Hello All!
Last year I attended a wedding and stayed with a friend. While at his house I tried out his speed bag and fell in love with it. I had a lot of fun and felt it was great exercise to compliment going to the gym.
I set out to do some research and figure out what I wanted to get. It took me several months to figure out the right platform (after reading around on these forums), decide where I wanted to mount the setup and actually do all the work.
I ended up painting a room, getting 2x4's stained and mounted my platform across several studs to keep it secure. I'm terrible at doing things around the house, but I got to say, all my planning and measuring worked perfectly and the platform is a great success.
Thanks to Deville swivels for your fine craftsmanship! The platform is a Balazs i-Box, No. 13 Deville swivel and a Title Gyro 5x8 bag.
Here is a link to the album:
I realize my setup is rather tough for a beginner, seeing as the small bag in conjunction with the ball-hook swivel is unforgiving, however I have pretty good hand eye coordination and feel it will help me improve my accuracy and reaction time!
