I always carry all my shred stuff wherever I go, when I go to school I have: Lavers, shorts, extra shirt, and footbags in my backpack. (No room for school books :lol: :lol: :lol: )

I don't wear my lavers around though, main reason being they aren't as comfortable to walk around in as my vans, and I don't get time to play in school except for gym class. In gym class I'll change into lavers and bust out some tricks.

I have 3 in my pockets, and 2 or 3in my backpack that i take to school.

My 32 stays in the left or right pocket, a sandbag in the back left pocket, and a sandmaster in my left or right pocket.

I wear my lavers to school alot. I have made a new stitching method that involves lacing the laces regularly 2 eyelets from the bottem of the shoe. Ill post a pic later.

I always carry at least one bag on me; usually my Sandmaster sandbag if I'm gonna run into a kicking situation with nonfootbaggers, and my 32 panel Raye bag, for if I kick with footbaggers. My 32 has ripped up a few weeks ago though, so I've only been carrying my Sandmaster around with me. I also wear my G6's as long as it isn't wet outside.

I try to carry the bag I am breaking in in my pocket as well as some of my newer bags that I've received to give them some love.

To my December exams, I had 10 bags with me for luck. These were my footbags with sentimental value and special attachment to. I did really well on my exams.

I bring all of my choice bags from a handful of stitchers (usually 9 32s and 2 Mr. Sandbags) with me everyday in my backpack. This may change once I begin stitching, of course. :wink: Usually, the 32s I want to break-in are in my coat pockets at all times, and the bags that are shred-ready I usually pull-out from my backpack. If not my backpack, the ones in my coat pockets. And as for bags for general hacky I usually whip out a Sandblade or spare Mr. Sandbag (regular or Facile).

The Red Lavers I have I generally use for walking shoes (which is a sin for Red Laver fanatics), but I occasionally shred pretty well in them if I'm motivated. I usually whip out G-units if the weather is fair and not wet. And occasionally, I wear the modded Twill Lavers that I have for whenever I can break them in (they're still pretty stiff because I modded out the twill layer from all sides and left the canvas that was underneath).

As for shred shorts, I have two which are red/white and black. I usually wear them under my jeans no problem. If ever I want to shred, I just take my pants off in public. NYC is wild like that. :wink:

Don't mind if i dig this thread out of the grave. :)

I don't carry a footbag around, just like i dont carry a soccer ball around. If i'm gonna demo footbag for someone, i'm gonna do it in shorts, and lavers - not my casual clothes. - I do keep an old pair of lavers in my car though, just incase. :wink:

i always carry one bag with me. Either my nicest 32 or my newest. I totally know what your saying cloaked i don't want to be asked to do a demo in casual clothes ever again, i think it makes footbag look stupid. It's hard to resist when people pester you a lot. I should stop bring a bag around then i will have no choice but to say no. I normaly carry my gunits in the car but thats just because i forget to bring them into my house.

I usually have all my bags on me. When I practice I use all my bags usually for a few minutes each keeping rotating until im done. I always wear my lavers, I used to try to keep them clean but they get dirty no matter what so screw it. I used to keep an extra pair of lavers and shorts in my bag.

Anyway basically, im always in lavers, always in a t shirt, always in shorts, always have a few footbags in my backpack and a bottle of water.

I always have 3 bags on me, normally my Footfighter, Hollybag, and Brinardbag. I also wear my shred shorts under my jeans and my shred shirt under my other shirt everyday. And I only wear my Lavers, unless I'm mowing the lawn. That way I'm always shred ready. :D

I'm always in my lavers, none of my other shoes are fit for footbagging. And I always keep my sandmaster and juice on me at all times. Other than that, I carry around my crocheted bag for casual kicking ( newbies who I won't risk ruining my better bags for ).

I kick every chance I get so, having the juice for solo kicking between classes ect and my sandmaster for groups. :D

yeah, my mom yelled at me once for bringing a footbag to church lol. i have it on me at all times. my lavers not so much, especially since they're starting to die, but i always carry a bag around,which is stupid because if i don't have lavers i can't shred, but just incase, i guess.

I just use the sandmaster for group kicking because it's a heavier bag, better for tighter circles ya' know? :P

i have too many footbags to carry all of them with me. i normally carry the one thats my main shred bag at the time, along with a couple unbroken-in ones.

i was wearing my goonits as my walkaround shoes... sometimes my climas... but now im just gonna wear normal shoes and carry a pair of shred shoes with me.

cant wear shred shorts under my pants. id look like im wearing a diaper.

I take it for granted that everyone will have a bag at a session. There have been a few instances where there would be none available between the first few people that show up and we all think, how the hell does this happen?
