I bought the 153 lb. bag in Oct. 2018 and noticed about a 2.5" tear near the top at the water line about two months ago. Water sprays when punching it and I'm thinking it may one day tear all the way at once. I'm ordering a Title Wave H20 Monsoon right now. I have the black one being used in the video plus red and blue round one's in different sizes and have had no problems with them.
Thanks for the awesome review and the shout out to Jesus Christ. Amen! They were all out of the 86lb bags so I decided to order the 153lb. I hope its not too much bag!
@@exchangeofwisdom8475 I like it a lot. Haven’t been able to use it as much as I’d like because I threw my shoulder out so I’m taking it easy. Hopefully be able to to use it more in the future. The only issue, is a minor one, is that the ridges can hurt the hands a little bit, but the easy solution is too put some protection on the hands. Problem solved.
Dope gym coach I didn’t know u were located in Washington, I live here in Everett been goin to Seattle boxing gym and been checkin out ur content is dope, keep up the good work, I want to buy that water bag for my garage now
Hi loved your video and looking for some advice. I'm new to boxing and want a bag I can use outside at home. I was going to order a 4ft straight heavy bag before seeing your video. What would you recommend for first bag and versatility to practise different punches and footwork?? Thanks in advance 👍🏻
Hey there, welcome to the Dungeon Squad! If you are only able to do one bag at this time, I would recommend something like this bag here, a body snatcher bag, or an uppercut bag. Something where you can not only work on your straight punches but your hooks and uppercuts as well. Thanks!
Thanks for the vid. I’m 48 and want something to punch on at home in the basement for exercise. I do have a question...... for How do you remove the water to move the bag?
It’s best to place the bag in a spot where it won’t need to be moved, in the event that it does, you’ll have to bring the bag down and drain the water.
Would you say that it can build your shoulder muscles just as good as regular bags? When I hit I feel like I need alot of resistance pushing back to get the arms feeling swole you know..txs
Oh absolutely, I feel these water bags allow you to go much harder due to the fact they are a bit softer to the hit. The harder you go the better the pump you’ll get.
Awesome Review!, I'm 200 lbs and not looking to be the next Iron Mike; it's just for workout, and I know how to punch somewhat properly. I'm trying to decide between the 86lbs (which seems light to me) and the 153 lbs. Could you help me make up my mind? thanks!
Damn, I was gonna say you should either get the bruiser bag or a traditional heavy bag that’s heavier because I’m comparing my weight to yours. I’m don’t know your height but I assume you’re taller than me. Then I saw the reply left and was a bit shocked. I use Aqua Bags Bruiser bag which can weight up to 160. I got it mine filled all the way to the plug which would be on the middle back of the head. I’m 166lbs at 5’5 in a half. I’m moving it around easy. I’m no pro or iron Mike myself, but I’ve always been a puncher since a toddler. Growing up, ppl always said I hit hard and even now. My neighbors down the street about 6 houses down would ask my what’s the loud banging. It’s me they hear. I’m will say the rubber and leather can produce a loud slapping/thuddish/ring if you hit it hard enough and depending on the environment. I got one neighbor who stands about 40 yards away over the fence watching me every now and then when I hit the bag. Kind of creepy to be honest. I didn’t believe it until I started recording myself about how hard o was hitting. Still not convinced because I did wanted to be a boxer. Unfortunately t never happened. I’m 33 now so yeah lol. I do dedicate myself to the heavy bag workout though. My point being is I know I hit harder than the I should for my size for someone who’s never got training, but even if you’re ok at punching you should get a bag that’s right for your size. I’ve always gotten bigger bags because all the smaller ones broke. Just got a new stand because I broke wielding on my old one. My set up is trash, but I work with what I got. I enjoy myself and have fun. Actually thinking about putting up a video or two of me in slow mo but a bit shy about it. Aside from working out I use it as a stress reliever. Any who, I’d go with at least a bag that weighs as much as you. Even though you’re not trying to be iron Mike, you’d still be facing someone your own weight. Will say the aqua bags can be messy when Letting them drain. Especially since f it the big ones. They can be slippery. Unfortunately got an all dirt backyard so draining it sucked when my last stand broke. Got a little muddy.
Great video! What size shackle would you recommend? I just got the 153 lb Hydroblast and they did not include a shackle. I thought about getting a swivel jaw instead so that the bag can rotate freely, but I'm not sure if that would really be ideal with a water bag.
I usually use a 1/2” shackle with the heavier water bags. I’ve used a swivel before on the larger aqua bag and it didn’t work well due to the weight of the bag, could have been a cheap swivel or rated for a lighter weight though 🤷♂️.
Hey Brandon, I am thinking about buying one of these bad-boys. Why did you select the 150 over the 86lb? I'm trying to decide on a bag. I'm 200 lbs and looking to use it for workouts.
@@Viva_la_natura Hi Paul, I chose the heavier one because it is closer to my actual body weight and more realistic to the density of the human body than say 86 lbs. I'm a big proponent of specificity in which you train under similar circumstances to the way you will fight/compete. I've had it set up for a week now and highly recommend it.
Good video bro. Hey do you think I can use the bag for muay thai too and of course boxing? . I was gonna get a longer bag but my 17 year old likes the tear Drop bags..he wants to use them for kicking,kneeing and boxing . I have elbow tendonitis so I was looking for something softer and this looks like a good softer bag that will be easier on my joints?? It also resembles a tear drop bag. Do you think this should work for my needs? .My son is a wrestler who used to fight in muay thai and boxing. We both will be using bag just for cardio and to have fun with it since I used to do some boxing and muay thai myself. Thank u. I also been checking out the liquid shock bag that has foam outside and I think a bladder inside for water so it supposed to be softer and good on joints? But like I mentioned before son likes tear drop bags.
These are definitely better for your joints, the aqua bag brand has proven to be the best shock absorbent in my opinion. Not sure if these will work well for kicks, we teach solely boxing. Thanks for watching!
@@dungeonboxingclub Yes, I can't find them, but I saw another video that showed the nozzle. Now I remember it and think I can make one up. Thanks though!
Have you tried the smaller aqua bags? I found a 12 lb bag but I wonder how much force it can take. I want to setup one in my apartment but space is an issue.
Yes I do have the head hunter version, it can really take a hit. Only downsides is for some reason it’s really hard when filled up and you get a lot more swing from it due to its smaller size.
@@lex.cordis Well, for the most part, but that’s not entirely true as I just bought one of each to see the difference. The material feels slightly different, and the Aqua Training people must do something to the blow hole to alter it, cuz their sensors would not go into the regular water buoy, only the Aqua brand.
So I had a parent donate some of the water buoys to our club, yes they are the same manufacturer of the aqua bags but they material is more of a hard plastic where the aqua bag has more of a rubber feel. For that reason I haven't used the water buoys.
lol! All this is is just a polyform LD series buoy. I suggest yall get that instead of buying from Ringside. Its basically the same thing but way cheaper. This shit is a RIP!
I actually like this one a bit more, I feel it’s softer to the hit. On the round ones I prefer the Aquabag to the ringside version for that same reason.
You convinced me I had to purchase it thank you for your review ☺️
You will love it!

