footbag anyone?

[wadejason]

so i noticed no one has a thread on this topic.

i know for a fact that most of you stoners have "hacked the sack" as they like to say in high school or maybe college, because theres something stereotypical about pot heads and hacky sack. whats always been real funny to me is that all these really fast sports like footbag, skateboarding, surfing, ect all attract stoners but if anyone actually go high and played these sports youd fail miserably...anyways i thought id ask around to see who kicks?

even id its just your typical hacky sack kicking around a circle, or off by yourself kicking to yourself or a friend. i use to be really good at just juggling it, talking 20-30 kicks most of the time. i think my all time record was in the 70s no joke. back in high school (im in jr college now, oh boy) sophmore year i like to think that i brought this game to my high school. some dont believe me but others who were there do. anyways i also got a lot of people interested in real frestyle footbaging which outside of the USA has made quite a name for itself. its no stoner hippy game like frisby golf or something, its fucking hardcore man. anyways theres this really famous guy in the footbag world that is known as Vasek Klouda, and this is what it has to say about him from wiki,

"Vasek Klouda is currently (2006) the reigning freestyle footbag champion of the world. Born in 1986, raised, and resident in Prague, in the Czech Republic, Vaclav Klouda started playing footbag when he was 13. He won his first Footbag World Championship in 2002 in San Francisco, beating the 2 time defending champion Ryan Mulroney in the most tightly contested finals ever. He completed a clean sweep by taking first place in the 3 major freestyle disciplines: 2 Minute Routines, Shred30, and Sick 3. Vasek has since successfully defended his title four times, in Prague in 2003, Montreal in 2004,in Helsinki in 2005, as well as at last year's Worlds in Frankfurt. His 5 consecutive World Titles is a record. Peter Irish is the only person to have won as many World Titles (5), however, Pete only managed to win 3 of them consecutively."

i just thought id share with you this video i found on youtube.com, that is video of him and friends really shreddin it up...prepare to be amazed.

i use to play a lot in jr. high. I don't play ne more tho....i might get the old sack out and hack it around a few times every once in a while. My all time high was 86....i use to be one of the best at our school....I like to think i was the second or third best. I usually always won

my friend and I used to chill on the corner by college campus for hours at a time between classes playing to pass the time. I think spending too much time on that crap is a waste of time though, might as well get good at the real stuff if ya gonna be spending that much time practicing.. Make millions instead of make youtube videos wearing short shorts...those shorts those guys were wearing in that video scared me... some of the videos of inho juggling impress me much more ;)

We used to play kill all the time. Everyone stand in a circle hackin' it up then when you feel ready kick it up into your hand and chuck as hard as you can at someone and if you hit them they are out. Last man standing, survival of the fittest, hippie style.
