Eric Wulff comes back into open footbag net from a long history of footbag freestyle accomplishments: He first hit the scene in 1986 as a founding member of the Ocean County Clippers freestyle team. With partner Peter Irish, he won the world title in doubles freestyle in 1996 and with partner Tuan Vu again in 1999. He is the 2001 European Freestyle Champion, and what we all know him for today, 1998 Open Singles Freestyle World Champion. Only Kenny Shults can lay claim to what Eric Wulff is eyeing to become: Singles Open Net and Freestyle World Champion. This is a competitor worth watching this summer if you want to see grace, control, power, and yes even charm on the footbag net court.

david Butcher enters this tournament with no lack in accomplishments himself. Winner of countless Regional tournaments and 3rd place finisher in open doubles net at the 1998 World Footbag Championships, this high flyer is feared by competitors for the height of his jump and the power of his spike. Forever a gentleman, David comes into this tournament with his knives sharpened, looking for the next innocent victim to put on his "Butcher's block".
