a new toy for fitness

hey man is this thing still alive?

if so, do you still use it/has it taken a lot of beatings?

if not, how long did it last?

thanks!

here it is

Can you post a video of that?

Haven't used it recently...been busy, but it is still intact...I definitely need to put the mat on a heavier bag as the current one is too light...if I hit it hard enough for the sensor to trigger the bag moves too far away for the next strike, if I hit it light enough to keep the bag from sailing the sensor won't register the hit...I can probably do a video when I get a heavier bag and a new camera...my brother stole my hd camera some time ago...
