way too much fun, actually if you brake them in they are pretty good bags. i cant realy controll em, but i think felix hit some crazy runs with it... somewhat with whirlwind > somecrazy thing > anothercrazy thing... i couldt follow him, but they are good, also the crothced ones are little better than the sewn ones...

but for me personally they are too light and too big
come get your mÃcrÖ¶ bag today

well, i dont like any sandbags at all, so i dont like them. They make no noise, they arent as stallable as the freedoms. But other wise, they might be good. Although mine may not be broken in :?



i dont like any sandbags freedoms are better than revolutions

But yeah, my mirken 12 is my favorite

I think what he means is that the facile version of the Mr. Sandbag don't play as well as the regular crushed panne versions. In any case, though, he doesn't like sandbags whatsoever when compared to 32 panels with shot/pellet fill. :)

Cuddlebaggie on the left, Lewd bag #4 (made by me) in the middle. Lewd bag #3 on the right for size comparison.

My review on the Cuddlebaggie: Definitely a great beginner freestyle bag that can take a lot of abuse. I'm not so sure about its weight (50 grams) for newbies, but the transition to 32s will be comfortable I suppose. Compared to Mr. Sandbags the playability is just the same, if not much more comfortable. Broken in right from the start. Price is reasonable.

Lewd bag #4 has a bigger template compared to the the one I usually work with (Lewd bag #3). The stitching is a bit irregular compared to it, which is normal when trying new templates. Solid bag nonetheless. It will be given to Troy Erstling at Jersey Spike & Shred, because he's such a sweetheart. :o

That's not a new footfighter. The new ones have some updated logo on them. It's an "old" one. Then only person I know who has a new one is Jorden Moir. Not even mass sellers like Kolo have the new ones yet.

! i got my new peng kuddle bagie...

The stitching firstly, is beutiful. Second, the material really does look like something you would see on a stuffed animal, its nice. The color combo is really unique, i got baby blue and light pink. I think the filler has magical dust in it, cause i landed my first mirage with it... but seriously the filler is niccccce i dont think ill ever go back to using sand, but i do believe there might be some in the bag..im not sure. Lastly, and most importantly, it smels soooooooooo good... like candy or something... Its delicous

ok well im done... AWESOME BAG>woot

ill post a pic when i can
