      The NEW Everlast bags are trash. I bought two or three when I was starting out. All lopsided and just plain bad.

      You may as well just give Everlast your wallet and let them kick you in the face.

        I agree the everlast bags are so bad. I wish they would bring back some of the olds speedbags bags with the same specifications..A lot of speedbagers would be happy.I have to say I do like the bigger size kangaroo’s.

          Yep - the shape of the bags Everlast puts out these days is also atrocious IMO. I have the 6-9 and the 7-10 that I bought when I was starting out. The loops are also craaaazy long on them.

            I'll add only now that I wouldn't have purchased any of the Title Gyro line. Amongst all the other better speed bags I have.. they, the gyro's, just sit in a box uninflated and bladderless.

              Title Big Blue. Mine is sitting bladderless on the floor, gathering dust, disrespected. A speed bag should be fun. Big Blue is not. A cow died for this sin.

                paranday is yours just a lemon or are the big blue's in general an entire line o lemons? I have always thought about picking one up (because I like blue) but I've read too many negative sentiments on the dang thing.

                I have my Gyro's listed locally and nobody's biting. Until the next gathering when I'll just give them away, I'm stuck with them.

                  Do you have all three gyro sizes? My husband seems to like them but he does seem to be more partial to his ringside heritage speed bags. It's nice that you say you will give them away at the next event.

                    It's passable with the replacement bladder, but in comparison to the Everlast 4205, it's no contest. I get the impression is that they tried to offer a "big" bag that could be used on the omnipresent 24" platforms. It fits, but it's not the most satisfying large bag that I've hit.

                      Hi Bag boy, how do you like hitting the Everlast 4205? I guess it is leaps and bounds better then the Title blue?

                        Thanks Dutchman.

                        Mickey, I don't have a 4205 but there was one in new out of the box looking condition on ebay a few days ago. Might still be there.

                          Bought a Title Gyro bag. Lopsided and weird to hit. Goes funky from time to time. Called Title and they’re replacing.