Hey thank you for watching! Seattle has some great things going on, maybe one day we could train together.
Ive seen a few of your vids so far. Good channel. You got a new subscriber
Welcome to the Dungeon Squad!!
Nice crisp punches with good control! Good work man!
Thank you for watching!
This Was a Fantastic Video!! I Really Loved It!! Thank.You Soooo Much!!
Thank you!
My Jesus i Instantly subscribed! You the Man!
Thank you!
I'd recommend using dish soap to help work the shackle into the bag eye loop...using WD-40 risks reacting with, and weakening the rubber compound.
Thank you!
Looking sharp hitting the bag!
Thank you sir!
Great freaking video! Thank you!
Thank you!
I heard shipping as shifting, which is also true. They don't settle.
🙂
How do you compare the hydroblast to the hydrastrike bags which dont have the ridges?
I really want one of those!
Win94ae worth the investment!
@@dungeonboxingclub would you replace a heavy bag with this if you only have room for one?
Is the aqua bag better on the joints, is it softer than regular bag? I heard it hurts more when you kick it or punch it than a regular bag?
Definitely softer on the joints when punching them, couldn’t tell you on kicks however.
Thanks for the video
Thank for watching!
Great video
Thank you!
I have limited space would you rather have a n uppercut or this water bag .
Definitely the water bag!
hang it high, and it works as uppercut bag.

How do you like the regular water buoys I saw hanging up vs the brand name water bags?? I’m trying to figure out what to buy
They are the exact same thing. For example, the Aqua Training Bag is literally manufactured by Taylor Made. They are all just rebranded.
@@lex.cordis Well, for the most part, but that’s not entirely true as I just bought one of each to see the difference.

hello the weight of the bag please?
86lbs I believe
Do those ridges in the bag bother you at all?
No not at all as long as I have gloves on.
Is it true the bag releases a bad Odor?
At first they do but it goes away after a while.

Would you recommend a hydro or classic heavy bag
If you have a place to hang it, I would recommend the hydro. It’s a bit more versatile than your standard heavy bag.

The company that make it is called polyform these bags are boat bouys

How much does the bag weigh all filled up.
86lb

How do you compare the hydroblast to the round smooth aqua bags?
I actually like this one a bit more, I feel it’s softer to the hit. On the round ones I prefer the Aquabag to the ringside version for that same reason.
