This will be Net and Golf competition, and there will be both women's singles and doubles events. I especially need to know who needs floor space. We should have plenty but I'd like to hear from folks BEFORE they get here. So please pass the word to people in your clubs who are thinking of coming to contact me. Entry fees will be $15 for open and intermediate players. This will include a T-shirt, footbag, and raffle prize, homebrew (for those 21+), and some other munchie food. We have lots of great prizes and everyone should win. Players from Canada (both Vancouver and Montreal), Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, and Montana have confirmed their attendance and we expect to have a great event. Flying Clipper will also be opening their Alternative sports store here in Eugene by then so if you're passing through the area you should check it out (11th and Chambers). Hope everyone has a great time this weekend in Hermosa Beach, wish I could be there too. peace, becca From owner-footbag@eniac.yak.net Sat Apr 5 14:25:53 1997 Received: (from majordom@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id OAA05617 for footbag-outgoing; Sat, 5 Apr 1997 14:25:14 GMT Received: (from bin@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id OAA05613 for footbag@eniac.yak.net; Sat, 5 Apr 1997 14:25:12 GMT Received: from mike138@capecod.net () via =-=-=-=-=-= for footbag@majordomo.footbag.org (5610) Received: from Market.NET (Market.NET [140.174.206.2]) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) with ESMTP id OAA05608 for ; Sat, 5 Apr 1997 14:25:11 GMT Received: from mailhost.capecod.net (mailhost.capecod.net [204.255.214.5]) by Market.NET (8.7.6/8.7.3) with ESMTP id GAA19637 for ; Sat, 5 Apr 1997 06:25:46 -0800 Received: from default (mar47.capecod.net [205.230.14.47]) by mailhost.capecod.net (8.8.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id JAA07329 for ; Sat, 5 Apr 1997 09:25:19 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: <199704051425.JAA07329@mailhost.capecod.net> From: "Mike Keymont" To: "List Footbag" Subject: [footbag] ESPN Date: Sat, 29 Mar 1997 13:23:13 -0500 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Priority: 3 X-Mailer: Microsoft Internet Mail 4.70.1157 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-footbag@footbag.org Does anyone know when the Espn show will be on Eastern time?I missed the one in March.

Now I have been told time and time again that Rod Lavers are the ultimate freestyle shoe, and Super Ashes are decent if you can locate them. Well, I have no idea where to find the Le Coqs, and I have a wee problem with RLs. You see, I will only be investing in one pair of sneakers this summer, and I (call it a quirk) can't stand wearing white shoes...pretty petty, perhaps even a little vain I understand, but I just don't find white shoes appealing. On that note, can anyone recommend a good non-white freestyle shoe?? Even if it isn't up to Rod Laver standards, this is essentially for recreational use and just walking around campus.

The production company responsible for the filming of Unbelievable Sports referred me directly to ESPN's viewer information line. At this point, even ESPN is not sure of an air date for our program. If anyone is interested in doing further research, contact ESPN's viewer information line at 860-585-2000 and ask for details on show number 9 (containing the footbag segment) for the program Unbelievable Sports.

If you ask me, airwalks or converse are supposed to be pretty good for freestyle. There's also the choice of tennis shoes with a nylon mesh-type toe which tend to be okay. Personally, i found my Nike basketball shoes to be decent, until I got Lavers (which, might i add improved my game a hell of a lot!). Also, if you don't mind sandals, you CAN'T beat a pair of Tevas for freestyle. -- Kuch p.s.: Before you scrap the lavers all together, here's some things you should know: after the modifications, the mesh is relatively translucent, thus if you wear dark socks underneath, the shoes appear grey. Furthermore, you're likely to dirty up the shoes a bit, which also turn their colour somewhat greyish-brown. Not on that, but what's wrong with white shoes anyway?

I just saw a Pringles Potato Chips commercial where they had a group of people standing in a circle (it was done in "fast-cut" editing style) and someone kicked the Pringles can. They also juggled them, devil sticked them among other things. I will know for sure when we are completely into the "mainstream" of society when the next "clip-art" CD that I buy not only has images of skateboarders, but of footbag players as well. (I currently have over 20 CD's of artwork, and not one of them has a footbag or a footbag player in it). See ya!

