Question

Post by kldfjlaksdj »

I have a question(obviously according to the title)

Is there a name for tricks hit out of a clipper? Like say I clipper set to legover(same as set leg). I'm just curious, because i dunno why. just cause i guess. I know if you clipper to a mirage, its paradox mirage(right?) so i was wondering if it was the same deal with legovers and what-not.

Thanx for the help!

Oh yeah, i searched for an answer to this, but wasnt able to come up with anything, so yeah :-P

The legover in question is Far Legover. I think there is a recent thread dealing with that so I won't explain it.

most times you'll add either paradox, far, or near. Near is when the component you're using is on the side of the body where the clipper was. So if you did a mirage with your support leg you'd have done clipper > near mirage. Far is the opposite-- when you do a component that's on the side of your body farther from the clipper, and "far" is applied when the move doesn't get paradox, which is sorta a tough thing to understand at first. There's a tutorial on footbag.org, which I'll link to here.

So to recap, near is when it's closer to the clipper, paradox and far are used for moves farther from the clipper. Hope that helps.
