Even professionals score on themselves. Now I don't feel so bad.
It’s a big part of the game, at least half, right? 😂
read the name of the guy in the white shirt
Jsjjsjsjs wtf bro it's his last name?@@AssassinForPeace
Indeed! Haha
yeah ricochet rebounds are insane fast.
bro youtube suggested this to me. i'm enticed
Same 😂
I would have let my opponent get his glasses. I wouldn't want to win like that
I had to come looking for, my Al gore rhythm is off
Bro, I searched for it
Same bruh
The thing I love about games like this is that you might wander into a sports bar and potentially play the world's #1 and never know it. Everyone can be a hero.
That reminds me of when our company was bought by a larger org, that had locations around the world. During our first all hands meeting, we discovered a few locations had some pretty serious fossbal players (while at a pub during the event). Shortly after that, most locations had bought a table or two, and the next global meeting we had a tournament. While none of us were "pros" the games were intense, and made for some proper team building or rivalries.
I'm pretty sure it'd be very obvious very quickly that your opponent is a top-tier player.
@@jeffe2267 because he smashes the puck off the table every 5 seconds?
A hammy in air hockey is absolutely insane 😂
Thems the breaks...needed to hydrate more 😂
yeah i lold and immediately scrolled down
@centerlineproairhockey more beer or soda.
Best RUclips recommendation all year. Great match.
I can't believe I watched all of it. I thought I had good reflexes....
Whoever decided to create actual professional sports leagues with old school boys club and playground games is an absolute genius.
I love sports like this, air hockey, chase tag, paintball, all of that stuff. You get people playing because they love it. The passion, the emotion, the tension, the drama is all as compelling as it gets. There's something about the big league jaded athlete making more per game than most people make in a year, in an arena or ballpark or stadium where a seat can cost as much as some people make in a week that has soured me on those sports. I'd much rather watch something like this these days. It's always more entertaining and it's fun to check out something different for a change. Everyone involved here did a great job. I'm paused at the start of the 3rd set here, so time to unpause it and see how the rest of this unfolds. Cheers friends.
Our sentiments as well. Check out the Showdown we just did. You may really enjoy it. It was a livestream but we are releasing each match individually as well - first one is here:

Ehhh don’t put paintball in this category. Paintball is more betterer
@@jaymay7957more betterer? i don’t disagree but go learn some english then try to express an opinion
Homeboy pulled a hammy in air hockey!😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Clutching his hamstring" I've seen it all😂
This has to be one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen torn ACL’s in disc golf and that’s understandable, but an injury in air hockey??? 🤣🤣🤣🫡
This can happen when athletes at the highest echelons of sporting push their bodies to the limits of human capacity
@@MPHshoots How are you confused? They use a lot of fast twitch movements and drive thrust through their legs. It's literally exactly how muscle injuries happen.. Literally look at the actions they're making in front of you and apply logic instead of reading the words air hockey and instantly assuming idiotic things.
Yeah those hammies haven’t got action in a while
this feeling like the superbowl now. very fun stuff. new sport to me. great job folks
Got introduced to those kinda sports with the dodgeball world championship and added chase tag, massage world championship (this one was relaxing af), air dodgeball, tug of war and fistball to the list.... something about those competitions is so inspiring, like the passion is electrifying
M A S S A G E championship...
I think I need an anime of air hockey now
whole thing had me surprisingly hooked! makes me not wanna overlook the air hockey table next time i see one
Props to Colin, he defended and attacked b4 my eyes could even see them.
Awesome video. Colin's transition game was so absurd -- I had to go back and watch portions of the match frame by frame to track his movement.
He’s a fast dude for sure! Quick twitch muscles are essential in being the best at Air Hockey. Also, it’s about intuitively understanding where the puck is moving so you can get out ahead of it.
First time viewer of professional air hockey. I’m fired up and about to run through a brick wall.
Lol
GG's to both players. Colin plays so fast it blows my mind.
The commentary in this video has me weak 😂😂
I learned of the existence of competitive air hockey less than 2 minutes ago
Welcome to our world 🌍 😎😎😎
Did he really say the Jacob (red) was also in fantastic physical shape? 10:10
Whats so strange about that comment?
