yea

I'd like to see and hear one of these ring platforms in action.

i know i asked before if there were any examples of their use--i would too--no place right now to set one up--looks interesting--dd

[Dutchman]

Lordy it's been longer than I care to admit the last time I hit on one of these. I had a cousin that had one of this style. I vaguely remember that the sound was much less than a solid platform, kind of a dull thump instead of the slap we're used to.

I might show my gf this. She's into old vintage/antiques stuff. Might get her interested in speed bags if she sees this! "See, honey....it's important, it's been around, and has stood the test of time."

Try showing her a few of these links:

Belle Gordon 1904

Physical culture and self defense_1901

Bag Punching by Frank Jules_1895

Boxing and how to train_1913

Yes, it's important, It's been around, It's still around, and has stood the test of time, quietly hidden away in gyms and basements around the world. But still, someone new will always be drawn to that hypnotic rhythm and flurry of movements, when seen and viewed, drawing yet another mortal to say, "I gotta learn how to do this....!"

lol...oh yeah. Thank you for the links! I'll make sure she sees them. Also, I'm going to look up some youtube vids of women hitting the bag sometime and show her.
