Besides footbag, I've also been into stone skipping since last summer. I'm on a prostoneskipping team which includes Russ Byars, the current Guinness world record holder (51 skips! - check out the clip on youtube -insane!). Russ even has a Topps card.

My current skipping best is in the low 40s. It takes some practice counting the skips but you get used to it after awhile. I'm hoping the balance and coordination I've been developing w/ footbag will also contribute to my skipping game. I plan on competing in the Pennsylvania state tournament this August and hope to make a serious run at the world record.
