The Missoula Footbag Alliance


Kevin, Evan, Jeremiah, and Me.

Before we left town, Janice and I had a very fortunate meeting with some members of The Missoula Footbag Alliance. We actually met Evan and Jeremiah 2 years ago on our last bicycle tour, The Rocky Mountain Bicycle Expedition, and I couldn't believe it when our paths crossed again. It was awesome to see Evan and Jeremiah again, but it was incredible to see their progress. I am not an expert at judging footbag skill, but Kevin, Evan, and Jeremiah all seem to be expert with the footbag. They make magic with their feet. They combine skill and timing with creativity and style--and the end result is something totally amazing.

For a footbag demo, check out this video of Kevin. And for more info: a site dedicated to spreading the art of freestyle footbag.
