I have one. It stalls well, but it's big and too floppy to really play with. Fun to mess around with it though.

I think they'd be really choice sandbags at 1 cm smaller diameter. They're a lot of fun to play with barefoot.

Acording to freedomfootbags, they are more durable but harder to set. I acuatly talk to Garrett Dryden online now and then.

I hear he stitches 32s. I'd like to see some of his craft posted on this forum. :)

Hey,
This is really cool that i am a topic of a forum room. I am very thankfull for everyone that has given me buisness, and who are looking to do buisness. I make 2,4,12,14,32 panel bags, yes my 4 panel is sold on freedomfootbags.com but if you want any of my others i sell them directly from me.

My bags are very very durable, the first bag i ever made, a 4panel that i made 2 years ago is still beeing shreded with to this very day. I use micro suede, and hight strenght thread to stich them. I fill them with my signature micro sand, and for the littler bags, i add an amount of buckshot "for weight". My 4 panle bag is a little hard to set with because i use a big pattern, because my 4panel bag is directed at the beginner that needs a bigger bag to try to proform some of the harder tricks. BUT if you order directly from me i can shrink the bag apon request. All i can say about my 12,14,32 panle bags is they are some of the easyest bags to stall but you dont loose much "if any" settability "is that a word".

If you have any questions about my bags, or if you just feel like given me a shout out, pm me, email me, or add on any of my messangers.

Thx again, and peace,

Garrett Dryden

yeha man i bought a dryden from freedom footbags...its a 4 panel and they are the most unique feeling bags EVER!
i like them because they are easy to stall, and you can shred without shoes really well with them....
other than that i wouldnt advise using them to prograss your gamem because i found that after using one for about a week it made my clippers horible when i tried to play with one of my older bags, but that may be just me. o_0

I bought The Dryden on Freedom Footbags. Big - Yes. "The Dryden" - Next Time I'm ordering a smaller Dryden through you. I freaking LOVE the texture and feel of the footbag. Everything is so easy with this bag.

DON'T BUY ONE DIRECTLY FROM HIM.

He will never send it.

I live less than 200 miles away from him, and as of Thursday, the bag is 2 months late.

I paid on the spot too. (I met him in person)

Did you try calling him? maybe he forgot, or it got lost in the mail...
Plain, with everything.

lol.

I made sure he sent this one. I gave him the money in person at a tournament, and I filled out a little application form.

Supposedly he's sending it on Monday.
