Aqua Punching Bag 18" | Bad Boy Blue

Had to return accidentally ordered by children. Company fantastic money pd bk as soon as it was returned

Great bag, much better to use than my old angle bag. More forgiving, more realistic.

Box ripped open. Driver said he picked it up like this? Looked second hand. Screw stop for water inlet looked chewed up

I'm an older guy who has had some tennis elbow and shoulder issues this year, and I really fell away from bag work because of it. I had been eyeballing these for years and finally decided to go for it. I'm a 250 pound guy so I went for the 21" bag and wow, what a difference.I don't know what the change is specifically, but it feels GREAT to hit. I can put my full power shots in to it, and it's nowhere near as jarring as any heavy bag I've ever used. It feels fantastic, and for some reason I can't explain I can put in more rounds (even with a higher proportion of power shots) with less fatigue. I simply last longer and my joints don't feel awful.With the 190 pound bag on a 2 foot chain, it also isn't flying all over the garage like my old 100lb bag. I don't have a ton of room in there, so I really like that. I don't have to chase it around or wait for it to settle like my 100 pound bag, so it's better for putting together long combinations using full power shots. I also feel more comfortable at the right distance. It's nice to place the shots at the end of full extension and not worry about it getting away from me and tearing my elbow on a whiffed power shot.My tips: Blow it up with air before you fill it with water to make it fill out before adding water, and don't overfill it if you can avoid it. As soon as I removed the water source I must have had the water level above the inlet and it shot a lot of water all over the place. Not a problem in the garage, but indoor installations could be a problem.You will need a really strong place to hang it. I have this on a span between two fairly long sets of joists that I sistered when I hung my old 100lb bag, and it makes them bend at this size. In short, 190 pounds is a lot of downward force, and when you start throwing uppercuts and it jumps, it multiplies that. Also, I use a heavy bag spring ($5 or so on amazon) on the end of my chain so it's not jarring the joists too hard.Overall it's pretty pricey for what it is and might not be the best bang for your buck in heavy bags, but it does work and feel as I'd hoped it would.

This bag is every bit as good as advertised. Great feel when you strike it. Cool colour. Just want to hit it all day. Feels indestructible yet gives when it’s punched.Make sure you’ve got a place to install something heavy. We braced across three ceiling joists per photo.NOTE this does NOT come with hanging hardware. Had to buy chain (5 bucks at Home Depot for 30 grade which is good for like 1000 pounds), swivel (10 bucks), good Carabiner (10 bucks), generic heavy duty hanging bracket (10 bucks) and some 1/4 inch carriage bolts (3 bucks). Also bought heavy duty heavy bag spring (150 lb) for about 30 bucks, which was essential to dampen the vibrations in the house.You can buy hanging kits separately, not sure they come with everything you need anyways.

quick arrival and as described, very stiff and a bit hard to fill

Design provides a unique, lifelike feel with every punch. It's like sparring with the ocean, minus the saltwater in my eyes. The 190 pounds of watery resistance make for a challenging yet satisfying workout – it's like fighting the gentle forces of Poseidon himself.

Love it, it's much better than a regular heavy bag. Worth the money, excellent quality.
