Intro...

Post by caseyweed »

Hi, My name's Casey. I've been footbagging for about 5 months now and browsing these boards for about 3. I finally signed up. Just wanted to properly introduce myself.

I can do all the basics. ATW, Legover, Mirage, Illusion, Butterfly, Pixie, Ducking Legover, Ducking/Diving Butterfly, Weaving/Zulu Mirage, Zulu Illusion. Those are about my proudest moments so far heheheheheh.

I hit Symp Mirage yesterday and today. It was nice. Real nice. I feel like I'm making some great progress.

Sounds like your off to a good start for only 5 months of play. I hope you stick with, because it only gets better.

I can't hit clippers very well....but I can hit butterflies pretty consistently. But I've been drilling my clippers pretty hard lately. I think it'll improve when I get some Lavers or some G-Units.

Definately. I was using skate shoes, but two weeks with lavers will up your game so much.

Pardon my ignorance but what's a legover? I see people write it all the time but couldn't find it in the trick section on footbag.org... Anyways, good job man, I hope to be hitting that kind of stuff in a few months, right now I'm just working on dialing in some simpler stuff.

Like an ATW. Say you stall on the Left Toe. From there set the bag about waist high if not lower. As you set, hop off the right leg and circle your leg around the bag from out to in and delay on the right toe.

Sorry to make it sound so complicated but I really couldn't think of any simpler way to put it. I'm sure someone will.

Actually I figured it out today, thanks to footbag.org AND real life shredding. I've actually been trying to hit those lately, they're pretty smooth.
