First off, great website! I've read just about every thread on here already and am completely hooked on Speed bagging.
I was into boxing about 30 years ago in my earlier years, did some local stuff and worked out mostly on the heavy bag, little bit on the speed bag. I have a 12 year old son who wants to learn how to speed bag so I purchased some equipment and we are off to the races.
Well, I have to say, things have certainly changed from my youth. Much more artistic and stylized then my old typical RRR LLL RRR LLL. Therefore, I'm way out of my element these days, but learning my way back into the mix.
I purchased a Valor CA-53 platform and mount (which I have to say works very nicely) and mounted it directly into my concrete foundation. I also have the Title Deluxe Swivel and Title Deluxe Pro Swivel and have to say, I'm not real fond of either. The chain link is very clunky and the U swivel has come apart twice while hitting the bag... not the actual U post, but the nut that holds the entire assembly came off. So any recommendations on Swivels would be great.
I have two bags already. The 6x9 Valor that came with the Valor Platform and mount and I purchased a Title 7x10 (Black model).
Any information to help us move forward would be great as well as recommendations on bags and other items. Thanks
