    I don't think using slime on a speed bag is a good idea either, because I know where it comes from

        Got a chance to look at my XS ringside bag and after undoing the laces I noticed that there were 2 kind of lil slits on the very top of the bladder and they are on each side. Kind of like it got pinched or something. Kinda odd how that could happen up top.. would have thought the leak would have been somewhere near the bottom portion of the bag. Anyone experience this before?? Hope I can patch it, probably difficult since its on the top. I'll post some pics in a few..

          Yes. I had the same problem on my Ringside, pictures here: http://www.speedbagforum.com/forums/...php?albumid=82

          Replaced the bladder with a latex from Ringside (I think it was $5.00) and it's fine. Mine was an 8x5.
