I've done something like that with the exercise ball in my basement. Nothing like that, though. It's cool concept.

I was having a lot of fun at Cornell with something similar to this. I was throwing the bag off of the Astroturf they had in there, I can't remember what i hit but I def hit torque and eggbeater. I also tried mid string slaps, but only hit butterflies out of that, hard to get a high set off of a mid string slap. anyway cool stuff, thx for the vid.

erik and i did that last year on his shred mats (destroying a brand new peng bag in the process) and hit some pretty cool shit out of it. ripped warrior and grave digger are 2 of the bigger ones i can remember...

Andrew, brutal! All that hard work and love just to be wasted using the bag in a totally unintended way.

You guys should say sorry.

Haha at first I thought Matt's comment was awesome and true, then I thought it was kinda an asshole thing to think, and then I realized that meant I was an asshole too for thinking that first. haha

AHAHAH! omfg that's rich

i retrospect, i feel as though i should've muted the sound in the clip, cuz well.. it sounds awful imo

lucky for all of u there's a volume meter to turn the volume up and down as you please.

and thanks for the responses... but really it was all chris' doing

I saw a lot of that this weekend out of Chad D and Richie Abshire. They throw the bag down on the mat and then hit whatever out of it. Pretty cool.

haha. Well, since i payed for it, i'm free to do what i want with it. Consider it stress testing. We now know that a peng bag can't handle being whipped against foam mats over 100 times. i'll have to buy more and figure out just how many times it can take.

As to the appology, we should also apologize to all the frame builders, who's bikes will never see a velodrome, while we're at it.

Good work Chris. Now I want to see couch-bumping ripwalk; stepping set > couch-bump > butterfly. Then I'll be impressed.
