Gyro Balanced Leather Speed Bag: Speed Bag for Boxing, Speedbag, Speed Bags, Boxing Speed Bag, Title Speed Bag, Boxing Bag, Boxing Equipment, Punching Bag

This is my first bag, but so far it’s been great. It’s a well made quality bag. It has been very consistent. I’m happy I started with this one (medium), I started at 4psi, then 5, then 6. This paired with the XMark mount, and the Meister SpeedKills Thunderbolt Triple-Bearing Speed Bag Swivel, has been a lot of fun! Money well spent!

I bought the medium size bag and have been using it daily for about 3 weeks. I do have boxing experience and usually would buy a small bag, but my kids and wife use it also so I went for the medium one rather than the small one. As far as the construction, there has been no quality issues. I pumped it up to 4.5 psi and it's holding up well. For a medium bag it's sufficiently fast. My 8 year old daughter and 10 year old son picked up on the speed quickly. If you're new and trying to decide between a medium and large, get the medium. The large is actually harder to learn on and is so much harder to get going quick. You'll wish for a smaller one after a couple of weeks. Only thing I find annoying about the bag is the lace seems to want to come undone. Had to re-tie it a couple of times. But other than that it's been great. btw..if you are brand new, pump it to 4 psi. Much easier. Difference between 4 psi and 5 psi is quite astounding. Lower psi is much more forgiving of slightly off center strikes. It's easier on your skin, and is a bit slower. It's also quieter and cause less vibration if noise is a factor where you train. At 5 psi, a slightly off center strike cause the bag to go in different directions. But once you get the hang of it, it's much faster. I use this pump Under Armour Dual Action Pump, Black and it works great.

out of all the speed bags ive used this one takes the cake. - i have 2 problems with speed bags usually. either they are so perfectly round that if you hit it in just barely the wrong spot it wobbles off course and ruins the flow of the workout and any drills im trying to accomplish. - the second is that they all tend to fall apart after a good 4 to 6 months of repeated use. and even after duct taping or trying to restitch them by hand, the leather is just useless and i have to get another one, or when they do start to tear then problem number one occurs where it may hit the board with the tear off center and spin out of control making me restart my rythm : the gyro bag has cleared both of these problems. with the 4 panels its slightly flatter where you hit and where it hits the board so it stays in line the whole time, letting me change footing positions or drill numbers without an issue. : and on the quality part, this bag has been in nonstop use by myself and the other 50 guys in my ships gym around the clock and it still looks almost as good as new. and with the price being so low i can afford to buy another one 3 years down the road when and if it finally does crap out. . very stable . strong quality materials that will last

This is a well balanced ball that makes speed bag workouts more pleasant and allows you to up your game. Buying a less expensive ball is a waste of money as you won't be able to establish the rhythm that you can with this ball. This is a "slower" bag and larger than the fastest bags and it has a good place in my workouts. There is a faster inner bladder that I could use to speed this bag up, but I just have multiple bags of different sizes and speeds. If I want a faster bag this size, I'll either buy another identical bag with the faster bladder OR I will just change the bladder in this bag and make it faster - then I won't have this medium speed bag. It's still fast if I hit it hard.

This is for the 5x8 size Looks: This bag looks like a competitors Gyro balanced bags from its professional line that are not made anymore. It has the same black leather, Gyro Balanced wording and red piping/welting. The only difference is that those older bags were made with a real high quality kidskin leather and were a much more faster and responsive bag. I am not a fan of the laces, as shoe strings tied up like a child's shoes is no the best look to me. Leather: The leather on these Title Gyro bags is decent. It is not high quality, but it is soft, looks good and should hold up well since it feels pretty thick. Title makes these Gyro bags too heavy and the thick leather is part of this. Performance: I have every size Gyro bag, and they are all on the slower side. These bags can be hit fast, but it requires much more effort than other bags to get them going. I think that a combination of the black butyl bladder, heavy leather construction and too much inner liner make these bags a but slow. I replace the bladder in almost all of my Title bags with the orange latex ones. This will help the bag speed up and become a little more responsive, but it can be a task to do so. Overall: Overall I do like the bags. They are a pure shout out and tribute to another brand's Gyro bags and to me that is cool since they other brand does not make them anymore. The Gyro's are a little on the slow side, but a bladder change can help with that. I do love the fat belly shape of the bag, and with its thick leather this bag should last for a good amount of time.

Had trouble keeping air in the bag.

Good bag. Bought the medium. A little smaller than expected - 6.85" max diameter inflated. Not quite a peanut, (The Fighter) but for the money, good value. Mounted it in my garage next to my medium-heavy bag. Use it daily. Doesn't seem to deflate much even with extreme temperature changes and a good pounding. I give it a few pumps every few times I use it. Checked out Everlast at local sporting goods store. Bought this one for a little more money instead. I'm not a real heavy pounder, not an experienced boxer, but it takes my workout at 180 lbs. I'm satisfied with the action. Like most new leather bags, it's a touch slow but that may work out of it. Built my own back board and mount from a small round wooden table top and 2x3's hanging from the rafters, plus some spare hardware. (Might be the cause of the slight sluggishness.) Total cost under $20. (Will post picture later.)

You can just tell when something isn't cheap and actually had a design team work on it. There is probably a bag that someone said "hm, I bet I could make speed bags if I just puyt this and that together" THIS IS NOT THAT BAG This is the bag that was designed and built by people who understand what is needed for a bag that is hit OVER and OVER with power, speed, precision, and at times lack of precision, and at angles that are both predictable and unpredictable. This is worth the extra $$$ You can feel the quality within the first minute of play. I've spent hours beating this thing and playing around with different speed, punches, and power. The bag has essentially no wear n' tear and is looking like it will last MANY more hours to come.
