    As a general rule (on the same swivel) smaller is faster.

    at least that's been my experience.

        Before you make your choice veggie, you should probably look at the new Ringside summer catalog. Page 4 there's a synthetic leather Ringside 6x9 for only 12.99. I think I'm getting it, along with some windy cut finger bag gloves from my combat sports catalog. Either way you can't go wrong, that Pro Mex model is slick as snot!

              For Mexican Style handwraps they are normally a bit longer and made of a more elastic material.

              Actually, Several years ago John Brown, owner of Ringside told me that the mexican style speed bag is slightly more narrow than the traditional sizes. I have I usually call this a "bannana bag" for they look longer and skinny.

                  Yeah your right Homie, I saw that bag in ringside... My coach has that. Well I have the pro swivel so I just want the fastest bag I can get.

                    That's a great approach to it homey. The smaller the faster.

                        It might be, but I always referred to a banana bag as a long, thin speed bag. Maybe the Thai bag could be the "Big Daddy Bannana Bag" and a skinny speed bag could be the "Baby Banana Bag".?

                            Actually, I almost threw my e-z lock pro swivel away too, but out of respect for the garbage, decided against it.

                            I just left it up at the "Y", and the kids destroyed it.
