soon be made a reality
