How To Perform A Mirage

  1. Start by setting the footbag upward from a clipper set.
  2. As the footbag rises, pivot toward your setting side as you bring the thigh of your setting leg under the footbag.
  3. As the footbag falls, pivot toward back over the footbag while you move your setting leg around the footbag in an in-to-out direction.
  4. Complete the full dexterity motion and return the opposite foot that performed the initial set toward the footbag.
  5. Catch the footbag on the opposite toe that started the trick, finishing in a controlled stall.

Tips For Learning

Set Straight Up

Start with a controlled clipper set that gives you enough height and time to complete the dexterity.

Paradox Double Pivot

Pivot toward and then away from the footbag as you perform the dexterity.

Finish On The Same Toe

After completing the dexterity, bring the original setting toe back underneath the footbag for a clean stall.
