Hah! Funny!

Pengpeng and I have stitched a few bags in this pattern, it is hard to make it pretty and playable, theirs look good actually. (appearance wise i mean)

I would be really surprised if adidas doesn't fuck them for stealing and selling the pattern.

Also, who the shit are Dragonfly footbags?? they look pretty slick and stuff but like.. why do none of us know them? who do they sell to? They clearly aren't top level bags, I guess they catch alot of the hackers that venture into the online world and trick them into thinking these are good.

They say about the bags.. "extremely supple so you can land all those 5 and 6 add tricks you only dream of. The Hurricane is filled with plastic pellets so you get enough bounce to keep your routine solid, but the supple fabric makes it very stallable."

I usually look for a good level of bounce to keep my routine solid.

10 dollar 32's? Interesting. I don't stitch, so I don't really know how well this has been put together. I do wonder why they have not been seen on modified before - or maybe they have.

Whateves, I have enough bags =p

well, im guessing they are the size of baseeballs and probably sand filled, i mean, if you like that... go for it.

The Phobia Sand is a professional level 32 panel sand-filled footbag. This bag is perfect for landing anything 6 add or more. We all know that anyone kicking a 32 panel sand doesn't even mess with anything less than 6 add. The Phobia is also available with plastic pellet filling.

lol...

I hear Felix Zenger made some good 32 sand filled bags so try not to be so inflexable!

Yeah, but read the paragraph.

speak of world cup, i just got this soccer ball

adidas star effect, its pretty fuckin cool, the whole thing has a holographic quality, and it breaks up light into colors, looks awesome rolling or spinning, love it. plus adidas balls just have the best feel anyway.

edit, maybe good for net bags? visibility....

I didn't want to sound mean if I was, I just wanted everyone to know sand isn't too bad

They could definitely be good bags, I wasn't saying that, but that paragraph is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever read about footbag.

You're right about that.

I bought 2 bags from dragonfly footbag for 56 dollars. Big mistake. These bags r shit don't buy them unless you like bags 3x size of golfball and as light as a feather. They also look like they r machine sewn and not hand sewn despite waht the website says.

The Paradox is our newest professional level footbag. This footbag is made of ultrasuede light, or facile, and is extremely supple so you can land all those 5 and 6 add tricks you only dream of. The Paradox is filled with plastic pellets so you get enough bounce to keep your routine solid, but the supple fabric makes it very stallable.

The Paradox is a custom Dragonfly footbags design, you won't find a footbag like this anywhere else in the world. If you are truly ready to take your game to the next level, you know what you have to do...

That is bullshit.

I bought two keychain bags from them. They're the size (if not smaller) of Juice Faciles. Good thing I only bought them for the sake of novelty, but still... I would like it to be the size of old Lonn or Carol bags.

I don't know who Dragon fly is but I can say that I have patterns for sizes up to and including juggling bags. I can fill them with glass, Sand, plastic, shot and anything combo fill. They do have a web master marketing forthem. If you do a search (Yahoo Google MSN) you will find them on the first page.

Good marketing Bad footbags.

But Who am I ????
