Juice- Thanks... the picture makes it look uneven, but it really isn't. I don't know how that happened (maybe angle or when I put it down it crushed a little).

Jethro- Yeah they're made in China. They didn't have names when I looked on the tag; all it said was that they were made in China! :)... And yeah, the mini abshire is tiny. I like it... still getting used to it.

The mini is a very different bag to shred with and will promote a faster more aggressive style of freestyle. It may take a few weeks to mix your style with the mini style of play. Don't worry, once that has happened, your game will explode at a faster rate.Hope this helps,Richie

Yeah man, thanks for that. I'm just trying to get used to the feel of it... it's also my first 32, so I don't expect to be all that great with it anyways. And I'm not that great with my sandmen, haha. But yeah, it's a GREAT bag... it's designed very nicely and I like it a lot. I nick named it "Gershwin" for the jazz great George Gershwin... I decided to nick name all my 32's in the future after my favorite jazz greats. The next one I get will be purple/gold (not completely sure who I'll get it from yet) and I'm naming it "Sonny" after Sonny Rollins. So yeah, minis are great bags guys! (Sorry for the long-winded speech.)

It took me about a month to make the switch and just using minis. Now, moves that took more effort are in tune with my natural leg speed and seem to be easier which allow for the pursuit of bigger tricks and combos. It has made shred a whole new level of fun.Richie

I've been wondering, does Abshire refer to that color combo as the "Money Bag" simply because of it's color, or because it has proven to be greatly superior to other color combinations?

I think because of both reasons. I have heard that,the money bag colors don't look good,but actually they do.

The money bag is a great color combo and turns out to be a awesome shred bag. My mini money is so choice, I almost don't want anyone to shred with it until I remember that I can make more.It is a solid choice. Kinda dark, but the green will bring that inner peace to any shred game. The last part is just my opinion.Hope this helps,Richie

Olive on the hexes, Dark on the pents.

edit: I might be wrong. That's what looks most like it in the bag builder, but the regular green is unavailabe, so I couldn't check to see how it looks with regular green.

The money bag is dark green pents and green( laver green) and is a great bag. The green is not on the Blurryworld site yet, but will be soon. If you want to order a bag, pick the closest colors and include a memo requesting the money bag color combo. Hope this helps,Richie

Here is my new love.

He (perhaps she) is yet unamed. It's the first ever bag that Fred (from Paris) has ever mailed out.

This was in response to my post regarding needing a bag in the UK.

It is amazing. The stitching is so precise and uniform and the size and weight are perfect.

I am oh so effing happy with my new bag.
