why can't butterfly get a Symposium add? I don't get why not.

about the planting thing--- I've hit dimwalk with both the plant and with out after the pixie, for me it just feels better to do it ripwalk style with the plant. I think it's not a "walk" if you don't plant. But don't get me wrong, both ways are cool and either can highlight a good run.

IMO, symple butter is just as easy as normal butter, so that might be the reason.

i dont think alot of people count dimwalk when you dont plant on the pixie,

i used to do that and someone laughed at me when i told them it was dimwalk. They said it was more like "ghettowalk"

this person is a VERY credible footbag player in the community, so i take his word for it, and just plant after most pixies

How do you keep the supporting leg for the clipper pointed inwards after doing the butterfly component in dimwalk? whenever I do this move the supporting leg and the stalling leg end up parallel which I've heard is bad form.

I need help getting my pixies to sail higher.
I used to be able to get them around my head so i could attempt phoenix which i usually dropped on the clipper stall. Anyway I quit shredding for a year or two and now i cant launch the bag high anymore and i cant remember the tips you fine folks gave me awhile back that helped me out.

Sometimes i would start with my foot in the air just to make it harder, now i cant even get it high enough to duck. Dont quit footbag guys...

Any tips on pixie launching, i cant think of the correct term.
