Nice Grim :roll:

Is a pixie of nuclear set easier? hey are worth the same amount of adds.
Is a rev. swirling toe stall (nice trick max!) or ripwalk easier? The Swirling toe stall is 2 adds, ripwalk is 4. Hmm.

dropping the adds system is a terrible idea, and i also think adds based on anything else besides components would be useless.

adds are what set footbag apart from any other sports. and besides that would erradicate many terms/ lingo used in the sport along with the excitement that comes along with hitting a new 6.
There is always a bigger trick.

Whos to say how difficult a move is but how bout just having something to increase the difficulty of a move. eg. swirling toe stall 2 adds +2difficulty to make it 4 adds. You could have +1difficulty, +2, +3,+4 etc. I dunno doesnt sound to good but if u want the add system to show difficulty something like this would work.

ninja: I think that youre idea is imposible to application.
Hoow will be define how many dificult points should a move be? And they should describe it for every posible move, and they must make this objectively. This is just unreal.

Adding difficulty points is like admitting the add system is screwed, but not willing to change it.
