Right now the bag is about 1/2 broken in. The material feels really soft and cushioned, so i'm very happy with this style.

The bag is let down by the fill. I think an imbalance in the densities of the fill is causing the bag to have kind of a post-landing-shudder. I have some ideas of how to fix it though.

I. Want. One.

Fuck. Shit. Damn. The whole shebang. Jaysus Toby. Much props. I think you might usurp Tom's bags for sure, or even Ilja's for that matter. :wink: j/k :lol:

Frankly, his bags look nicer than mine right now.

But also, it should be noted that you can tell about.. 2% about how the bag will turn out from a picture.

Though it was an ILJAbag that looks so delicious that you feel yourself like one of the Pavlov's dogs? :P

That's true. Feeling the bag and looking at the stitchwork much more indepthly is important, as is the use of the filler. Toby's bags are in need of testing! :P

Thanks you guys, it's great to get such a good response for the footbags i've made.

Recently, i've put alot of effort into design and finding ways to get my stitching as neat as possible. I'm now putting all my effort into getting the fill and the amount of cushioning right.

So i won't be sending them out just yet.

Heh it's a good thing I can just steal them at uni :D.

Toby's 8th bag is red and orange and it is my favourite color combo right now :), i'll get it back to him so he can get photos for the forum.

I have been shreding with it, and it just does'nt perform as well as my other bags. When it lands on my foot the filler jolts to the bottom of the bag and makes it roll slightly which is enough to ruin the next set. Toby just needs to get the bag to stick better when it lands, then they will be perfect!
