Strings

Post by 420FootBager »

I've been baging for about 7 months now but only seriosly for 4...
I have my stalls down perfect 8) I also got all the ways of hittin the bag (and a few more) totaly perfect...
I now can clipper pretty well and occasionly pull of something fancy.
Up until last week all I did was drill all the time but about a week ago I started trying to put togeather some strings...

My question is what exactly constitutes a string? If I do all the stalls I know on both feet then do a head stall to a toe stale and seal it would that be considared a string? I think it look pretty cool the way I put it all together...

It doesnt matter how small the trick is. Strings are just linking of moves but I think ppl generally think of strings as 10 moves linked usually. You should start learning dexing tricks like mirage and leg over

stringing is just sorta linking together all the different things you can do. try to do it as smoothly as possible and just play! there are no real rules, just have fun pulling the tricks you like and have fun doing.

Enjoy footbag!

Tom doesn't know what he's talking about.

A string is Fog>smog>dimwalk repeat. Anything else is just rubbish.

Strings, any linking of any amount of tricks any amount of size...

1 trick is not a string
2 is...

Whoa! What did i do?

I don't consider basic kicks a string. I don't consider consecutive tricks (in a record attempt) a string. If you can hit 100 mirages, you're tiltless record isn't 100 (for a string that is). I don't consider even a two move drill repeated a string (Parkwalk > blur (rpt))...

Thats my opinion.
