An 11 year veteran of the sport, Frederick Ethan Mason Husted
began his freestyle career in the liberal college town of Columbia, MO. After
quickly becoming obsessed with the sport, Ethan latched onto the top local
freestylers of the time, Joe Marshall, Derrick Fogle, and Rally ??? In 1996,
he moved to San Diego CA., and practiced regularly with the area's freestyle
representative, Richie Abshire. Ethan then relocated to what was at that time the
freestyle capital of the world, San Francisco CA. During this "golden era",
the Bay Area was home to many of the sport's top athletes, including
Peter Irish, Carol Wedemeyer, Eric Wulff, Tuan Vu, and Tim Kelly. Along with
practicing with the current professionals, Ethan played a great amount with
other young up-and-comers such as Sunil Jani, Ryan Mulroney, and Tu Vu.
In 1997 here in Portland OR, he was inducted into the professional class
group, the Big Add Posse. Since then Red has been associated with many freestyle
groups, including the Boulder Blades group, which included fellow BAPers
Ellis Piltz, Dave Holton, John Schneider, Rick Reese, Daryl Genz, and on
occasion, Brian Mckenzie. After graduating college
Red relocated to the northwest, and currently resides in Portland OR,
where he schools with a new and promising generation of up-and-coming talent.
Now in his "fourth prime", Red works full time promoting the
Northwest footbag scene and it's rich wealth of players.
