JPHein Consulting is proud to be a sponsor of long-time footbag champion Lon Smith. A forerunner in this up and coming sport, Lon has been competing in top tournaments around the world for the past decade, and placed an astonishing third place at his second world championships in 2001. This year, he placed 3rd in the US Open footbag championships (check out the video at right!), as well as gained some publicity for his sport as the star of the recent Modest Mouse music video entitled “Invisible.” Check it out in the videos section at the bottom on our Lon Smith page“Lon is an amazing athlete,” says Jeffrey Hein, vice president of JPHein consulting, “and deserves recognition for his devotion to the sport before it even was a sport.” JPHein Consulting will be supplying Lon with JPHein gear, including sportswear and custom made footbags, in support of his passion for this very cool sport.
