      Forza Swivel

      Checked today and they are back in stock. Price is the same but they are supposedly five dollars more for the regular price so I guess they will be going up at some point.

Took the plastic cap off the bottom of my other forza and tried with all the physical strength I could muster to unscrew that one, but it wouldn't budge.


        Short story short = Permatex red, thread lock.
        Happened to me a lot "back in the day", launching a bag off swivel, or hook took off... pretty funny on video. Just be glad it wasn't a hard Reverse Single Punch that sent the bag into your face.

          Although not from the hook or bag flying off, when first practicing reverse fist roll I gave meself a dandy of a bloody nose (fist to the face). Way, waay overly animated wild movement. Learned the hard way to shrink the movement down to "control" the bag, and apparently my fists. All in all this was a good thing.

          During week one back in January I cut my hand open between my knuckles on the top edge of the platform while trying to establish a basic 1,2,3. More blood than sweat so far in my bagging experience.

            Yep, done the same, really ripping Reverse Single Punches (RSP) when punch drumming to really fast songs. fist to face, chin and chest. Yeah, it happens.

              Eyelet Unscrews

              Hello All,

              Speedbag mentioned that he was baggin, and all of a sudden the bag and eyelet came off, or rather unscrewed off. I was working with my bag today on a forza, and bam the eyelet unscrewed off and the bag went flying and so did the eyelet.

              Is this normal? Is there a way to fix it?

                it happened with one of my forza's, I'd had it for about two months at the time. I tried Loctite but it still unscrewed tried it again and still. I've superglued it in and I'm baggin like hell on it with no problems now. My second forza on another platform is showing no signs of unscrewing.

                ..but yeah it's a weird thing when the bag and hook fly across the room.

                    Actually, I used good ole crazy glue. It's rock solid in there now so it's like a one part unit.
