Watanabe at Body Beach-Freestyle

I had a chance to go down to Body Beach this morning(not a stretch, since I live just up the road), and had the opportunity to watch Fumikazu Watanabe, of Japan, doing some practice.

This is the guy that finished first last year at the Worlds Finals in the pro division, in freestyle. I'm rarely at a loss for words, but this guy left me speechless. OMG, he's fantastic!!!!

I watched his routing last year, and thought he was great then. Well, he's only gotten better. I took some video, and pictures. I still uploading the pictures, but here are links to two of the videos I made;

Pictures coming soon.

You have no idea. That guy is AMAZING!!! I was in awe.
I remember watching him, and the Russian guy last year, and both were great. But, I saw something this year, that I have never seen in the history of the sport of Freestyle. I'm not going to give it away, because I want everyone to be as stunned as I was.
