      Yep, I had one, and just sent it off to someone. If you got the small, it's probably the smallest bag I've ever seen. 6x4, thin. Noticeably smaller than the smallest top contender. It hits very OK (fast), but because the one I had was SOoo small I really didn't enjoy hitting it. I use a lot of Downward Elbow Strikes and there just didn't seem to be enough room to get the Downward Elbow into the Bag Belly, since it is so close to the board. I kept it for a few years, and just recently gave it away. ( ...but I have a feeling you may be seeing it soon. )

        I ordered the medium 7x9. After reading your comment I am glad I didn't get the small!

          One thing I noticed that I liked was the Top Contender 7x4, it seemed to have a really nice smooth rebound along with an appropriate size (just a tad smaller than a 5x8 but not too small like a 6x4), I may have to pick up one of those.
          I LOVE that bag. Light weight (will feel like punching air compared to most other bags - if I recall it's only about 4.5 oz compared to 8 oz for a 10x7), nice size, and is real easy on the hands. Plus affordable

          They've changed up the look a bit, but this is the same model:

            Ringside currently only has small (8x5) and medium (9x6) size options under the "select size" drop box. Wonder if they will have the extra small in the future?

              I finally checked out the vid Tim. Impressive collection of bags, I really do dig your setup. How long did it take you to make again? Right now I only have the Title 7x10 and 5x8. I'm still trying to get better with the 7x10. I keep reading about how great the ProMex bags are. maybe one ay I'l save up the cash to get one a nd try it out

                Hard to say, it started simple and ended up complex (Stereo & speakers, shelves, etc.). The basic frame could be put together in a few hours.
