Mini Abshire v.s. Regular Abshire

I was just wondering why you suggest the soccerball pattern? I was going to get the shred star pattern sometime soon.

Thanks to the NEW Mini my game has dramatically improved. The feel is awesome. It is heavier than any bag I've ever seen, and it colapses flat just like all the others. The break-in time is like 1 day. I was bustin right away and could not believe how much the weight of this bag increases dex performance.

For real? You can break-in the new mini abshire in one day?
I would love to see that!

People, don't listen to him.

I would have to agree with ling, you seem awfully confident about the Abshire, and as the owner of a Mini, I would definitely disagree with you saying it breaks in one day.

I have seen new bags be very shredable after a day of use. I would not describe them as 'broken-in' but still good for freestyle. A well-stitched bag starting with very heavy fill can be sweet after just a little kicking. I generally overweight my new bags temporarily to accelerate break-in and bleed them back a little once the fabric and stitches have softened.

Heres a pic of my A910 from Richie:

Here it is about 2 weeks old. If you want to see it right out of the package check out the -new footbag thread-

I got my Mini Abshire about 3 months ago.

Would that be the 4 or 6 stitch?

That is indeed a nice collection of bags.

That's a cool collection man.

That would be the 6 stitch. He switched recently. I think he switched on the standards as well.
The A910 has a completely different stitch all together so I have no idea the break-in time of that bag.

I think it's 4 stiches, 'cause me and Posi Cole got our bags same day 3 months ago and mine has 4 stiches.
I even have a crappy quality picture of it:

FliexThis, have you ever tried any other pannel bags but Abshire?

This is a question for whoever can answer. I got my abshire maybe a month, month and a half ago. I was hoping I could use it to replace my dead sandman, but I've had no such luck. I've kicked it almost every day, and hand rolled it every day for hours at school. I believe the problem is the filler. I think the outside has broken in but the filler is still rolly. Any suggestions? Should I bleed some out of the bag? Id really hate to see my money go to waste.

idk about any other people but when it comes to abshire footbags im constantly dissapointed. loooong break in and in the mean time there are always damages to my bags that couldnt have been avoided like holes in panels or revealed stitches. idk i think im stickin with carols after i get mine.

Abshires take a really long time to break in. You will think it's broken in, but it just keeps getting nicer. In the mean time, try to be as careful as possible with it so its choice for as long as possible.

Ling, I think you have a 6 stitch. Almost positive actually.

see i think thasts part of the problem though. he keeps on changing and needing to improve whereas other stitchers have found their forte and have stuck with it and they're always the same sweet bag.
