    Update from Mrs Mitts' corner...

    First of a big thumbs up to this wonderful forum and everyone here who makes it what it is. I had a difficult summer and haven't been able to go to the boxing gym since June. I haven't done a lot of speedbagging either, but keeping in touch with the forum over the past few months was a positive thing.

    The good news is that I'm doing a lot better now - the gym will have to wait a while, but at least I can get back under the board. So here to celebrate is a little video.

    I've been short on stamina so have been working on new techniques instead. Inspired by you baggers out there, and just seeing what I can do. For some reason the original audio turned out a constant hissing sound so had to swop it with a youtube track to add sound. Thanks to those who have already posted a comment on youtube!

    Oh, nearly forgot...! The plastic everalast swivel has the metal ball in it, custom made by fingers from a tiny door knob!! Works really well, so can't see me going back to the plastic ball any time soon.

              unreal advanced double bumping with fists and elbows, adnd nice shadow punches to Triple Elbow strikes. Also loved your Alternating Fist Rolls, from a Front Roll to a "Reverse Front Fist Roll" is very Skunky to say the least. That is really a cool maneuever. Nicely done. Great set and awesome control. Keep it coming!

                          It's a dubious sounding title isn't it???
                          And after all that I forgot to put any rivets in!!
                          Be good to see a new video from you too

                          Thanks for the encouragement, it means a lot. I've watched (studied!) a lot of Skunks videos from the first 'How to do linking..' to the very latest. It's nice when something that seems impossible at first works out.

                          I like that thought piefurz, it feels good when the bag is listening!! I'm getting on well with this Lonsdale bag.

                            Great forward and reverse front roll Mitts. very impressive to see it seamlessly woven into your routine. Lots of elbows and rivets too, that's my kind of punching!
