Hey. Ive been hackin for a little while now with some friends, nothing real serious. Then one day I decided to do a search about footbags on the internet n I realized how advanced this sport really is. I'm Polish n I would love to get a polish footbag. I've seen footfighters n sum custom. Which would you recommend the most? Thnx.

for starting, ff's arent that great of an idea. a 4 panel would be best, but you can do what you want

best 4 panel is mr. sandbag from freedomfootbags.com

footfighters are amazing. hands down.

Hania bags are awesome. I highly recommend them. They're smaller than usual footbags though.

What skill level are you? what can you do?

If you can barely do any tricks, or if you can only do things like clippers or atw's, I recommend a Facile Mr.Sandbag.

If your higher skilled than that, footfighters are awesome, but try to get an older one, with the original filling.

Really though, I think the facile sandman is fine.

i recommend a "ales special" bag. hania makes them, for ales zelinka, they are small and heavy like somewhat, the way ales preffers them... but if you are just starting out... check in for a mr. sandman or ask some stichers to make you a decent low panel bag, i dont know if hania makes such abgs, but i think there is this guy called "cod" here on the board i think he also stiches, maybe he makes you one!

where do you live ? in poland ?

It seems like I should get a low panel bag, but what are the real advantages? Easier to stall i imagine.

No, I don't live in Poland. I was born there but now I live in Chicago.

It's nice to see how helpful and friendly all of you guys are.

Woah... really? Look up Jake Raye and buy a bag off of him! He makes 6 pannels you should look into them!

Yay Polish footbag players! Also Polish footbag-buyers. It's no surprise to me that you live in Chicago since there's such a big Polish population there. Keep in mind that in your footbag career you're probably going to own more than one bag, so if you decide to get a "starter bag" you can still get a Polish bag later on. I think you should get a Polish bag eventually because if nothing else, it's great to support people in a place you come from.

P.S. Have you met the Chicago kickers? You should.

I didn't find that! if anything, my Hania bag is bigger then most of bags I shred with... nice bag though. Super-fine stitching. Props

I also have another kind of Polish bag that was my favorite almost all winter. Michal Hadul (Hadas?) stitched it for me. Very nice stitching and I loved the filler in it. Perfect size too... he makes nice bags too

keep it real

woooaaaahhh.. I just found this topic! its so nice to read nice things about my bags, thanks guys!

I must have a Hania mini, Ben. They play really really good. Definitely one of my more heavier bags too.

Jumbojetski10 · Post by **Jumbojetski10** » 12 May 2006 15:03

I think I'm prolly gonna do what you guys are tellin me and get a low panel bag to start out with.
looks like the best polish bag is either the hania or the footfighter. Which one of these is easier to stall? Shorter break-in?

Stefan · Post by **Stefan** » 12 May 2006 15:47

I've played with a footfighter and it seemed really rolly, probably because it wasnt broken in yet and I'm not used to it. But if I were you I hear really goo things about the footfighter bag, so go with it if you choose a 32. If you want to start with somehting cheaper, less pannels, and easier to stall go with any sand filled bag.

RawSko · Post by **RawSko** » 13 May 2006 10:59

Footfighters fulfill thier fullest potetial of break-in-ability really quickly. Sadly, IMO they never trully break in properly. I'm not a big fan of FootFighters... they're not bad, and I know lots of people who love them, but I definately recomend to Hania first and foremost
