Left Clipper: Left side clipper or left foot clipper?

Post by Air »

So if there is a trick and description starts like this: "You set the bag from your left clipper..." Does that mean that you set the bag from your left foot clipper, or your left side clipper?

I'm confused.

Left foot for me too...

Seeing as when i was first learning, i never used my left clipper, i became accustomed to using "right clipper" which referred to (in my mind) my right footed clipper. So regardless if i'm wrong or not, i will continue with "left" as left foot, and "right" as right foot.

Then you're wrong! 8) Sorry, but all this does is lead to confusion. If someone tells you to hit a Left Clipper then you should really try and use your left foot.

probably left foot. I'm not sure, I don't hear many people say it. I would tend to call left parradon - left side parradon, rather than ending on the same foot.

I realise that I don't actually pay any attention to which actual side someone hits a move. If anyone says to me "hey Jeremy I just hit left clipper" - I'll respond saying "wow good work - is that your strong side?"

In footbag I have no left and right - I have a strong side and a flip side but things get confusing when you start mentioning lefts and rights. For example which side is your left ripwalk? Starting on your left foot or finishing on your left foot?
