That brought back some memories. My senior high school had a striking bag set up in the equipment room. As I recall it was a Wilson rebound ring with a Wilson bag. I recall that I couldn't find the model number on the bag. It had probably been there since the school had been built, a good twenty years prior. It was flatter than a pancake and the PE teacher didn't want to go to the trouble of trying to fill out the paper work to get a new bladder for it. Besides I was a scrawny kid in those days and he didn't think a whole lot of me, other than to pick on me in front of the class....Last edited by Dutchman; 02-25-2014, 08:54 PM.

High School speed bag
I was telling Zaza a story that i believe relates to this video just about a month ago. I, being a personal trainer at a gym, talk to a lot of people on daily basis. And one day at the gym I was talking to this guy probably in his mid to late 60s about the speed bag and I wish I could remember what state he said he grew up in, but he said when he was younger in middle or high school or BOTH, it was a physical fitness requirement to be able to hit the speed bag in gym class. This video seems to be exactly that! I thought that was fascinating. Just add that to the list of the all the different scenarios and connections the speed bag has.
