TrickLadder is a structured learning app for footbag freestyle — also known as hacky sack — the sport of keeping a small woven bag in the air using only your feet. Whether you've never touched a hacky sack or you've been playing footbag for years, TrickLadder meets you where you are and takes you as far as you want to go. 49 TRICKS, ONE CLEAR PATH Start with your very first kick and climb all the way to competition-level freestyle. Every trick has a full tutorial — step-by-step instructions, pro tips, and a logical prerequisite path so you always know exactly what to learn next. AI COACH Record a short video of your attempt and get instant, structured feedback. Your coach scores your run 0–100 for cleanliness, breaks it down into contact, control, and recovery, tells you what you nailed and what to work on, and gives you a drill to run next. One free coached run every day. Your videos never leave your phone; only still frames are analyzed. THE LADDER Four categories, in the order real players learn them: - Basic Kicks — the foundation every trick is built on - Stalls & Delays — freeze the bag and hold your ground - 2-Add Tricks — dynamic add-style freestyle combos - 3-Add Tricks — competition-level sequences (Impossible Mode) PROGRESS THAT MEANS SOMETHING Pin a trick when you land it yourself; stitch it in gold when the AI coach verifies it. Earn XP for every rung, level up from Rookie to Legend, keep a daily practice streak, and take on the Trick of the Day for bonus XP. COMMUNITY Post your coach scores, see what other players are working on, add friends, and compare scores trick-by-trick. Learn. Practice. Master.
