How to Jam With a Myachi

How to Jam With a Myachi
What? Myogee? Myufee? No, silly, mee-ach-ee. It's basically a full body hacky sack, that basically anyone can learn! The only rule is NO PALMS ALLOWED! It's a 1.5 inch by 3.5 inch rectangular, sand filled sack, and comes in many various fabrics and colors. Many Toys R Us' across the country carry Myachi's if you're in the US, but if not, you can go to myachi.com and buy one off of their website for $7. After obtaining a Myachi, head on over to the next step.

Step 1Basics

Now remember before we start, that practice makes perfect. You're not going to leap off the diving board pulling off insane stunts and amazing miraculous tricks. Let's start off with the basics.

Cradle: 


Now for the Cradle, the key is fluidity. You want to make sure that you're going through the motions nice and with some rhythm to it otherwise the sack might wobble or slide of your hand.

360:  

The 360 is easily one of the more basic tricks, yet many people execute it wrongly. They wave their hand in a wrist snap instead of going up and around the sack. Once you get good, you can add a second rotation, or a third. Eventually making your way to 47. (That was a joke; maybe. We'll see in a million years ;P)

Cold Fusion:

The key to the Cold Fusion is TIMING. If your timing is off just s smidge, the sack will either clip the edge of your hand or miss altogether. And that only spells more trouble when you try to go faster.


PS: I got these off of the Myachi Channel on Youtube; there are a plethora of instructional videos just like these at your fingertips!

How many people buy it? Over one and a quarter million worldwide since 1999, about 200,000 in 2009, up about 35% so far in 2010. It's the #1 selling toy in NYC, the #1 selling toy in Chile and the #18 selling toy in the USA. The Myachi website is in the top 0.01% of most popular websites worldwide. Sorry, Metalman, looks like your finger just isn't as "on the pulse" as you thought it was.
