	Talk:Footbag - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		I think the term "footbag" was coined by the creators of the sport (both American's, I think) and is its official name.
		Since it is the role of an encyclopedia to be authorative, Footbag would therefore be the correct term.
		You may be right that the term "footbag" was coined by the game's creators, but the name that they trademarked was "Hacky Sack," thus making that the "official" name of the sport, or at least of the bag itself.

	Tricks and Moves for the footbag - hacky sack - Stalls and Stalling
		When the footbag is falling on either the right or left side of your body, bring the respective foot up and strike the footbag with the outer side of your shoe...if your shoes have flat sides, you can place the footbag anywhere...kicking the bag a bit lower than normal adds power to the kick.
		When the footbag is falling in front of you, close to your body, strike the footbag with the inside of a foot...most shoes have a cavity on the inside surface and try not to kick it there because it throws the bag off course...after practice you'll make this kick by instinct.
		When the footbag falls in front of you, raise either leg up to meet the bag to let it impact on your toe gently...you can bend your support leg slightly to increase the cushioning effect but you don't really need to do that
