    Ahhh, that hitman bag brings back many memories. "Hitman Boxing" was a branch of NDL Products. They were the first to show any interest in a "speed bag training program" I was developing and brought me to their factory in Florida where they made all of the various products. My first meeting with a "Hitman Bag", similiar to the one shown in the craigslist picture, is shown below:

    As a result I attended numerous sporting goods industry trade shows, several boxing shows and ultimately the 1996 Olympics doing speed bag demonstrations on their equipment. The relationship died, and I wish I had gotten one of these adjustable free standing frames.

      Interesting. The few Hitman stands that I've seen used a chain link swivel, as well as on the demonstration tape that had (I have a copy of that). This appears to be a casting rather than a stamping.

        Yes, they did. I was not fond of their equipment truth be told. My agreement with them was pretty simple. If I'm the one hitting the bag at the program, I'm reserving the right to bring my swivel and bag. In these pictures (look down to national sporting goods show and las vegas fitness show).
        I used their bags, but for more intense appearances (middle of the ring before boxing matches, large crowd) or demonstrations at the supershow I used my bags and swivel. notice my everlast 4200 and ballhook swivel at the atlanta supershow, feb 1996. (look at the equipment.... )


        and their bags in las vegas. (the show was dead, on a few hundred ever attended the 3 day event)

            Best I remember she was local personal fitness instructor/model working at the Show. Her boyfriend (took the picture) was tall enough to bump his head on the rebound board, with arms as big as my legs.

            We could not lower that board (it was a special made unit) and it was too high for her and too low for her boyfriend.