@@PlayuhFloodI’m guessing you’re Jacob
You may not like it but this is what fantastic physical shape for air hockey is.
A top notch specimen!
i mean look at everyone else 😂
To be fair this is the USA right? So Jacob is in the top 5% of fittest people in America.
Pulled a hammy in air hockey
lol, yeah, the guys do contort themselves super fast at times. You wouldn't think it would happen, but it's more physical than you realize with fast twitch muscles.
This was my first time watching Air Hockey. What a game!
Glad you discovered us :)
Bleachers at Air Hockey! Awesome! Nice to hear it's still a thing.
I don’t want to make a mistake: both these dudes are masters. But *at peak* Colin seems to possess an otherworldly, savant quality in how he constructs some shots. Jacob’s approach seems entirely different, playing more aggresively and therefore with more chances to score, but not as surgical.
They do play very different styles. That’s one of the most interesting things about high end Air Hockey. So much variation in styles and attacks.
Played a lot as a kid. No idea it was competitive.
Great job commentary! 👏
I swear I just found ESPN 8
Where's Pepper Brooks?
Saw a reel on Instagram. Thats why I’m here
WOWWW SOO CLOSE! GRATS BOTH
If my oponent were to loose his glasses, i would alow him to pick them up. I could not be happy winning this way
Time stamp?
@@JJ-hp6mb41:33
The final point
@@JJ-hp6mb 41:30
I'm guessing by that point that his glasses were becoming an obstacle for him anyway. He frequently adjusts them in the last game, so I'm thinking they were probably sweaty and falling off of his face as it was.
Great production !
I honestly think I could compete at this game at a professional level. I have played a bunch but never seen the way that the professionals play, but now that I have I think I really have a shot at it

Agreed!
This was like game 7 of the World Series and the Stanley Cup final moments… frikkin exhilarating
SALUDOS DESDE MEXICO 🇲🇽..ATTE. ANDRES ALEMANY. MANOS RAPIDAS, MULTITALENTO. LINDA NOCHE...!
Wow never knew it was a thing.
I could actually compete.
True Gentleman would let him pick up his glasses.
(very late new comment) yeah I stumbled onto this video and I gotta say compare to these guys my free games i play i would have no chance to go pro lol
😅
Didnt even know this was a thing. Had my heart pounding. Lol
I came from a hockey for you page
I saw a short about professional air hockey and was immediately: "Yep, Im gonna watch the shit out of this the next few weeks"
Welcome to our World!
How is this not on the level of Darts yet?
Because it's not a suitable for an audience. The puck moves so fast you don't see it when they shoot. Also, this get very repetitive after a while. :)
Both are dangerous in power
Never new they did pro air hockey until I came across one of these scrolling through shorts
I've learned about this being a real thing just today. This is cool
Welcome aboard!
How is posession determined after the ouck flies off the table? I cant seem to find a pattern. Sometimes it seems like it goes back to whoever had last controlled posession, but then other times it seems like it goes to the other person. But it doesnt alternate...
How does it work?
When a puck flies off, the player who gets possession is the one who made the last defensive strike on it. Whoever made the last offensive strike loses possession. Offensive and defensive strikes are determined by whether the mallet is moving forward (offensive) or sideways/backwards (defensive).
@@centerlineproairhockey sweet! Did not expect a reply, especially so quick. Thanks!
I pulled a groin at the darts regionals back in '93....so I can relate to the fellow in red.
We need slo mo replay! Nm i see it now
What size table are they playing on?
8' X 4' - which is the standard for competitive tables.
I'm sold on it 🔥
Until now, I never knew about this being a Pro sport!
Welcome to our world!
This is fucking awesome
That "right wall over is necessary in the modern era" 😂
Truer words have never been spoken 😂😂😂
If you send knucklebusters, the goals keep getting easier
That only works against beginners who don’t hold the mallet correct. 😎
I'm too invested after seeing a clip on yt shorts
Welcome to our world 😎
Awesome!
That’s right tough guy!
I caught this on the Ocho a while back.
I expected a trophy but it has a belt, even better
Dude i had no idea this was a thing
Onde existe este tipo de competição?
