Vert with Spins

[The Baggist]

Tried vert baggin a couple of months ago and here is a vid update. I finally landed a couple of spinning double elbows. Thanks for watching!

Daniel,
You continue to amaze me. I'm not sure whether your double bumping fosters your contolled style (short hits with no extra extension), or whether it's the other way around. On the assumption that it's the former, I've been working on double bumping to see it it leads me to hit "smaller."

What do you think of the Atomic bag? At the moment, I don't find hitting it to be very satisfying. One thing's for sure though, after hitting the Atomic for a while, returning to the black and yellow Everlast feels like hitting bag filed with sand.

Incorporating the knee is killer!

Spins!?!?! Double bumps ?!?!? and Knees ! all on a vert bag. That was great! I am seriously impressed. You've really caught on to the vert bag and ran with it!

I gotta get a better vert bag setup . Mine is a bit too unstable I'm thinking (Yes - I'm going to fall back to blaming the equipment) as I've not been able to make a huge amount of progress.

What height is your vert bag mounted at and what height are you? (apologies in advance if I've already asked and you told me this, but I don't remember what the answer was). What size bag is that?

You just earned yourself a custom user title.

Thanks Jim!!! I would say the lighter bags are an acquired taste but when I started hitting bags like the Rival 6x4, the Top Contender, and now the Atomics, I didn't enjoy them too much either, but after sticking with them for a while you start to feel them out. I would say the best thing to do is switch bags often and learn each ones personality and then its easier to control any bag.

Thanks for the kind words Juxt!!! Yeah get a board up on the wall ASAP!! You will love it!!

Thanks as always Tim!!! I think what helped me out is I hung my vert bag a little higher than most because I wanted to incorporate double bagging into it. My Vert bag is hung at 4'3" an I am 5'9" so it is a little under chest height(sternum). It makes Knees and feet a lot harder but it opens up some other moves and is a lot easier on the back!!! The bag is my Cansco big bag and I think its a about the size of an Everlast 4210. Not sure if I quite earned the title yet with all the awesome vert baggin thats been goin on but I appreciate it!!!!!

I gotta get one of these mounted also,had a quick go at SB2010 for the first time and found it a real challenge , but in your case Daniel, the 40 truck fully
loaded freight train at speed continues on a path of destruction.

Ha Ha Thanks Deano!!!!! Yeah you will pick it up VERY fast!!!! First couple of sessions are kinda tricky cause the "sweet spots" are a little different but once you get used to it most of the same combos are possible plus many more. Can't wait to see how your "Aussie style" translates to the vert!!!!

How's it going Deano? How's your dad doing? You should get a vertical bag going. I guess with bags hanging down in the northern hemisphere and hanging up in the southern hemisphere we can meet in the middle with them hanging vertical and will all be even trying to learn something new. Keep on elbow baggin!!!

hey Greg ,yeh all is good,and the old bloke is punching like a house on fire,the trip to NJ has really spurred him on ,he punches a couple of times a day, just
short bursts,a few new moves he's working on,and also Alans style which he is really enjoying.had to take the nail gun up and modify his platform for him,so maybe I;ll try to get a vid in the not to distant future and get it on the forum.
It was great meeting you and having a punch and a yak,will definitley do it again
at some time in the future.take it easy mate .deano

[PIEFURZ]

Deano, glad to hear the old bloke is hard at it. Have seen on the forum where some folks are talking about making it down under. Would be great if they do and would love to see some pics and vids of it. I know they will love it. I've mentioned to Tim an idea of using maybe google earth or something to show the location of baggers around the world and points of interest to baggers. Don't know how much work it would be but would be cool to show you guys on the map.

Hey Deano, you guys got Yak in Australia? Whoa, Texas has to get a few of those....

just pulling your digeridoo mate. Here's a little digeridoo drumming. I want to get one of those and call it "World Punch Drumming". I imagine BT could have a ball with this.

Tell hi to dad and hope all is well.