In the last issue of Footbag World it stated in one of the articles that the 1996 Worlds would be on ESPN today. So, like any footbag fanatic I was up all morning waiting for it to air. I finally called the Footbag World Hotline to place an order and I found out the show was cancelled. Needless to say I was bummed. I feel like maybe I was the last to know. I'm going to check the Net now to see if there is anything about the cancellation. I've never seen a Footbag event, much less the Worlds.

This movie is an action/comedy filmed in Taiwan. Jackie Chan directed the movie and invented three strange games for the movie. One of them was the Chinese shuttlecock/ultimate/soccer game which players kicks and passes the shuttle cock with their feet and shoot for goals. The skill of the actors/stuntmen were amazing combining freestyle and net moves. Note that the movie came out @1982 when footbag net/freestyle was at its infancy, while the stuntmen in the movie exhibit much more advanced skills. I first saw this movie when I was ten years old in the theater. It was the first time I saw skilled kickers. Very inspiring. Hung p.s. you can probably find this movie in any Asian videostore. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: [footbag] Jackie Chan Shreds it up...

Contrary to any previous reports, the expanded freestyle format was well received by the players. >From the net players, I received best compliment a tournament director can get. "This turf is so flat." "This grass is so springy." "I don't have to play with my wrist protectors." All true. If you weren't there, you owe it to yourself to ask someone who was. One of the host hotels (the Sea Sprite) literally opens up to the beach. This is definitely one of the funnest stops on the footbag calendar. But enough chatter. How about some results?

Keep asking him when he is going to turn pro. 9. Double posting messages on the same list and talking over the discussion group when it should be private. 8. Spammers---grrrr. 7. Complain about the expensive prices for footbags, nets and Rod Lav's that are sold through the WFA. 6. Never look at his web site that he spends hours a day on. Then hear him tell you "that he is not bitching--well ok I am. 5. Tell him that he is wrong about something. 4. The Troxel's and Sean Wingert (people who put this list together). 3. Unscribe to the announce. 2. When explaining a new move do not use Jobs' notation. And the number one way to get Steve pissed at you 1. Ask him if there is a move called the paradox around the world. Doing or mentioning any of the above will result in a severe verbal and/or written lashing from Steve. Remember a happy overlord is a nice one. This list should be given to all new members who join, that way rookies can avoid his rath for non-compliant behavior. This list was provided to you as a public service announcement from the crack research team of TROXEL, TROXEL and WINGERT.

He says he is little dehydrated right now, even though he drank over a gallon of water and sports drinks. Gary feels relieved to have finally broken the singles record having been in the game for 17 years and having come within 140 kicks of the record 10 years ago (the record was under 10,000 back then). Gary formerly held the doubles one-pass and timed consecutive records and currently shares the doubles consecutive record with Tricia George (123,456).

It was a good day for footbag in vancouver. Today, Scott & Chard did a freestyle demo for an audience of about 100 people. The event was a bike show. After the bikers did their demo, Scott & Chard did a very creative routine using all the props of the bikers (cars, boxes, platforms etc). They climbed around the apparatus kicking the bag to one another. This routine was covered by a news crew also. There was also a net court set up for people to try. Inside the building, there were people selling stuff of all kinds. We also sold lots of footbags (represented by adidas) and me and Chard did demos for the crowd. It was a great hook to get people interested in the sport. Adidas was a major sponser of this event and the footbag show. Do lots of demos, it's great fun and spectators will understand the sport better.

I crashed on an eclipse and sprained my ankle (2nd-3rd degree) during spring break mind you. The beach isn't quite as fun on crutches but the hydro-codone made up for it. One monthof rehab ON TOP of my tibial stress fractures from symosiums. On thelast day of rehab the doc told me I could kick on hard surfaces again.So that day I went out and sprained my other ankle doing a pixiebutterfly. So I'm laid up off of kicking for a while. Hope to be better for our tournament in Auburn, AL in May. Best recoveries, Temporarily the gimp. Kev.

Thanks to all the Open singles players who played hard all day and got us through to finals by the end of the day. Sunday blessed us with sunshine and more fun and great play. We had 75 competitors total, 20 novice players, and 13 women. Players represented Vancouver and Montreal Canada, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, and Arizona. We had T.V. coverage Saturday and announcements over the radio. The U of O school paper will be doing an article also. Thanks to our sponsors for donating enough prizes for EVERYONE...

