Old / Dead Footbags Thread

Post by jrstubs »

Post your dead or dying footbags here, any footbag that's reached the end of its poor little footbag career or has been honorably discharged from service.

If youve got a pic of the footbag in its younger days, post that for comparison!

(Sam Mcaulay Helped me out with the wording, actually every word except the title :wink: )

The one on the left isn't bad at all. The thread stretched and the bag had low gather. Sadly though, this bag is now un-usable. I may try to regather it when I get some time.

The other had a small accident with a vacuum cleaner. The bag was one of my first facile ones so it was odd-shaped to begin with.

Brand new Maki bag from Peng. Picture taken 1.06.2005. It became hard as a rock and holey due to filler issues and my poor care for it.

My #6. I still play with it sometimes, but it's definitely retired due to a massive amount of pilling and holes. One of the best bags I've ever made. It was made with Paizely and Saffron, and the Paizely facile I used was way too thin; just a tad bit stronger than Aqua I guess. It broke in fast, but died fast as well. RIP.

"Footbag can be pretty frustrating when it's supposed to be fun. I was partly driven by this forum - practice, practice, practice... As that is true, I think someone can be too focused on progressing and training that they miss the fun aspect of it." - Bander87
