How would ponies play with a hacky sack?

[Mr Hacky Sack 3]

So I was thinking about an OC that really does reflect, well, me. But then this question popped up: How would a pony play with a hackysack(footbag)? I tried to come up with an idea as of how, but they all didn't quite.... work.

They use their back legs for most of the kicks, but then can lean back on their back legs to use their front legs for trick shots. Obvious

I would say it would be a lot like how rainbow dash bounces that ball in some of the episodes. she mostly uses her head and hind legs. I imagine it would be a lot like that

Pretty much what Discord said. If your OC is a Pegasus (or doubtfully, an Alicorn), he could use his wings as well. I am no expert on Hackysacking though, especially when it comes to ponies.

 

I was really curious due to this thread title.

I actually had to look up what a Hacky Sack was , I had no idea, sorry :/.

 

Anyways, considering Rainbow Dash bounced a ball on her nose/head, I assume that would generally be what they would do. Maybe if it came to the chance they'd use their hooves, or maybe if they have wings their wings.

Zygen... zygen  I am such disappoint in you son... How can one not know what a hacky sack is D:! You have been missing out on a lot of fun man.

Even though the question was brought on by your OC, the question itself is asking how ponies, our ponies from the show, would do something specific. Thus, I feel this belongs better in Show Discussion, not Sugarcube.

 

I've also edited your title to be a bit less vague :3

I dunno, i've never heard anyone mention that ever that I know. Of course not that I'm the most exposed person ever to things xD.

 

Never seen them before either.

 

Then again I was also homeschooled before 8th grade, so its possibly i missed out on it somewhere along the line .

, well I know about it now so your not sad, right xD. 

I don't know how to frankly, but i'm terrible at basically ever sport ever, or most physical activities, soo I don't think i'd do so hot xD.

 

Anyways.. Don't wanna drag this thread to far off topic.

I would think they'd just kick it off their forelegs/hooves, sort of like how people bounce a soccer ball off their foot.  Maybe mis in some over-the-head back kicks from their hind legs. 

 

I'd imagine that bouncing a hacky sack off their head with any kind of accuracy might be difficult.

[Viking 61]

Probably hind legs, maybe their tail since they've been shown to use their tails for some tasks. Maybe unicorns use little paddles for it.

[Marpaleeperle 12]

By kicking both their front and back hooves upwards, even using their head/snout to juggle it into the air. They can use their wings and tail too.

[TailsIsNotAlone 3,696]

They could play it better than us with some practice. They have more feet to spare. xD

 

I imagine the unicorns could use magic and pegasi could use their wings, but the earth ponies would call foul.

[RrVPfX9cPtw59FpC 1,304]

Well, I'm not really even sure hackey sacks exist in the pony world, but if they do, I'd guess they use their back legs to bounce it up. It'd be easy for a unicorn to cheat.
