The elemental 32 is definitely the best mass produced 32 panel bag available. They have a long break in period but they're once they're broken in you can definitely play with them as welll as any other bag.

well I was asking becouse I was going to order 50 thirty-two panels not sure yet if I wanted the glow in the dark or regular becouse it would be cool to be able to shread in the darkness of the night.I just wanted to know what you all thought before I spent $500USD for 50.But that will be later this summer probably really when I get the money for it I will order them becouse by then I will be good enough to move from a 8 panel sand bag to a 32 panel pelletbag.Thanks for the help see ya.

why order 50? are you starting a shop somewhere? no one NEEDS 50 footbags.

for 500 dollars, you could get something way better than 50 (machine made) footbags.

any footbag is something worth using. better than a hemp hack or crochet.

id use it, if i couldnt get anything better *cough*handstitched*cough*

have fun.

I would definetly spend $500 on different bags, rather than 50 all the same. They'll all be essentially the same bag, get some with character.

Maybe he has got some sort of fetish for Elementals. :P I'm just messing, try and get more of a variety it makes no sense to waist your money on fifty of them? It would also suck if you ordered them and you don't like 'em. Check out the Stitchers Contact thread, tons of people who make bags to buy from.

Sounds to me that you're ordering 50 32s so that you can start a small shop amongst friends? You can easily do that for freedomfootbags' Mr. Sandbags. They can be bought easily in bulk, instead of something as intimidating and fragile as a 32. And they're cheap.

Noble idea, but if you want to go 32 I guess it's suggested that you buy 32s for yourself when needed.