I figger I can speak for the Vancouver gang in saying that we all had a really really super kick-ass good time...and look forward to coming back again soon! Even the rain was fun in a wierd sort of way, as it made some things exceptionally hilarious...like sliding all the way under the net into the opponent's court, beautiful aerial shots followed by ignominous (sp?) ass-first splash down into hitherto unnoticed puddles, etc. etc. And it was warm enough not to matter anyways. Thank you Becca, Julie, Dave & Gator for those singles finals matches: They were intense & exciting to watch, and you all played so well despite how tired you must've been! And I figger Julie & Alexeis win top honours for being the most solid and scary-fun team to play that weekend. Am looking forward to a mixed doubles rematch in Seattle so y'all better be there! :-) I could go on & on about the amazing matches & memorable shots & , oh, you know, all the cool stuff... but I'm feeling mostly recovered now & thinking of heading out to ... yes, KICK some FOOTBAG !!!

I am a senior at michigan state majoring in bio-cheistry and freestyle footbag. I have been playing footbag for about 3 years now, but only seriously for about 8 months. I generally play freestyle by myself because it's hard to cooridinate times to play with people around here. anyway, I work in a genetics lab, and my professor is leaving for italy, and is hooking me up with jobs for next year and the summer, and . . . i may have a choice between seatle, and the san diego area for summer work, and i was wondering if there were many people to kick with in either place over the summer. I kinda want to go to seatle because thats where i want to go to grad school. Is there many people who play there? later _______________________________________________________________________________ Cameron D Kennedy |i had a best friend, but she | Michigan state 1668 E Grand river |dumped me, i have new one now, but| biochem apt 155 ph 337-9470 |he's a guy, i'm not gay, but if i | genetics E Lansing MI 48827 |was i'd be able to meet more women| footbag ______________________|_http://pilot.msu.edu/~kenned57/__|___________________ From owner-footbag@eniac.yak.net Fri Apr 25 08:40:54 1997 Received: (from majordom@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id IAA08466 for footbag-outgoing; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 08:40:54 GMT Received: (from bin@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id IAA08462 for footbag@eniac.yak.net; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 08:40:52 GMT Received: from aloe@vcn.bc.ca () via =-=-=-=-=-= for footbag@majordomo.footbag.org (8459) Received: from Market.NET (Market.NET [140.174.206.2]) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) with ESMTP id IAA08457 for ; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 08:40:52 GMT Received: from vcn.bc.ca ([207.102.64.2]) by Market.NET (8.7.6/8.7.3) with ESMTP id BAA00793 for ; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 01:41:29 -0700 Received: (from aloe@localhost) by vcn.bc.ca (8.8.5/8.8.5) id BAA20854; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 01:00:05 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 25 Apr 1997 00:59:59 -0700 (PDT) From: Juliet Pendray Subject: [footbag] A Question: the stats?

Actually, I'm about to announce a major change to the on-line club listings; but I'm not quite ready for that, so I'll just leave you wondering.. :-) But to answer your question, right now, as of this VERY moment (yes, it's almost 2am in California), there are: ** 245 clubs in 19 countries ** These are on my (new) club list (which isn't public yet). However, I'm sure a bunch of them are no longer active clubs; I'll be pruning the list soon, with the help of WFA. I'll also be merging in some clubs registered with the WFA but who aren't currently on-line. So the number is really probably pretty close to reality. Steve P.S. Yes, I'm working day and night fixing this stuff up; it's *almost* ready to go public. When I'm done, everyone will be able to edit their own club information on-line (just as we're doing with events)! It'll also make it almost trivial for me to generate stats on clubs (such as the summary above, which is always updated at the bottom of the list). Okay, so I didn't leave you wondering.. :-) From owner-footbag@eniac.yak.net Fri Apr 25 21:29:50 1997 Received: (from majordom@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id VAA02079 for footbag-outgoing; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 21:29:01 GMT Received: (from bin@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id VAA02075 for footbag@eniac.yak.net; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 21:28:59 GMT Received: from kenned57@pilot.msu.edu () via =-=-=-=-=-= for footbag@majordomo.footbag.org (2072) Received: from Market.NET (Market.NET [140.174.206.2]) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) with ESMTP id VAA02070 for ; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 21:28:59 GMT Received: from pilot19.cl.msu.edu (pilot19.cl.msu.edu [35.9.5.29]) by Market.NET (8.7.6/8.7.3) with ESMTP id OAA06215 for ; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 14:28:32 -0700 Received: (kenned57@localhost) by pilot19.cl.msu.edu (8.7.5/MSU-2.10) id RAA19664; Fri, 25 Apr 1997 17:28:31 -0400 Message-Id: <199704252128.RAA19664@pilot19.cl.msu.edu> Subject: [footbag] Re: my intro To: footbag@footbag.org Date: Fri, 25 Apr 1997 17:28:30 -0400 (EDT) From: "Cameron Dean Kennedy" In-Reply-To: from "Juliet Pendray" at Apr 25, 97 12:16:49 pm X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-footbag@footbag.org well, i am coming to california.(:~}> i found out today, that of the two professors i wanted to work with, the one in Seattle is on sabatical(sp?) in San Diego with the professor i wanted to work with there.

