Footfighters!

Post by Genzu »

The Footfighter has been on the scene for a long time, and I've finally had a chance to do some serious product testing on one... Results:

I like it very much.

So much so that I've decided to start carrying them at the Freedom Footbags Shred Shop...

Here's a look at the bags:

Enjoy :D

I play outside a lot. My Abshire mini I got from you lasted about 6 months. At this point, it just died, but it lived a good life. Its completely covered in fabric glue. I must have fixed about 100 holes in it.

That said, should I ever play with a footfighter on concrete?

The only drawback to this material is that it is not quite as durable as the facile bags sold on our site like the Abshire and the Joshua Raye
You probably won't get 6 months out of it like your Abshire.

I've been testing out one for a while now... Let me see... I guess over a month now, used an average of 1.5 hours a day, 95% on indoor carpet. It's got zero holes thus far, but is paper thin. I would have to say that any concrete usage would tend to shorten the life. I do 100% toe-ups, but then again, I do it very gently, so I wouldn't recommend that either.

I've never toed any of my bags up. I always bend over.

Problem is, I drop the bag a lot and it undoubtedly gets worn out eventually. Maybe I'll use the Raye I just ordered outside, and a footfighter inside.
