How To Perform A Merkon

  1. Stand balanced with your knees slightly bent.
  2. Set a clipper straight up.
  3. Begin a backspin as the footbag rises, keeping your eyes on the footbag for as long as possible.
  4. Continue the spin and quickly spot the footbag as it reaches its peak.
  5. Complete the spin and perform a Leg Over with the opposite foot.

Tips For Learning

Spot The Bag

Keep your eyes on the footbag for as long as possible before beginning the spin. Spotting the bag early helps you track it through the rotation and prepare for the catch.

Stay On Axis

Keep your spin upright and centered. Staying balanced throughout the rotation makes it much easier to get your stalling foot underneath the footbag.

Finish With Leg Over

After spotting the footbag, complete a clean Leg Over and finish with a controlled toe stall on the opposite foot.
