What do you bring to shred sessions?

Post by Zeke »

I was just wondering what ya'll bring, if anything, to your sessions. I tend to be a pack-rat and bring a backpack full of stuff.

-water bottle
-promo flyers
-sandbags for sale and as giveaways
-several kinds of footbags
-footbag repair kit that includes filler, faberic adhesive and straws
-digital camera w/ extra battery and memory sticks
-change of shoes and socks and/or shirt
-cell phone to help organize people (Dan mostly uses it to yell at me when I'm late :( )
-Cd's if I know someone is bringing a radio
-long piece of string and some form of colored tape to help make a 4 square court

I usually put all my junk off to the side except a few bags which i keep in my pocket.
edit* my "junk" is usually a gatorade, my camera+ accessories, and my shirt that i always take off. i NEVER shred with a shirt on

I used to be a pack rat, but I have toned down for ease of mobility.

I carry some bags, a towel for sweat, powerade, axe deodorant and flyers or other promotional materials.

-Camcorder (with extra tapes and batteries)
-Towel
-Lavers (but I wear them anyways unless it's wet out or something.)
-Shorts (the worst thing to forget! -- I wear them under my pants.....that's why you don't forget them!!!!!)
-A few bags
-Deodorant
-Water bottle
-Sometimes a tape or C.D. to lend to someone
-Brown dress socks

And I will need to invest in a bandana or something, 'cause the sweat is out of control!!!

Hey man i have an mp3 player too, what kind of speaker system do you use for yours? Ive been looking for something loud enough to use out in the street but portable enough to stick in my bag.

btw i try not to bring too much, wear pants over my shorts since my legs aint a pretty sight haha, bring bags in my pockets and my mp3 in my pocket, if im gonna bring a bag then i bring my crap speakers that u cant hear and ofcourse deoderant is my friend, especially if im seeing the misses after shred ;)
