Dont Learn Footbag

Post by Senor Grommet »

Its way too much trouble to learn an entirely new sport. Stick to what you already know and what you are good at. Dont waste my time.

Maybe it's reverse psychology? He says he doesn't think learning footbag is good and we all show everyone that it is. Hoorah for learning! And... and... hoorah for footbag!

You do understand the differene between pick-ups the move (toe>op in[dex]>same toe[del])and toe pck-ups right?
Other wise you shouldn't be asking this question.

I'll let someone else explain it...

i'll explain because i said it...
toe pickups are when you use your shoe(toe) to pick up the bag from the ground... usualy with hackysack players, this is common and since hackysack crochet bags are stronger, this is ok but with facile, (ultra suede light), this types of pickups can ruin your bag very quickly.

since hackysacks are like 1$-10$, and a good stitched 32 facile bag are like 20-50$, it sucks when someone destroys your bag...

Yeah its when people scrape the bag on the ground untill it rolls onto the toe and then flick it up (to lazy to bend over and pick it up). Never let anyone do that with my crochet bags let a lone my good bags.

It's too much trouble to learn a new sport? Sport isn't to show off in front of someone neither is sports first goal to make you fit. Sport is for fun! And if I feel good playing footbag then that's what I shall do.

My honest opinion, learning ANYTHING new is good. Especially footbag, since it deals with coordination AND physical ability.

...that's just my two cents.

Exactly! Man, when Vasek could only get 5 kicks and he was stuck. He should've just stopped and stuck with what he was good at. That way he wouldn't be wasting all our time by blowing our minds. :?

Sounds like faulty logic to me.

No, I don't play soccer. Yes, there are competitions. 4 years. Lots of practice.

HAHA! Just like when the science teachers tell you not to look directly at the burning magnesium! There's no good in doing so compared to playing footbag, but I sure fell for it. :wink:
