some of my pesonal Footbag Collection......
I just ordered the Le Coqs, and I think they are going to be pretty nice. Here they are freshly cut, along with some of my Abshire Footbags. I use to think Le Coq Sportif was the best shoe out there for footbagging. The sole seems to be of much better material, and the mesh is pretty good as well, although not as easily modified these shoes will be as the earlier models....but it an't nothing a good set of scirrors won't cure........wel will get back with those mods, and my impression of the shoe in a few days.

1992 was the year of the Hacky Sack/Frisbee Festival down in Mission Beach, CA at Hamel's...where my whole life changed for the better....for I met Richie Abshire, and he was selling some nice Motion Zone Footbags,. We went to the World Championships, where I placed 37 over all, and Richie was just a few clicks down from me. Things were difference back then, not as much shredding like today. Anyway, I just wanted to post some of my Richie bags, so here ya go. I did have a lot of my bags stolen while down in Mission Beach one Summer, and I have given many of them away to my friends and family over the years as well. There is a lot of history here, and a good friendship. Thanks for all of the good times Richie....maybe by the time I am 40, I will be totally gultless....to tiltless??? Here is a bird's eye view of some of my Richie Bags.

My name is what??? My name is Slime Shady......
LMAO..... My name is Michael Adcock, and I live in Cardiff, CA 92007. I have been playing Footbag for the past 25 years....but I did take some time off due to injuries, school, and so on, but I can still shred pretty well for my age, lol.
I like the New Le Coq Sportifs. The insole sucks, but I just added a Spenco, and I cut and laced them last night. They sole is very durable, and the material is much better than it use to be. I will post my review of the Le Coq Sportifs in the next week or so, for it will take some time to break them in, and get use to them. They feel much better than my Lavers IMO. Ciao for now, Michael
