    Watching a punch-drumming video is always so inspiring. I have been away from the bag for a few weeks.

    I am having major withdrawals.

            ??

            So......


            0: - :37 Basic Rhythm, Straight Time Punching

            :37 - 1:27 jump to Syncopated Combinations

            1:27 - 1:39 Basic Rhythm, Straight Time punching

            1:39 - 4:08 Syncopated Punching (much faster pace than Basic Rhythm straight time)

            1:50 Missed RSP (L)

            2:26 - 2:28 Double Time off FDP combinations

            2:44 Miss R RSP (nice save, though.. )

            2:57 Miss second fist (L), of RDP.

            3:15 Side Triple Elbow Strikes x6 clean (illegal at this speed..)

            4:00 Miss Downward Triple Elbow. Really?

            4:08 Clean ending, dead on RSP on last beat. Probably lucky shot.

            All totalled, 4min 8 second song, at least 4 punches off beat, or maybe 5. Not bad for a warm-up.

            Bring on Take 2 .......and Matt: work on your Reverse Punching. You've almost got it.

                Awesome, awesome footage!!!!

                Just wanted to ask a few questions I was wondering about, if anyone knows:
                Was this speedbag a Title Atomic, size xs or xxs
                What is the red tape on there for?
                What kind of swivel is on the board, it looks like it has a huge base?

                  Atomic XS

                  What is the red tape on there for?
                  It's on there for the "Speed Demon". The red tape allows it to read the rebounds. Created by fellow SpeeBagForum member!



                  What kind of swivel is on the board, it looks like it has a huge base?
                  What you're seeing is the Speed Demon....I believe it was a Powermill Evil Swivel (can't remember).

                    Awesome videos in this thread. Hammer was very funny, and some great punch drumming (TM)
                    Don't buy your speed bag from the same place you buy your tackle box.

                          Yes! I have access to the only known footage of Doris DeGreen...and it looks great. Man, could this woman hit!

                          I REALLY want to buy the rights to use this, not only for the sake of the film, but for the sake of the history of the spped bag....so it doesn't get lost...BUT, it is expensive. I'm going to see if I can raise the fund (or some of them) by selling some stuff off. $1000.00 is my goal & will cover most of it...and allow me to use the footage in the film.

                          1940 beauty of film....



                          I have some banners, gloves, tee-shirts...and maybe a bag or two donated by Title Boxing that I'll be offering up here to help get the funds together for this footage...keep an eye out & help me to preserve some of the history of the speed bag we all love!

                            Man, that would be great if you can get some of this into your film.

                            Um, look at her swivels -- eye bolt and "shoestring" style. Good choice, Doris!

                              I know....I have to save this footage...

                              I also have the eye hook and want to try this out. I'd LOVE to find one of those old 'swivel bases' like she used on the floor...I never see those...anywhere?

                                This is on 16mm? The stills look pristine, is the film in good shape?
