Abstract
The invention includes a foot device to strike a projectile, such as a footbag. The foot device includes a frame, an elastic material and a base, where the elastic material and the base are attached to the frame. The elastic material is adapted to strike the projectile and to extend while exerting tension on the frame. Moreover, the base is adapted to be coupled to a shoe without restricting the motion of a foot within the shoe.
