Hey everyone, new member to the football community. I've looked through different threads and I'm happy with what I've read so far. I've recently been looking into investing some money into a pair of Rod Lavers, but I can't find any, well, cool designs? Wondering if there's anywhere that I can customize or have some crazy neon colors.

Anyway, other question.

I've bought a few hacky sacks which consist of a 32 panel metal ball bearing and a like.. I think it's 14 on the sandbag along with a normal pellet one. My main question is about the metal ball bearing and seeing if it's suitable for the freestyle I usually do. I'm not into any tournaments, so it's all out of recreation. What would be recommended for the inside material?

Thanks everyone. Cool

Well as far as lavers go there isnt much style options unfortunately.

For bag fillers, its all up to you, but generally plastic pellet bags are never used because they are too light and not very stallable.
My favourite filler is steel shot because it stalls and pops perfectly, and i like heavy bags. Some players also prefer a bag with a mix of pellets AND shot, sometimes people will mix all three (pellets, shot, and sand), like fourkast bags often do. its all preference. luckily you bought one of each so you can see what you like.

id also like to refer you to modified.in, which is the premier footbag forum. the one here is very slow with few posts, if any nowadays. the modified.in forum is very active, so check it out. all the best players, stitchers, and community members are on modified.

cheers.
