Both of mine are Ameratta Fearless 55. The Left one has had a few baths and never gets put down. It see about 3 hours a day. The 2007 worlds changed me. I must get as good as I can get for 31yrs old. I only been doing this since Aug 18, 07. And I have to look at your trick guide to even know what I'm doing. But I can't stop. My wife calls it hacky-crack. I just won't stop. :lol:

P.S. I need more Mr. S's for the ebay. I have cash now!!!
My girlfriend thinks I'm a dork.............:lol:
But she loves me anyways.

I like richie bags cause well they are constantly the same. See yeah they might not be super pooofy panel bag but they are always play the same and break in the same and keep them selves together. See I could have like the best bag in the world but could I get it the same as I did. Same stitch and the same style exact. I am not say Richard is perfect. BUt he is pretty damn close. I love that he can do this sooo well.


BTW I will have a hybrid picture up soon. Get ready this is pretty big news, promise. This is a preview of what will be coming and might change the sport :]

Not to be jerk or anything, but anyone can achieve this level of stitching. I've achieved this. I can rest assure that all the bags that I make - all the colors, panel sizes, filler ratios, weight, feel, break-in expectancy - are completely the same. I could even argue down to stitch breadths.

The only problem that I, in particular, have is time expectancy. I don't like to be pressured to make a person a bag within 2-3 hours and then ship it out immediately. It's too much pressure on me, but Richie is just amazingly tolerant in this factor. I completely respect him for that.

I have got 7 bags from him in the last six weeks. Three of the bags are Fearless55's, and the others are custom colors n patterns. He did not get them out 2 or 3 hours. But he did get them out in a week. I praise him for this. I have got half x-mas shopping done 4 Da Boyz I hang with. I don't even need custom bags all the time. I just need a good bag for me or my friends to play with. Some stitchers tell you after the 1st of the year. Most I have seen have been under a week. Some may be in caught in customs. But an Abshire always shows up in a week, even if you order three!!!! :lol:

Rest assured, if I didn't have to concentrate in university and only had footbag and a solid day job to worry about, I would be crapping footbags.

2 more a910 footbags....I really like these bags. The mini is fun and it is not even broke-in. But I like to kick new bags!!! when I warm up. Then when they get broke-in they are fun to shred with too.

This is the new hybrid. The green is Facile and Amaretta is the purplish color.

THIS IS THE BEST BAG EVER lol.. i know all I talk about is Richies bags but this bag has the perfect set. It holds its shape like a facile bag so no floppies. But the amaretta has its softness and set. This bag is secret I believe. You can get them through richie or maybe a custom order through Daryl.

That hybrid thing is not anything new. I have been doing this for about 8 months now, and it does play very nicely.
