I know, I'm so overdue to try something new :S gotta buckle down and pick something from the list soon

Thanks 😎

Yep, very similar, just a straight combination of components. We also use shorthand nicknames which can break down into technical names (which I talk about in the full video), and I think skateboarding has some of that as well? Like could a laser flip be named in a more technical way?

Thanks! You could get it with practice :) Feel free to send me a video to critique and I can help you get there.

Thanks for noticing!

Sorry dude I had to 😂❤

Lol this video is good

People have played hacky sack AND freestyle footbag since the 80s, hacky sack has just always been the more well known game: ua-cam.com/video/jEmrt-GfseU/v-deo.html

Technically always, but they're just different games under the same umbrella: hacky sack is the circle kicking game and freestyle footbag is what you see here.

Sure do! www.passbackfootbag.com/shoes has current availability and stats, video, etc. You might want to jump right to Quantums, but I like the TOMS for a lower-cost option.

@@PassBack what a great resource to have. Thank you!!!

Thanks, Happy, that's so nice! I certainly hope so :) I won't say that I'll never take any kind of money for this channel (Patreon, merch, donations, whatever) but for now I'm happy doing this as a passion project for the sport <3

Glad to hear! I think almost everything in the sport is really well-defined and simple on its own, but when you put 50 of those things together it gets 😵

Kenny Shults!! I got to play with him once at a local tourney, and it was crazier in person. I had the VHS of TotT1 and wore that thing out.

I'm forcing myself to choose a simple topic for the next video so it doesn't take me another 6 months.

I think I subconsciously made the video that my younger self would've wanted when he first started. I honestly don't remember how I learned most of this; probably just picked up everything over time by reading strings on modified, but I don't remember there being much formal explanations.

@@PassBack yeah, I was thinking about that when I was watching this. It definitely took a few years before I understood the lingo. Probably different Internet sources and the tricks of the trade videos but also in person with more experienced players.

For the dictionary? I don't know "swipes" or "cloud hopper" but I'll add the others (and I realize I'm missing things like Dragon and Flapper that I'll add too).

@@PassBack A swipe is clipping the foorbag with the inside or outside of your shoe really fast to make the hack spin upwards. I see it with people that spin without stopping. Idk, it's what I've always heard it called.

​@@sjfsr these are neat references but the language that he is using in the video is agreed upon by thousands of people competing around the world and I think that most of us don't know the words you're using to describe things. You could make a video of them to show us and maybe we have other names we would tell you or maybe we don't and that's exciting. But in general, hacky sack has lots of little regional naming conventions used in different places in the world but a more standard agreed upon naming system used globally. In this video there have been some bold moves too push and standardize some simplifications of some of the language and it's interesting and applaudible and I think it will stick (atwing for instance), but there's lots of other interesting stuff that has regional names or some stuff even that doesn't even have good names yet. Show us your moves! Cloud in our language often talks about calf muscle contacts, and some people do some little calf hits, maybe that's one thing you're talking about. Definitely a more rare element and there are many that he left out for simplicity. Pardon me jumping into reply, just wanted to speak from the community in a way that encourages you to show us and understand where he's coming from in the video :-)

I see a parasite

In terms of athleticism and skill, I think it would fit right in! But footbag needs to get waaaay more popular to meet the Olympic requirements for a new sport.

because I didn't do it with a banana
