Hey , I don't freestyle much anymore and I don't play too much net or compete, so I plan to spend the entire week playing 4 square and or filming a little. So, when you think squares is gonna get it on?

what I have noticed and heard from others is that its just one of those games that will just be played for fun. I'm not a 100% sure if its going to be in comps or not, but I do know that its played at a lot of comps just for the hell of it.

I would think that enough people started playing, there'd be enough people to have a competition.

I heard there was doubles 9 square. That must have been a riot!

It was the best squared game I have ever participated in.

Do most people just use normal bags for 4-Square?

It really all depends on the person or group. Freestylers that play seem to like bags that are similar to their shred bags but not necessarily the footbags they shred with. It's not uncommon around here for new facile 32 panel bags to be tossed into a game of squares so that it can be broken in.

Hackers that have started playing seem to like just about anything; shitty crocheted bags, all types of sand/dirt filled bags, crappy Flying Clipper bags, and 32 panel freestyle bags.

The few net players I've played against seem willing to play with anything as well. Just about any other footbag they come across is way easier to control than a net bag. They're monster defenders when it comes to the much smaller 7 foot squares. Ugh, I hate playing against net players.

I've really grown to like Footfighters. Good weight and "pop" for power shots and easy to stall. Best of both worlds. Every so often we play with unconventional kicking objects just to make it interesting. Ultimately, it's up to you and what you want to kick with.

Those unconvential kicking objects games are the greatest.

I got my first win in a game of 4-square with a Beanie Baby. It was a cat I think. Pelvic thrust FTW!

Or that weird decaying yellow stuffed animal the size of a softball that we played with a bunch - was that Freddie's or something?

I wish I could find people willing to play.

You can easily teach the people around you to play. Turn them into 4square lovers

i once thought a whole bunch of my friends, who didn't even know how to hack, to being 4square monsters ... it was all we played for a couple of months during lunch and whenever we cut class.
