Dragonfly Footbags

So many times I pick up a footbag and kick it around thinking i’m playing some new and original sport. Well, on the American urban scene it is a pretty new sport. But I decided to do some more extensive research into the background and full history of the sport. Any footbag afficionado has heard of Mike Marshall and John Stalberger, but did you also know that Native American Indians played a version of hacky sack? I didn’t think so Read on…

(more…)

I posted a couple days ago about a few of our new footbags. We now have 46 different styles of footbags (hacky sacks) currently available. Here are a few of the coolest ones (and what makes them so cool):

• Assassin 32 Metal $26
  This might be the best freestyle footbag we have ever made. Ok, the Gumball 32 still holds that title. But this is one sweet freestyle bag. Made of super-soft, super-supple and already broken in facile. Filled with our unique metal/plastic combo filler for added weight and control. This bag is only for those serious about taking their game to the next level. It kicks well, sets true and is a cinch to stall. And (in usual Dragonfly Footbags fashion) we only have a small quantity of these on hand. Instead of trying to flood the market with a million footbags, we like to design and create small batches of custom bags. This means only about 25 other people in the world will have the same bag as you. Buy one before it’s too late!
• Hurricane 14 Metal $26
  This is one of the most random color combos we have ever made. Totally unique and we have a very short supply of these. Buy this and you will probably be the only shredder in the state with this sweet of a footbag.
• Random 14 Metal $26
  I’m not going to say anything about this one, figure it out for yourself.
• Wave 32 Sand $22
  The best sand bag we have ever made. Seriously, this bag rocks for stalling.

And there are still a lot of sweet new bags that I haven’t even mentioned.

Want a sand filled footbag? We have 15 totally different and unique designs.

Or maybe plastic is your thing. 12 of those available.

And if you are feeling rich, the Pro Series is a lineup of some of the best freestyle footbags in the world. They just cost a lot But for good reason, these bags are made of a fabric called Facile that costs $50 a yard. Dragonfly Footbags is the only place that you can quickly and easily buy a custom facile metal filled footbag. Or you could contact Abshire

Keep Shreddin!

We just got  a huge batch of sweet new footbags in today. Some are popular models that sold out quick before so we got a bunch more. And we have a couple sweet new designs that are still getting photographed and tested before we release them into the wild.

Here are the reruns:

• VERY POPULAR: Midnight 32 Metal Footbag
  This bag is one of our best sellers ever. It is a sweet all black/one red panel design and is filled with our super-secret extra custom crazy awesome filling! (okay it’s really just half metal beads, half plastic…no need to cut yours open when you get it). This bag is durable (black is our strongest fabric color) . This bag is affordable ($15 for a pro-level bag ain’t bad). And it looks sweet. Buy it. Now.
• Snowball 32 Panel Footbag (Hacky Sack if you prefer)
  This is one of the most unique footbags on the market. Or the most boring, you decide. It’s all white, plastic filled, and it’s on sale for $12 for a mucho limited time. Buy it.
• Whirl 6 Sand
  One of my favorite footbags (or Hacky Sack, whatever, geez! just pick a name and stick with it already!). Very popular bag, great for beginners because it’s cheap! But that definitely doesn’t make it suck, the Whirl 6 perfect for stalling tricks. Buy it.
• Dragon 32 (Facile Baby!)
  Red/Black 32 panel plastic filled Pro-Series footbag. What makes it Pro-Series? Well, other than the simple fact that it’s awesome, this bag is made of a fabric called Ultrasuede Light (or more commonly, facile). Facile is thinner than standard footbag material which makes this bag much easier to break in and oh so supple! But you gotta be careful, facile is sensitive. No toe pickups and try to keep it out of the dirt. A little TLC goes a long way with this baby. This is a very popular bag. It’s a bit more pricy at $26, but if you are ready to take your game to the next level, a few extra clams shouldn’t be a factor, right? Wow, that was a lot of commas. Anyways, Buy it now!
• Mirage 14 Plastic
  Our custom, unique 14 panel design in a sweet new color combo. Excellent mid-range bag. Buy it. Or don’t, I don’t care. Well ok I do. Please buy it? Just in case you can’t remember where the first two were, here’s another link you can buy it from.

And those are only a couple of the new hacky sack footbagging things we have available over at the footbag shop. We have a couple more designs that will be released over the next few days so stay tuned. Oh and one more quick thing, we are doing a small sponsorship thingie for Nathan Deschamps, an  incredible freestyler. And he is only 14. He designed a custom signature footbag that will be available for sale soon. It is unlike anything we have sold before and if I told you what it was…ok it’s all metal filling. It’s super heavy but some kickers like that. We’ll get some videos and pics up soon of Nathan.

And sorry for the lack of posts, it has been a crazy busy start of the year season. I’ll try to get more up here frequently.

thanks all!
