Hey guy,
Foot fighters look just like other 32s. Anyways, I have some old 32s and I would be willing to sell one very cheaply to someone serious about freestyle who can't get their hands on a good bag.

PM me if you are interested.

Try using the search option next time, and type in Foot Fighter, you should be able to come up with your answers there.

Here is a review of a Foot Fighter by HenryG:
http://modified.ca/footbag/viewtopic.php?t=7952
HenryG wrote:Hey there, I received my Footfighter footbag a couple of days ago.

I thought since so many people are asking about them, and buying them, that i would tell about my experience with it so far. First off, I have a bag with yellow hexes and black pents, cool colors.

Material

Right when i took it out of the package i knew i LOVED this bag! The material is very soft, and it feels so nice to kick. When it hits the ground it barely makes a sound! This obviously makes for a fast break in, which my bag has done in 3 days! So the greatest things about the material are:

1. I think a little more grippy than facile
2. Thinner, therefore faster break in
3. quieter, or maybe thats just the filler. Hmm. either way it makes for good sneaky shred sessions.

Here is the only con i can find

1. Since it is a bit thinner than facile, it may end up dying earlier, but i dont think it will die a lot earlier.

Washing

Washing this bag is not particularly necessary, because in my experience with it, it does not play worse when dirty. I think you should wash it though to keep the material in good shape. Not washing brings holes and bad things.

pros

1. Washing is just like facile washing.
2. When dry it is tough, but after a second of hand massage it is rockin again!

cons

NONE


Weight and Size

I personally love the weight and size of these bags. Its about 37 grams, so a medium weight. I am not too find of the 45 +gram bags, so this suits me, but it may not suit you.

The size is about the same size as a small lonn, which is (i think) a shade bigger than a mini abshire. And since it never expands, it will stay this size! This also fits my needs as a freestyler, as i dont like the tiny little bags because they roll too much, but i need something slightly smaller than a normal sized bag so it FITS on my toe. (small feet)

Pros
1. perfect size
2. Good weight for me, maybe not others

Cons
1. See #2 in pros



Overall

This bag is great for New players and veterans alike. Since it break in quickly, it fits the needs of a new player right away. And once broken in, it is perfect for experienced shredders.


I thank Ellis for sending me one of these bags, and i thank FootFighters for putting the best, in my opinion, footbag on the market!

Here are some pictures of Foot Fighters that have been posted by your fellow modifiers (don't ask). Look for the Foot Fighter logo:

The foot fighter bags are really nice. i bought a couple at philly while i was there. they have a really short break in time which is nice, and a very nice weight. its the perfect beginer 32-panel bag. very affordable too

Then just tell her you`ll give up footbag and take up snowboarding instead. Then ask her if you could borrow $500 to buy a snowboard, $150 for snowpants, $60 for snow goggles, $180 for boots and bindings, and $500 every year for season lift tickets, and bus fare to get to the ski resort. Then ask her for money for the overpriced food at the ski lodge.

That's the best argument I've ever heard! Damn, I wish I would've thought of that when I was younger.