Kinda bummed because i really wanted to come to Seattle, sounds like a great place to learn net, and i have a few friends out there.Actually i have never heard of anyone who didn't like it there, but i here california is nice too. Juliet, Since i am all the way across the country, i will try to make it up to Vancouver B.C. too. I have never tried any net, infact i have only met one person here that even has a net, and he never wants to play. If i have time and funds i will definately try to get around vancouver, and seattle, and . .. . anyway, at least i am somewhat closer to worlds, i am quite sure i will make it there for a few days, before i head back to michigan. I will probably be in california sometime in mid may, early june, i don't know what sort of schedule the schools follow out there, but i am done next weekend. I wish i knew what school this guy teaches at, i just know it's a suburb type area of san diego. freestyle till it hurts, and then be amazed at how little you need those muscles outside of this sport. pixies, cameron k.

Whether you want them to or not. At one session of killer net play at Kitsilano Park I was chasing a fine set to the net. It was a crucial point and I was eagre to employ some agro for my spike. Unfortunately I jumped way too far, too fast. I had to adjust very quickly because the set was more than a foot too close tome. I had to drive my leg back in order to get a swing on the bag. Knee met chin, spike was a kill and I landed flat on my ass. The landing jarred the memory of knee meeting chin out of my mind, so I couldn't figure out why my chin was in pain. Until I reached up to feel it and noticed the blood running down my hand. A little first aid and a 10 minute time-out and I continued to play for the day. That night I went to the hospital and got 4 stitches where my knee had caught on my beard and ripped the flesh away in a second smile-like rip. Don't you remember that Julie?

It doesn't seem that these bags are so rare anymore. I was in the supermarket the other day and when I went to the cheap toy section what do I see? 32 panel footbags. They also had pretty cool 12 panels. I bought both just for a laugh. They are really cheap, only $1.69 each. And It shows. They are made out of some kind of vinyl material that just sucks. The 32 panel is as hard as a net bag. I cant imagine anyone freestyling with them.

"Real" 32-panel footbags should be on the retail market in the $7-10 range, but these extremely cheap, worthless, useless pieces of crap (which are not "footbags" by any definition of the term) that retail for $1.69 are much more appealing to the retailers. The problem with getting real footbags into the hands of the public is in convincing retail stores and chains to carry them. But the retailers, who have no real sense of what a "real" footbag is, can't understand why one bag costs them $.50, while the other may cost them upwards of $5.. These vinyl imitation footbags could have a serious negative impact on the availability of "real" footbags to the general public. Wherever we have a chance, we have to let people know that the cheap-o vinyl bags are NOT FOOTBAGS, and that there are several companies out there who sell excellent footbags for an extremely good price (though it can't compete with $1.69; it's a completely different market).

