Yes, summer is really over now and the winter is coming. For many of us that sadly means less jamming opportunities but at least we have some, ehm, MANY videos to watch. Summer was full of jamming and fortunately people with cameras were often around. Since you will find a crazy amount of videos below, I decided to categorize them a little and highlight some by embedding them. Others are attached in the form of links but that doesn’t mean they are not worth watching – they really are! Enjoy…
The title of videographer of summer definitely belogs to James Wiseman. He’s been feeding us with a delicious content all summer and he just doesn’t stop. Many of his videos are related to FPA World Championship which took place in New York in August and offered many opportunities for heinous US – Euro jam collabos. See for yourselves…

STJP always deserves it’s own category. This time it features Pipo Lopez who is showing his best at Jacksonville beach…
And more from James the Incredible. This time his study tapes where he shows his mastery. Simply the best what you can see in contemporary freestyle disc play.
