Mr.Sandbags

Post by DanielWhittle »

I recieved 2 new Mr.Sandbags in the post on the Saturday just gone.

When i Shred with them they seem very silky and slippy when on your foot. I remember my last one (a knofler Mr.Sandbag) being less slippy, but i suppose that was after i had played with it for a while.

The slippery velvet-like material is slipping sometimes and making it a little harder to do stalls.

ok? Was this review for us or asking a question? I didn't seem to catch the point of the post.

Sandbags, brand new, are a bit slippery if you use the sole of the shoe to assist in your clipper. Fix yo clippa ;-)

Sorry, now that i look back I didn't really make it clear what the purpose of this post was.

I was posting to see what other people thought about them being slippy when new and if they had this problem like I did.

What was that about clippers i didn't understand what you meant?

Every bag is a bit slippery to stall when you first get it

It's better to stall it on the mesh-less slippery

i just lost my mr. sandbag in my school library and idk where it went :(
And the bag is always a little bit slippery when you first get it, but it doesnt really make that big of a difference. When they break in theyr just awesome, ive had 3.

Yeh you guys are right, when my last one got worked in and broken in it was so awesome. Unfortunately i gave it away to my best friend in hope that he would start freestyle. I think he's gonna start playing though so its all good.

Leather lavers are slippery.
It takes a year to wear the material down and then it's not so slick and velvety. It ends up being rough and grippy it just takes forever.

Sell me your Mr. Sandman please. They are very rare now!
