    My brother has been playing that for some time. In Sioux Falls, SD, no less. The way it sounded, it's a fairly well-known game.

    The play is a bit different than in the video; they play on a full-size soccer field, and use feet and front wheel for moving the ball around. For the most part they use old mountain bikes; some use fixed gears for forward/reverse like the guys in the video. Lots of fun to watch, but I've not played before.
