Last month I bought a 6x9 Title gyro balanced bag and was disapointed in how slow the rebound was. I put a title latex bladder in and it improved slightly. I then turned the bag inside out and noticed how thick the outer shell was. Out of curiosity I cut out the black lining, and found a sticky material under it on a white lining.
This may sound over done, but I then used some solvent to loosen the material and rub it off. I ended up with a sticky ball the size of a large marble. I then put the latex bladder back in. Long story short (too late) the bag is much faster and lighter. The shell thickness is more like an everlast bag now. Probably too much work, but I really like the size and shape of the gyro bag. Curious if anyone knows why they would put all that sticky material between layers. All it does is make it thick and slow. Maybe for durability.
