Sounds good, as soon as I get my darn debit card I'm going to be all over one of these bags, some lavers, possibley Jordan Moirs new video and a present for the lady.

Well, a couple days ago i got a good 80 minutes of solid drilling in. Just working on getting my stalls dependable on both feet. I also think I need a dependable place to see how to do tricks. I have Kenny Shults tricks of the trade but i've heard it's a little outdated, the form and stuff. Plus the...

What about these lavers?

These Lavers are local and I'm trying to establish if they'd be alright for a beginner looking to up his game from his current shoe(my current shoe isn't half bad though). What can you tell me about these? Good, bad? Same as mesh or what? http://www.finishline.com/store/catalog/product.jsp?resetResu...

Anyone want to testify to the playability, durability and whatever else of these bags?

I'm in the market for a new one. These look pretty nice for the price. I want to know how that filler plays though. What about facile though?

Pretty sweet, it's been almost a year. I just picked up the footbag again and I'm going to be doing more of it. Maybe around this time of year I get footbag fever I don't know. But now I can do clippers on both feet, inside stalls and toe stalls very well on both feet. I'm still trying to get my rig...

Essential to every trick?? Nuts, doing it with my left is proving much more difficult than with my strong side, but that's to be expected. I was having a lot more fun today when I was just practicing my clippers and trying to learn the mirage. I guess I'm going to have to keep a light attitude and t...

I'm not 100% on this but I'm pretty sure it's facile. Most of the "professional" stitchers use facile to make bags. Plus, for the bag to cost 30$ it better be made of facile or stick to your foot and set exactly where you want it to evey time. And defy gravity.

I'm not sure but I can tell you from experience the material that's used to make the dirtbag is damn shitty. It's extremely stiff and the filler pretty much sucks. I've had mine for over a year and it has barely gotten any better. I ended up taking it apart, examining the filler and checking out the...

Damn you footbag!!#%%#*Frustration thread*(need motivating)

I've been footbagging for a few months off and on now. I have shoes that are pretty similar to the climacools and I use a trusty facile MR. I can do toe stalls consistently on both sides, I have inside stall on my right down like nothing and the inside stall on my left I can do decently. I have stro...

I just can't seem to do it consistently going horizontaly. I should just call it the "over the world" since that seems to be what's happening. It's really starting to piss me off too.

I have a facile and the guy I shred wtih uses the crushed panne and we switch up a lot. I like the facile because I think the fabric is a lot sturdier and when it fully breaks in it stalls about just as well. His also leaked quite a bit and became super floppy, like bad floppy. Mine hasn't leaked a ...

Yeah, I went with the Facile and I don't regret it. It has broken in well and I think it's better than the regular Mr. bag. My friend ordered a crushed panne MR and a Sandblaster and I like the facile better.

Well, I took a break for a while because I thought I should be doing something more constructive but that went down the shitter as usual. Thanks for the feedback though guys, I appreciate it. Where I stand now: I have a better grasp on the ATW with my right foot now, still not "schooled" but I'm get...

Man, I bet those teddy bags are better than the MR. in the stalling department. I practice stitching with the microsuede and that's some floppy-soft shit. Filled with fine sand and stitched right it probably stalls like a dough pizza. I like your bag designs too by the way, hopefully I get hooked fa...

Not too bad for your first bag. My first came out almost the same except I used pieces of cut up sock :? . My blind stitch is gradually improving. I'm using microsuede to make my bags now as a cheap alternative to facile. I actually sold my best bag for $1 the other day :x , actually my bro jacked i...

I'm pretty disappointed about my practice today. It was a half ass practice session at best. I went outside kicked it for a bit, practice some stalls, did shitty, got frustrated, hot and tired then went inside and lazed around and ate. I did this about 5 times throughout the lovely day at about 20-2...

Those don't look too bad, I like what you did with the toe box. I might have to give that a try and if it works well you might have a mod for shoes named after you :lol: . I hate adidas stan smiths by the way. I got these pair of adidas running shoes that have a monster inside stalling area. I feel ...

My hair is long and I can't see anything when I'm kicking. So I just wear a beanie, it gets hot but it sticks to your head like a glove.
