Do You Guys Bring Your Bags With You Everywhere?

Post by Timbag »

Hey, I am just curious really...


Do you guys bring your footbags and wear whatever you shread in(your lavers most likely) everywhere? Or is it like a special thing to go home, put the lavers on and shred??


I have started taking my bag with me everywhere and practicing whenever I get a chance.


thanks,

Tim.

I don't where my lavers except when I'm shredding. As for footbags, I bring my sandmaster everywhere, because thats the only footbag I don't care about losing.

Yeah, I think that is what I am going to do..

Take my bag that means the least to me, and bring that everywhere, knowing kids are gonna want to try kicking it and running the risk of it getting pretty wet or dirty or whatever?

When I get my Lavers, I will probably wear them everywhere except when I know I am going to go somewhere dirty.

i wear my lavers everywhere. Since i have bought my first footbag i dont think i have ever left the house without it. Even though i barely ever use it in school, i always have it with me. I always have at least one footbag on me no matter where i am, because i always shred wherever i am.

I have to stretch before I kick or I'll pull a muscle, and I sweat so much that kicking anytime isn't really an option. Also, I don't like how Lavers look for casual shoes, so for me, I set aside a two hour block during the day to suit up, stretch, kick, stretch, and shower.

i always have mine but i dont wear my lavers cause they are so small compared to my skate shoes. all my pants r a little bit long because my sizes are wiered and they hard to find so get as close to right size as i can so like my pants cover my lavers and i look wiered cause my clothes dont fit

I have 4 pairs of Lavers. 2 twill, 2 mesh.

I wear the twill to school. One pair of twill I wear 3 days of the week, the other pair, the respective 2. I switch every other day day.

I wear my pants over my shred shorts. I have 3 pairs of shorts-2 of which contain compression shorts. I wear the regular shorts every other day and the other two I wear and then wash on the remaining. This is of my 5 day school week.

During lunch I play footbag for 30 minutes. I disrobe in the locker bay and shred there. the locker bay = hallway with lockers :-). Everyone in the school is now used to the guy and his buddies taking their pants off in the hallway :-)

I play everyday, and always have a bag on me. Usually an extra that I'm currently stitching. I stitch during class too ;-)

I don't need to bring a footbag with me, I am footbag :lol:

I usually have 3 bags in my coat/pants pockets and then about 5 - 10 more in my backpack. I carry choice 32's, ones I am breaking in, mr sandbags and often a hacky sack, you never know what situation you'll be in.

I almost always wear lavers as walking shoes though I don't really shred in them, I love to hack in lavers though.

Before I leave any place, I make sure to mentally check off the four items that I know I should always have with me; my wallet, my keys, my cell phone, and a footbag. I also never leave the house without my lavers.

I carry a footbag everywhere with me. Sometimes 2. I wear my lavers most almost all the time because they're my only pair of wearable shoes, other than thongs. I still wear my torn up chuck taylors occasionally cause I love them :D

I used to carry bags around with me all the time and always where my footbag shoes but lately I've got really sick of being asked to demos for random strangers who have seen me play somewhere once in places where it's not really appropriate or when I don't feel like playing and so I tend to only take my stuff with me when I actually plan on playing.

I carry my current main shred bag with me wherever I go, and sleep with it at night. I'm constantly holding it. It's somewhat obsessive, I know. I used to wear my lavers everywhere, but as bulletproof as lavers are compared to most shoes, mine are starting to show signs of wear, so I've started wearing my other shoes out, which I can kinda do mild shred with anyway.

I have to wear dress shoes to work everyday, yeck! Still bring my sandmaster and my abshire in my pocket every where I go. I go out to the break area at work and shred every day. Everyone else goes out there to smoke, I have become quite the spectacle. They should see what I can do in shorts and lavers. I wish I could wear those t work.

I always have atleast 1 footbag in my pocket, usually my 2 32 panels. If I don't, I was really in a rush and sleepy when I left the house. As for shoes, I usually keep a pair of lavers & G6's in my car, and wear unmodded G6's casually, incase I feel like kicking some, represent :wink:

I wear my lavers everywhere. My red ones are still totally sweet and I have worn them for 2 years, but they look a little worn so I got some white/greens and I have worn them everywhere for the past few months. They look pretty dirty but when washed look great.

I have a bunch of 8panels in my bag to sell, always my best footbag in my pocket incase I need to do a demo (happens a lot these days). I also carry some sandmans and not so good 32panels in my bag.

Normally I have short shorts under my pants/long shorts when I go out, especially if i'm going to uni.

For a while I tried just wearing lavers and taking shorts when I knew I was going to shred, but 9 times out of 10 I would end up wanting to shred and have to do it in crap shoes and pants, which was frustrating.

Yes, I also take my street bag with me. I wouldn't carry my sweet Ilja around juts like that :wink:
As for Lavers, I take them off when I finish a shred. They are hard to get around here, ya know.

I've got a phobia that if I carry footbags around I'll eventually lose them.
The thing is that when I was starting and only had one bag (a bad 32) it accidentally dropped from my pocket as I was taking my bus card from there. Luckily, the next day I saw some younger boys kicking something and went to see what it was - my 32. I knew some of them so they gave it back.

So I only take bags with me if I'm going to play.
