Footbag

In footbag, acrobatic routines are performed with a small beanbag, kept in the air using mainly just the feet. With its roots in traditional kicking-based games found across the globe, footbag shot to popularity in the 1970's under the "Hacky Sack" brand name, and today has branched into a variety of both solo disciplines and games for multiple players. We meet 2018 overall freestyle champion Ishida Taishi as he enters the 2020 World Footbag Championships, being held online for the first time.
