A basic sandbag question...leaking sand.

Wizardvette · Post by **Wizardvette** » 17 Aug 2004 13:38

I recently set my Kango 32's aside, and started playing with sand bags. here's an obvious question...do these things leak sand regularly? I didn't spend much money for my sand bags, I picked up two Jesters at the mall. Should I simply buy a better bag?

um... not quite sure what sandbags your using... if you are reffering to the mr. sandmans from freedom footbags then they do leak sand but not very fast and reffilling them is very easy... on mr. sandmans there is one section that is glued together and you can easily pull it apart, fill it with more sand, and then super glue it back together... hope this helps.

Yes.

As far as sandbags go, you won't get anything better than a Mr. Sandbag.
Get them at Freedom Footbags.

So i desided to refill it, put a straw in it then thoght. ¿ where can i get sand¿ so i thoght id go to the playground an get some sand from the volleyball corut well it had a no truspassing sign just around the sand so ppl dont walk threw it i reached over an got some sand an took it to the macadum an started to fill my bag
the sand was to wet to go down the straw an buy the time i figared this out the cop was pulling up ( the police stastion is next to the park)
he said that i could get a 340$ fine for takeing the sand an a 500$ one for truspassing an he said that he should arrest me right on the spot i laghed an walked away tho an he yelled at me * dont u turn your back on me boy* but me an my friend just kept going. arent cops stupid

ok one- zachatree, that was a long and extreamly boring, useless and uninformative post that had little to do with the subject.
two- get a sandmaster, I have two and they never leak. You can get them at Galeans for like six bucks. However don't go to sandmaster.com, trust me

Being disrespectful to a police officer is ALWAYS a good idea

As for the thread, I agree with the crowd, freedomfootbags.com, or for some possibly cheaper prices, monsterhack.com

that was a pretty sick story zach...
any sandbag is good as long as its stitched well. Sand bags where the seam is kind of stitched wide will definately end up leaking some day. Never kick the sandbag while its wet and dirty, it totally bugs it up and will cause to leak.
