Whats gunna happen when theres too many people in need of bags, and not enough footbag sewers. Is there gunna be a way too mass produce them and actually be as good as hand-sewn bags?

I will stitch more bags. I can handle most of the orders right now. When the demand is greater than the supply, I will make the changes to keep it going. Don't worry, I'm not. Hope this helps,Richie

People will find a way. I trying to make some right now. So when the demand grows so will the interset in the sport, thus making more stichers.

but if people rush to start making bags, the new stitchers, won't the quality in bags drop?

Yes, AI, temporarily. However, every stitcher had to start from scratch sometime, eh? The more people starting to stitch, the more experienced stitchers after a time. While the new stitchers are learning, the experienced stitchers will still be around to provide bags while demand steadily increases, if that's what is happening theoretically.

On the topic, it's sweet to see new stitchers emerging. I got my brother into footbag, and he liked it a lot for a little while... but the thing he liked most was making footbags. He knows I love to shred and wanted to see some of his broken in, so he basically supplies me with high-quality 32 panel footbags whenever I need them. I should probably post a picture of one of them, even though I'm not sure he's still into stitching anymore. After I wash up some of my dirty bags I'll drop a picture in the new footbags section and make sure one or two of his are in there.

As the sport grows it only seems natural to me that new stitchers will emerge from the new shredders. It's already happening now, and there's no way ALL us new guys can suck.
