Performer and demonstrator

I've performed at thousands of schools in the United States and Canada. I've performed Footbag as many other types of events as well including festivals, fairs, churchs, colleges, and more. The performances with Creative Athletics and Infinity Toys were booked through an agent but I booked all of the Brothers from Different Mothers performances myself.

• USA
• International

I've performed Footbag for about two thousand schools and tons of other types of events, for example, festivals, county and state fairs, colleges, corporate events, cruise ships, churches and more. All in all, I performed live Footbag for about 1,000,000 people.

Thousands of performances

I don't remember training camps being a thing during my Footbag career but I thought I would use this space to give a summary of my Footbag accomplishments.
-On a side note, I feel like there should be a category in this nomination process for people who produced Footbag videos and contributed to Footbag's online presence. VHS, DVD, and online Footbag videos were a huge part of my development as a player. The people who produced these videos have made a giant contribution to the sport.
Summary of my career:

- 1st tournament attended, 1997. First Tournament as a competitor, 1999
- World Champion, Intermediate Freestyle, 1999
- Open finalist 2002
- Multiple top 5 Mixed Doubles Freestyle finishes at Worlds and other tournaments
- Guinness World Record holder for Eclipse (current) and former record holder for Infinity
- Co-founder of Rain City Shred Footbag Club (Seattle)
- Co-Director of the Seattle Juggling and Footbag Festival from 2002-2007. During it’s peak, it was the largest Footbag event in North America
- Thousands of school assembly shows demonstrating and performing Footbag from 1999-2010
- Performed Footbag as part of a comedy show was was my full-time job from 2001 thru 2011.
- All in all I estimate that I performed live Footbag for a million people.

I helped teach Justin Dale who went on to become a top player and leader of the Rain City Shred Footbag club.

Justin Dale

I wouldn't say I was an official coach to any player. I did however help several players learn the most prominent of which is probably Justin Dale.

It's me, Alex Zerbe. I am the source.
