This item is not currently available for purchase.
Greatness is Within
  • Balanced for accurate rebounds while training
  • Brand new design creates optimal speed bag functionality
  • Ultra premium Kangaroo leather provides the lightest and most durable speed bag on the market
  • Enhanced sweet spot
  • 8"x5" bag size

An outstanding addition for anyone who is serious about speed bag work.

The bag itself is made out of kangaroo leather, which is extremely light and durable. The seams of the bag have been curved to optimize the contact sweet spot as the bag rebounds bag and forth from your hand to the platform. The bag size (8"x5") and teardrop shape are suitable for users of all skill levels.

High speed and consistency are the trademarks of this new design.

5x8 kangaroo speed bag

I think this bag is solid. It is very fast and has a nice feel to it. I kept busting the medium leather elite bag. I have yet to burst this bag. I have the u-shaped swivel and the bag is almost to light for it. I have since gotten use to it and am rocking on it full tilt.

Everlast has become an international company, and I believe their manufacturing reflects that.

To get an exact idea of where specific items are made, you would have to reach out to them directly - http://www.everlast.com.

Speed Bags Expert FAQs
     
  1. What size speed bag is right for me?

    When choosing a speed bag the most important decision to make is size. The size of the bag has a great effect on the speed, rebound, and striking surface available to you.
    Bigger bags have a larger surface area and can thus be hit more routinely. However, smaller bags tend to rebound quicker and can provide faster training.
    Also consider the details of make and model when shopping. Some bags have an added attachment loop on the bottom to convert it into a double end bag.
    Beginners generally prefer larger bags as it increases the sweet spot for you to strike. Easier to hit = less frustration and more training. Experienced boxers tend to prefer smaller, quicker bags that allow them to hone their speed and accuracy to a fine degree.

    2.  
  2. How high should I hang the bag?

    Most boxers recommend that you hang your speed bag up at mouth level. This provides a natural feel and keeps the arms working at proper angles. You want to be punching the fattest part of the bag (aka the belly), so having it too low could be problematic in that area. If your speed bag is too high however you will begin to feel unnecessary strain in your arms and neck.

    3.  
  3. How much should I inflate my bag?

    Inflating your bag properly is key to good, safe training. One problem that many beginners face is over-inflation. When a bag is too inflated it becomes stiff and can often hurt the hands.
    When inflating your bag, make sure you keep going until all the wrinkles in the material have been pushed out. However, be certain that you can press the bag with both thumbs and feel it depressing. If you cannot press the bag or are struggling to do so, you may have over-inflated it. If you have under-inflated the bag you'll notice a lack of good rebound, so simply add a bit more until you get the feel you want. Under-inflating is also a good strategy just in case your bag is going a bit too fast for you to keep up.

    4.  
  4. How do I use a maize ball?

    The maize ball is an interesting and inexpensive way to add variety to your training routine. As opposed to a speed bag where the goal is to strike with rhythm and timing, the maize bag swings freely back and forth on a much longer chain. This swinging provides you the opportunity to practice head movement to avoid being struck by the bag and also helps you work on foot movement and shadow boxing.
    The maize bag can be used for hitting practice but is more frequently used as a mobility and reactionary tool.
