    Blindfolded

    I have been having a go at hitting blindfolded. Something a little different, for me anyway. Excuse the bad mannered little boy at 0:54 secs.


    And another using the Home made metal ball hook and my new Everlast 4x6. A great bag too!


    Enjoy! And thanks for watching.

    Awesome! I have the 4x6 Everlast too - i like it, but it is only a few weeks old and the leather is already cracking a little...almost looks as aged as my 9 (or so) year old Ringside Large Bag...

      UK, man you are throwing some very nice combinations! Looks like you've been working the techniques and combination links very hard! I'm seeing a lot of very nice moves in there. Especially in the bindfold clip. Nice double and triple elbows, great linking of lead fist, 2nd fist, both - advanced O-TES ' F-Roll.

      You're getting it, mate! Great to see that progress, and the USA is gonna have to get grip on that ball hook swivel. It looks and sounds great.

      You'll be wearing the tag "speed bag master" pretty quick at this rate!

        Thanks jzzkwz.

        Even when brand new, I treat my bags with Connoly Hide Care. I believe this is the best product on the UK market. However, my Everlast 5x8 has started to crack too! And that only a month old. I have given the 4x6 about 3 treatments already so, I'll see how this one holds out.

                Thanks Biff. It's great Biff. A bit on the noisy side though. Poor neighbours.

                  I don't know Vini; it sounds pretty good to me on the video you posted in the other section.

                      Thanks fingers.

                      I bet you could hide that bag behind your hand.

                        Man during that Blindfolded clip I see some awesome combinations: Lead Fist, Second Fist, Both fists linking, Outward and Downward Elbows, A sneaky advanced combo of Outward Triple Elbow Strike to Front Fist Roll with one rebound inbetween. ( O-TES ' F-Roll ) and nice Front Double-Reverse-Side-Side...etc. Wow, someone's been practicing!

                        UK, you're gonna be wearing the moniker "Speed Bag Master" pretty sooooon...

                        Nice work mate! you're gettin' down on it lately.

                          UK! Great job! What improvement! I have been slackin' since getting off tour. Well, not slackin, just extra focus on runnin', and getting home and being with kids and errands and all that.....
                          It is nice to see you doing all this, as a reminder of how much we all can improve with a little serious focus! I've seen Skunk bag with his eyes closed, I am going to give this a try as well.....
                          So much to learn, so little time...
                          BAG ON!

                            Impressing the neighbors and scaring the crap out of the enemies at the same time.

                              Thanks again Alan. To impress someone like yourself, is very motivating.

                              I'll be able to put even more practice in pretty soon. The bedroom will be getting plastered next week, so another platform will be hung in there. The UK weather has been pretty bad these last couple of weeks so, not being able to practice as much as I'd like.

                              Thanks SSP! Sounds like you've got a 'get fit' thing going on! I understand you wanting to spend time with the kids. I come home from work, spend 10 minutes on the bag and then the guilt set's in. They grow-up way to quick so, time spent with them is valuable.

                              I have to say, there's been some excellent improvements over the last month or so, not just from me but, many other regular baggers around the forum. This is what it's all about people! Sharing our video's, skills and knowledge. I think everyone should give them selves a pat on the back.

                              Well done Tim!
