Beaking in Bags?

Post by Chema »

I just got FIVE!!!! new Brad Mills bags, but I don't know how to break them in.
Any help?

EDIT: They are 32 panel, facile, and filled with sand.

What kind of footbags are these? Facile? 32 panels? 4 panels? Pellet filled, sand filled? I've never heard of them before, but most footbags can be broken in by gently kneeding them with your hands, and kicking them when you warm up for a session.

hours and hours of gently hand massage. Washing the facile everyone couple of days also helps speed up the breakin process

Oh no, I was hoping I'd be able to use them off the bat. That sucks.

Are there any special techniques I should use? how long should it take? And how should I wash my bags?

People have given some good suggestions in this sticky.
