made in amsterdam, i gave it to jay "the creator" boychuck

also made in amsterdam, the purple radiation on the way to helsinki and the blur one on the way back. the blur one is a instashred experiment, its instashred, but i dont like it. also its pretty big. i will keep the purple radiation, the blur is up for grabs

Wow, that picture of the amsterdam bag is awesome! Bag looks great too.

i had 4 bags sitting here since worlds 2008. never sold them. so i finally took them apart and restitched them after i realized that filler ratio and the need to break them in may be the reason for them to still be around.

i´m basiclly giving these away for 15€ (21$us) to finally get rid of them. they are now really soft and "mushy"

deadline? oh man, too much stress!

but nice result anyways!!!

yeah i hate stress when it comes to bag stitching. i like to do one a day, or maybe one in 2 days even, and now i had to sticth 2 every day

i´m just too lazy for that kind of stuff. i used the sweat shop technique for 2 of these, didnt make me faster, but i can see were this would go with some practise

But hey, it is making money from footbag, a true dream

Ok....
I think Tanja just made footbag stitching history:

92 Panel + 90 Spikes

why making normal bags if you can spike 92 panels way smaller than a golfball

we call it "shizzahm"

but then again, i received the bags almost a week before the final deadline

good job on all of these! we'll see how quickly we'll get used to the size, but it's definitely fun playing with them.

Shizzäm! Awesome bag. Cant wait for my 92 spike bag

Matthias thanks for the order again and have fun. They are really cool to play and after some time they shred just like regular bags. The weight may the one thing size have to adjust the most

It hit me recently that I can make a 70-panel bag based on the 20-panel design. Then again, I still need to stitch that 82-panel bag like I promised some time ago...

Nice work Tanja! Sweet 92. I love small bags.

Here's some bags I made recently. All filled with lead:

Bag on the left is Nick Polini's. Bag on the right is up for sale (made in the Pakistani method). Heavy bags, the one on the right with seed beads and lead.

Best bag ever made. Heavy, floppy and it keeps it's shape. Neon Lime ultrasuede soft pents and brown microsuede hexes. Went to K. Hogan of the Boston crew.

Big and beastly refurbished 32 made from a former 20-panel Elemental footbag. Made in the Pakistani way, hhhhhhhheavy. Not for sale. A gift for my best friend Lotus in Australia.

I made a couple more bags that I didn't upload pics yet. I'll try to post them this week. Stay tuned.

Oh sh.. I must just be copying everything I've seen on here.
Wasabi, that 20-into-32 looks sweet. I've actually made one the same! !Using the pieces from an elemental 20.
After you posted your last 'refurbished' elemental bag it gave me the idea to unstitch my 20panel elemental and remake it into a 32. I've had it finished for about 2 weeks, but have been holding out on the photo's.
I drew out new hex's onto them though, and used the normal method as opposed to attempting the original stitchers method.

I'll have to post up the pic's tonight now. I was thinking of calling them "EleMENTAL hybrid" because of the time taken to unstitch the crazy amount of knots in the pakistani bag.

BTW. I have finally gotten some USL ! Almost 2 whole yards in 16 colours given to me in exchange for a some fine footbags..
So Stay tuned for my first few Ultrasuede bags. Coming soon.

Ultrasuede soft dada bag. Two radiation symbols shown. 88.8 grams of lead shot. Super round, but it should break-in nice with all of the weight.

Bag on the far left has green mist hexes and an assortment of colors for pentagons, 55.5 grams of lead and poly. Middle bag has USS pents with burgundy and storm grey (discontinued color) hexes. 66.6 grams of lead and poly. Bag on the right is a simple red/cream white facile mini, 66.6 grams of lead and seed bead.

You are really getting the hang of the Paki style Way ... that red/cream bag looks lovely. Paki style is not so GayStyle [no offence to gays intended - taken from Angry Boys] when it is executed well people ... combination of aesthetic AND playability!

Colourful dada looks gorgeous too.

I can't wait for our trade ... I've got a couple of surprises up my sleeve

It just came in the mail today. I love it. Such an interesting new stitch method. I'm proud to add it to my collection. Very unique... But wait... all footbags are unique... this ones uniqu-er then.. Props, Waylon. Keep it up with this style.
