And so I have. It is definatly a really great sport because it requires so little equipment (only the hacky sack) and as little or as much time as you want. I have been playing for at least forty five each day for the past three years now. I would recommend it to everyone!

I play every now and then... But I stink.  My balance is really bad, so it's hard to get the positioning right. =/

Hacky sack is REALLY hard to master but once you have the hang of it is great fun. And in answer to Daylight I can stall with some sucuss on certain parts (knee and head mostly).

Oh yeah, brings up good memories.
I'm no pro, but I can atleast hold the sack up for few turns, eh. 
I do like the game, because it's simple, difficult to master and also fun to play with the right group.

You mean with a football etc.?
Certainly, you practice the balance plus it's similar of holding other annulation thing.
I think it's more difficult with the hacky, maybe cause I'm more used to hold up footballs, but still the hacky is lighter and so on..bah I don't know what I'm talking about, I'm no pro!

| Ah. I can do that with a soccer ball, but I practice with a hack for about an hour every day, so when I use a ball, it feels big and akward. So I can do it, but not as well as I can hackey sack.