Este evento foi em Houston, Texas, nos Estados Unidos, mas há jogadores ativos em todo o mundo. Compartilhe os vídeos e saiba mais.
What are the game rules? Does anyone know?
We know :)
First person to 7 points wins a game.
😬😬😬
@@centerlineproairhockey :))
The crowd goes wild.
But honestly though.. This was pretty fun.
We agree :)
Not sure how I got here but I’m not mad
Holy shit I’m so invested. I wonder if Jacob could have held on if he kept his glasses (Jacob bias)
Welcome to our World!
He's clutching his right hamstring. Holy shit that's a crazy sport
there’s no way his hammy cramped up in a air hockey game💀💀💀💀
W comments all around bro 😂😂😂😂
Those who sometimes play at tournaments but never knew it was a professional sport
👇
I don’t know how I got here? But I’m never leaving. 💯💯
Welcome to our World!
Sooooo good. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Out here catching hammy pulls in the mean game of air hockey
Gotta hydrate! 😜
Holy smokes, so… only one more month until we get to see this again?!
The battle approaches!
First tennis now air hockey. Bring it on algorithm.
And....you are welcome 😂
True athletes right here their training routine must be intense
You have no idea! It’s rigorous beyond comprehension 🤪
awesome! Colin is the best
I couldn't believe there was a hamstring accident, in air hockey?!
We live in a wild wild world!
@@centerlineproairhockey I guess so! RUclips recommended me this lol but now I've seen it all lol great game though!
What a great point at 13:28!!!
Gotta stay hydrated
😂😂😂
“Awh dude, nah it’s the hammy!”
😂
It's on espn 8, the ocho.
So I’m 3 minutes into this and it seems like a parody video. But these guys are really talented so not 100% sure yet
lol I feel you. If you are new to our niche sport, I can see how it can give that vibe - especially with this early attempt at live streaming. More recent videos on our channel might give a bit different impression. Please check some of them out :)
Brought to you by ESPN-8 "The Ocho"
Actually we were on The Ocho. 😂
Can't remember Jacob's Dad's name, but I remember he won every national--- until he got married! Lol!.
I won one more after marriage :). Jacob was in my wife’s womb listening to the clack of the puck.
I watch this only to bet my friends at school because we have an air hockey table
No better reason to learn how to win than to crush your friends 🤣
They should make tables a bit wider and longer
When you say "world" championship, how many countries participated?
World championship means that anyone, from anywhere, can participate.
Whether there are contestants from 1 or 100 countries is irrelevant.
@@tappajaav undeniable. I'm just interested in how widespread this game is.
@@SteveDorrans Fair enough.
What do you do for a living? Oh I'm a professional air hockey commentator 😂
You cut me to the quick...😩
Who else got this randomly recommended, and initially thought the blue shirt dude was one of the competitors??
2:08 dang, dangerous spectator sport!!!
How sure are you that he wasn't? 😜
This is pretty cool but Foosball is the best and the top players don’t mess around.
foosball's the devil
Did my guy just f up his leg by air hockey😂
I feel like I can play at this level. Lol
m.ruclips.net/user/shortscBYERd8JgaI
What a brave tough man. To continue to play with a hammy injury. Man I thought Isiah Thomas playing and scoring over 20 points in one period on a broken ankle in NBA playoffs was something. MAN!!! Dude is a hero!
But, you enjoyed watching it. 🙂
My toxic trait is that I think I could do this. 😂
Punishments aren't given for "wrongthink" here :)
so what countries participated?
All countries but only Americans play it lol, I actually think there’s been 2 times in air hockey history where a non American won
Watched a Mark Rober Short. Figured I looked at a tournament game.
Interestingly, Mark Rober had decent tips for playing Air Hockey on his video.
the carpal tunnel is strong with this one
Did that dude just strain his hamstring playing air hockey?!?🤣🤣🤣
this is some real espn the ocho stuff.
Bro broke his glasses for nothing lol
….i wanna be apart of this how do i be apart of this

Where is he at I'm coming for the title.
It’s so weird I was suggested this. I was playing air hockey last night with my wife for the first time in five years. And I wondered what it’s like to be a champion at this game, and here’s the video. Wtf
We are waiting and watching 😀 - You are welcome!
