Looks nice; what do you fill your bags with, if you dont mind my asking?

I always want to buy new bags but im hesitant because, while they all look great, the filler really makes the bag. Id want to know that your filler would be to my liking before i bought one. Anyway, keep stitching! Product looks great.

Thnaks for the comment!

I fill my bags with steel shot, plastic pellets seed beads, and very small smooth pebbles.

Alright it took me forever to get these pictures up, but here are a few pics of my bag collection:

The footbags I took to GRASS, around a GRASS flyer. Chris's Patty bag is also in this shot (blue/pink, in between my Lonn and a red/grey sandman).

One of the New York postcards I got for my friends, surrounded by the bags I took to GRASS. Chris's Patty bag is again in this shot.

All my current 32s, in the order that I got them. Gershwin (Mini Abshire), Sonny (Lonn), Cloud Nine (Footfighter), and my Mosher bag which doesn't have a name yet but will soon.

second that...and what the hack is this green and purple thing?????????

Commodore · Post by **Commodore** » 04 Jul 2005 08:05

I think that green and purple thing is a takraw ball.

Zeke · Post by **Zeke** » 04 Jul 2005 09:55

That orange thing is made of a soft rubber. It's a lot of fun to kick around, similar to kicking around a koosh ball. The green and purple object seems to be made of woven plastic with a neoprene cover. It plays very similar to a takraw but with just a little less bounce. I have no idea what they are intended for but they both make for fun kicking objects. You can check out my collection gallery to see the packaging.

Thanks, but my collection pales in comparison to Richie's... so many luscious 32's. I tend to collect odd footbags. I love the variety of it all

but serious...i like this thing...were do u get this from?

Zeke · Post by **Zeke** » 05 Jul 2005 08:56

This thing? I got it at an arts and crafts store called Michaels while I was looking for sead beads to refill my footbags. I honestly don't know what it's really made for but its really fun to freestyle with. Kicking it around seems to break off the sead beeds.

It's made of this long thin strip of nylon. Short pieces of string with seed beads thread though them hang off along one edge of the strip, then it was wrapped around a small 'I' shaped piece of carboard with the end fastened with staples.

As you can imagine it's not very durable so I bust it out every now and then and we try and see who can hit the coolest trick with it.