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. This may be a blessing in diguise. I have noticed smaller kids getting into footbag, at the "hacky-slacker" levels and below. But they don't care that its not facile. They don't care that it's 4 or 12 or 32 or 468 panels. They aren't interested. They play out of related interest to soccer, or emulating the slightly older posse. The fact that it's more viable to the retailers is cool too, because at the wal-mart/7-11 level it's always gonna *be* the cheap imitations. You see the glass half empty. The point is that everyone (I know this could be considered heresy in some countries) is not going to want to be a net champion, freestyler, consecutives-speed demon, or even a golfer. This sport just *isn't* for everyone. The fact of the matter is, spreading it on like good old marmalade is a good thing too. If the concept (familiarity) is becoming more widespread with the folks who are getting these cheap-o's (likely children from about 6-12, purchased by parents looking for a cheap "out") then there will be in a few years, not only more people playing, but more people friendly to the cause. [ie. hey, I remember that - my sister and I kicked one of those things around the yard/fire hydrant in our infancy, isn't that awesome that these people have extended the use of these things so far, specializing and everything.] This makes our directive easier, finding cameraderie among the up - and - coming in mainstream society as well as within the sport. And why would $1.69 net bags be bad? I could use a new net bag, I softened the heck out of mine yesterday at East Coast, I should have won the "best bruise" contest hands - down. >The problem with getting real footbags into the hands of the public is in >convincing retail stores and chains to carry them. But the retailers, >who have no real sense of what a "real" footbag is, can't understand why >one bag costs them $.50, while the other may cost them upwards of $5.. Why should they? They don't care. They won't care. They carry ripoffs of everything, from barbie dolls to pixie stix to xylophones. Most retailers and chains are interested in one thing. That thing is not easier to aquire by carrying the "top of the line". They want to see first hand if they can move the cheap stuff first, and fast. Then the time comes for approaching these stores with top-notch wares. Incidentally, the pharmacy across the street still has those 12-panel "kickers" made by wham-o that I mentioned a few months ago. They wouldn't see a reason to buy a dozen tangos, nor shoud they. >These vinyl imitation footbags could have a serious negative impact on the >availability of "real" footbags to the general public. Ain't no such thing as 'bad publicity'. >Wherever we have a chance, we have to let people know that the cheap-o >vinyl bags are NOT FOOTBAGS, and that there are several companies out there >who sell excellent footbags for an extremely good price (though it can't >compete with $1.69; it's a completely different market). Exactly. It's currently a market which requires more growth. Not that this sport hasn't had the heck promoted out of it already, but why do people keep coming up to me and asking "what are you doing" and "what is that thing" and "what's in it" and "Oh, are you guys gonna play 'leg-ball'? (thanx Toxic and Jim) I just want to emphasize the importance of awareness over availability. Most junior high school students (the perfect starting age, right?) know what hacky sack is, and the work Toby Robinson and Dave Hillis are doing currently is great exposure. But I found the WFA and consequently organized footbag, because I was lucky enough to see it existed, and then had the initiative to research it on my own. But most folks don't have the opportunity. Footbag is growing fast. I don't mind being one of a select 50,000 as it is. Don't worry, Steve - I'll make sure it gets into the olympics before you die. -JP From owner-footbag@eniac.yak.net Mon Apr 28 17:12:33 1997 Received: (from majordom@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id RAA13692 for footbag-outgoing; Mon, 28 Apr 1997 17:12:32 GMT Received: (from bin@localhost) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) id RAA13688 for footbag@eniac.yak.net; Mon, 28 Apr 1997 17:12:31 GMT Received: from aloe@vcn.bc.ca () via =-=-=-=-=-= for footbag@majordomo.footbag.org (13685) Received: from Market.NET (Market.NET [140.174.206.2]) (fnord) by eniac.yak.net (8.7.5/8.6.9) with ESMTP id RAA13683 for ; Mon, 28 Apr 1997 17:12:31 GMT Received: from vcn.bc.ca (opus.vcn.bc.ca [207.102.64.2]) by Market.NET (8.7.6/8.7.3) with ESMTP id KAA04504 for ; Mon, 28 Apr 1997 10:13:02 -0700 Received: (from aloe@localhost) by vcn.bc.ca (8.8.5/8.8.5) id KAA26291; Mon, 28 Apr 1997 10:12:57 -0700 (PDT) Date: Mon, 28 Apr 1997 10:12:53 -0700 (PDT) From: Juliet Pendray Subject: Re: [footbag] 32 panels everywhere To: footbag@footbag.org cc: aloe@vcn.bc.ca In-Reply-To: <19970428.044218.3718.10.dervish@juno.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-footbag@footbag.org Well, as long as they *are* kickable! The thing I hate is running into younger kids who are attempting to kick with rock-hard, rice-filled, crocheted bags, that are still the most commonly available bag around here. I've met parents who have bought their kids several of these bags, who are astonished to discover that a real footbag is actually kickable - even by them! Meanwhile, they've been looking on at their kids in sympathy for their attempt to master a skill that is apparently beyond them - not knowing that it was all just a case of really bad equipment. For the older kids its not such a problem, as they run them over with cars or squish them repeatedly. But the little kids seem to be into the colours and patterns of their bags, and try not to "mess up" the horrible things.
