    Kaixo, lo que es increible o tal vez indignante, es que el mejor documental jamas hecho sobre los deportes vascos relacionados con la fuerza haya sido realizado por un extranjero, Rogue. Es decir, los extranjeros y parte del mundo de la fuerza mundial aprecian mas esta tradicion que los propios vascos y sus medios. Te recomiendo ver el documental que hizo Rogue hace unos pocos años sobre este mismo tema.
