    Speedbag tips from Everlast

    So I bought a speedbag on Ebay and it came with a swivel. New in the box, but from 1985 or so and a beat up box.
    I did notice that the factory put some interesting how-to and a list of the Everlast Hall of Fame. here they are.

      I read that back in the 1980s, the tap dancer words stuck with me, but until the Internet never knew about the true possibilities of the speed bag. I ran across the 1980s Everlast bladder replacement instructions the other day, I should scan it and post it, nothing amazing, but it's a piece of history.

            I had several of those little inserts also. That is one reason why I kept working on the book for seven plus years. I figured the people who want to learn the speed bag deserved something better than that insert.

              Cool find.
              Don't buy your speed bag from the same place you buy your tackle box.
