I'm green with envy…

I want a green bag too!

[Dutchman]

Yes, but one that is a little bit more durable

[thenewgoldtinman]

Nice

Nice skills

Hey Dee, there was a time in the mid 1990's when Ringside carried a black and Green 8x5. You can see it below.

I gave that one away years ago because I was pretty much exclusively using that same size in Black-Red. The Black-Red 8x5 appears in lots of my video's of the day and the training video's. Great shape and FAST. But I have often regretted giving up that black and green because it wasn't available very long.

This is the shape of the older ringside bags which I believe Ralph still runs down occasionally.

I like the shape and size of that green/black bag. I guess I'll just have to do the waiting game, hoping one will show up on ebay or here on the forum… Or, settle for a multi-colored Cleto. I see that "fingers" from the U.K. has one:

Maybe the Wonderful Pistachio people could do a tie-in with Title and get a run of green bags sourced and marketed for them. And let them be high quality bags, not the Budweiser low buck approach.

I posted the video because I think it is a positive thing having the speed bag seen on prime time television, and with Pac-Man at the helm, no less.

The parent company of this brand of pistachios seem like decent people,

They remark on their commitment to community fitness via basketball. Maybe they can use the speed bag -- with their green Title bags -- to help local communities further their fitness goals.

I once had a two hour long conversation with Alan on the phone. My ear was sore, but he made me realize there are opportunities staring at us everywhere to promote the speed bag. Zaza gets it! MsDeville gets it! Many others get it, too!

It's a wonderful time for the speed bag. Further!
