the second one is basically random combo of three colors. all the bags are about 70 grams, more or less. the green one is just about broken in ( after an extreme hand kneeding/"raping" session ) its soft and super mushy. yes i do know you should lighty kneed and kick a bag to break it in, but i wanted to test it duribility also. No leaks, its pretty solid.

Cool. I like how random that color pattern is. Very appealing.

Just a final thought: isn't 70 grams a bit much? My feet and legs would die from shredding with a bag that heavy. :lol:

I like them really heavy for some reason, it seems like they break in quicker and i can feel them really easy on my foot.

bags have been getting progressively heavier and smaller in recent years-

i can remember 6 or 7 months ago even the standard was around 45 or so. seems to be anywhere between 50 and 60 nowadays. ive got a bag at 73, a bag at 60, a bag at 55 and a (leaky) 45. i love heavy bags but have trouble fitting enough filler into the little tiny bags i make ;)

lots of bags are still made at a little larger than golfball size... which seems to have been replaced by a standard of at or just less than golfball size... ive always liked around ping pong sized bags!!! if you want to know my reasonsing behind that its quite a bit more complicated than you'd think, but everyones got their own reasons for shtuff. mebbe this post doesnt belong here....

I haven't done proper experiments, but i think they get holes quicker as well. That pink, black and yellow bag looks very cool btw.

here's another bag i just finished:

And this is it after half an hour finger rolling and 1 hour in a hacky circle:

It already plays pretty well by most peoples standards i think. Not that pretty though.

I'm thinking about something... and there is a very high chance it has something to do with footbag.

I had a bag stitched by o'wheel and the stitching looked very similar to that, it broke in after 2 sessions :D Unfortunately it died after 2 weeks... :? The fabric seemed very thin.

Yeah, i know about that. I don't think it was made from ultrasuede. I kind of know what you mean when you say they look similar, but it's not.

Thanks. It's sets pretty good. The people i shred with seem to favour stickyness though, so it's hard to know for sure.
