New to footbag looking for a footbag.
I just got interested in it when my friend started showing me videos on youtube. I use a juggaling bag that I just took some of the beads out of. Looking to buy a good begginer footbag. I was thinking a Duncan footbag or a Mr.Sandbag. Suggestions?

when you've gotten good with the Mr Sandman (or sandbag or whatever - The freedomfootbags.com model), it will be time to upgrade to a hand-stitched bag. In fact, if you've got an extra $30 or so kicking around (no pun intended), they are often quite good for beginners, as long as your stitcher knows that you are a beginner, and they don't make you a bag that is too rolly.

It's not a terrible move on your part, but there are better choices. You can get a hand-stitched footbag for just a few more dollars than that from a stitcher on this site, and it will probably play a tonne better than a dragonfly bag. my experience with dragonfly bags has been that they're not that great.

been playin with my bag for a while now and i love it, i stalls pretty easy, now i have broken it in, though everyone is saying go for metal so i think in a few weeks im going to get a custom one from MC or get a holly bag that is as soon as i have paid for my driving.
also depending on wether they accept my pattern i want for my bag.
i have a vision for a perfect bag gentlman, im hoping it can be made!!! lol
