I don't have a pic yet, but I have an AWESOME story.

So, I had two crappy exams today, and then a jazz performance. Then I get home and I expected to be grounded. But I walk in my room and there's a brown envelope on my bed addressed to me from Richard Abshire. I was like, "Whoa... what the hell...?" and I opened it, really excitedly, and it is a Blue/White/Red Mini Abshire. My first thought is, "Hey, maybe my parents got it for me for graduation, phat!" so I go in and ask them if they got it. They say no. So I'm freaking out like "Dude this is a mistake, this shouldn't be mine." but I keep looking at the envelope, and it's addressed to me. So I call my friend Gabe up and leave a message on his machine that's something like "Dude... you'll never guess what happened. I got home from the performance, and there's a Mini Abshire waiting on my bed for me. It's so sweet... I can't wait till you see it." And so then I get online and tell a few friends and we're trying to figure it out, when Gabe calls back and he's like "Dude that's so awesome." and I'm like "Yeah it's so perfect!" and he goes "Yeah, I got it for you." and I get silent and then I was like "It was YOU?" and he explains how I had been talking about wanting one, so he went and ordered one about a month ago for me as a surprise/graduation present for knowing him for 6 years, and he wanted me to have one. I just thanked him multiple times. It's so nice. I tried to stall it on my flipside toe once, and it just completely rolled off. It's my first 32 panel beaded; I've been using Mr. Sandmans. Wow I'm just so excited to get this broken in and stuff. Anyways, I just thought I'd share my excitement. Thanks Gabe, thanks Richie!

Yeah, cool story.

The Minis take a while to break in, but once they do, they perform.

I bought this bag at the Footjam tournament from a Polish Guy who
promotes Footbag in Poland (I'm sorry I forgot your name!!), the
website is www.footbag.com.pl ...

Anyway, it's called Sorbibag or Sorbarg Bag, and I still don't know
the name of the Stitcher. It's synthetic suede but plays like facile,
it cost only 11 Euros, and it was already fully broken in when I bought
it. The bag is awesome. Nice weight, quite round and super stallable.
Thumbs up!

These 3 bags were given to me by James Hermey. Two of these I'm giving away at the WV Jam. I haven't had the chance to really break the orange one in (I'm keeping it :wink: ), but these seem to really well stitched. They are golf ball size and I'm excited to see how mine turns out.

I have that same abshire color combo in a mini. It took a lil while to break in, but the colors didn't stretch much and the bag stayed small.
