Good review, you did answer the questions I personally had about this set up. Thanks Carlo.
No prob
I have been waiting for this review! Such a nice service ! Thank you Carlo!
Best boxing equipment review channel every time I buy boxing gear I make sure you made a review on it
Thanks brother!
Aqua bag really just slapped their logo on the Taylormade buoy and added $40 lmao
Pretty much lol
@@igrind510 why would they give you something for free💀 make the comparison yourself
@@BTboxing don’t know if you don’t know my son
Wow so... I have one coming from Amazon in the next couple days. Def sending that shit back. Wish I had seen this before hand.
Great review thanks! Considering one of these for my garage.
Thanks!
Hi Carlo,
Thank you for your Aqua punching bag and its sensor device video. Again, another excellent video by you in which I had purchased an Aqua punching bag seven months ago and everything you've had mentioned in this video was very accurate and it is a very good punching bag to have. Please keep up your outstanding boxing & equipment videos.
Best regards,
Kenny
Thanks
Awesome review I’ve just ordered 12in Aqua Bag can’t wait.
Thanks man
Awesome demonstration! Thank you sir
No prob
Going to buy it after watching this. Thank you!
No prob
Great review!! Always awesome videos!!
Thanks!
Appreciate you carlo we great review I have a lot great boxing equipment because of your review bro keep up can't wait until do the kwelus pro spring we got so people see how good the spring really is 🔥 up load
No doubt brother appreciate the support
You’re a fantastic elaborator dude.
Thanks
I've had one of these for five years, use it every summer with an outside setup, don't cover it- five summers, rain and shine, the stand is rusted but the bag is in flawless condition. I just empty it in the autumn and put it away for the winter.
Nice!
What outdoor stand do you use?
@@HighSpinSwingSpeed I don't know what brand it is, just a cheap one off Amazon. I use cinder blocks to keep it in place. I have a Balasz stand in my apartment which is much better but is very expensive and I wouldn't want it to rust and maybe not be dismantable after a full season.
Great review man,thanx
🙏🏼🥊
Fantastic Review!
Thanks!
Two things I forgot to mention in the video:
The aqua sensor does NOT fit the polyform aqua buoys. The thread and diameter of the fill hole is completely different.
If you have to fill the bag yourself, you can get a garden hose shut off valve adapter that you can screw on the end of the hose. That way you can turn the water on and control the flow from next to the bag without water spraying everywhere.
Food for thought.
Or one of those snake flexible hoses that expand with water and coil up when off. They have a shut off valve built on them. The iGrass brand on Amazon has lasted me a year so far with heavy use. 100ft, and would never use a traditional hose now, they’re bad ass!
Is the aqua sensor thread larger or smaller than the polyform? If the thread is larger, then it should be possible to 3d print and adapter. Please let me know! Thanks
Great review
Great review Bro
Thanks
Finally answered my question I’ve been researching for months. The aqua bag IS a different material than the bouy and IS softer than the bouy vinyl. My aqu bag arrives soon. I almost got the bouy.
👍🏼🥊
hey there, youre videos are awesome. also you should make a review on the Everlast Spark Training Gloves
Thanks man I’ll check those out
lol I just ordered this on amazon and I had 0 idea this had a sensor for better training, more excited I can't be already thooo
👍🏼🥊
Anti freeze works! I tried and left it there all winter. For this size 10 - 14 Oz of anti freeze is enough. However! You can’t get the antifreeze by simply pouring. I actually used injector to pressure press it inside the bag
I saw in another video where they first unboxed and filled the bag. The bag material seems very thick and stiff so now I understand why you suggested using air to inflate the bag first. I was thinking along similar lines by putting warm water (not hot) into the bag and letting the plastic/rubber material slowly reform from its' flattened shipping shape before fully filling it and stressing it to the max. A lot of the One Star comments was about the bag splitting and I wonder if filling it with cold water in a cold, flat, stiff bag might be too much stress for the material. In any case, I'd still be afraid to hang it inside my house. In the basement there is a floor drain in case my bag develops a split. Another thing I would have liked to have seen was some sort of metal/plastic circular ring or half circle between the "D" shackle and the rubber mounting hole - to spread the stress over a larger area. But, it may not be needed since I haven't read of any failures in that area.
Great idea! Filling it with warm water to let it stretch out is a lot more feasible than pumping compressed air into the Aqua Bag for most of us.
Yes the review is good as always but that fresh cut is 🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏼🥊
Nice footwork and video I’m from Phoenix 67th union hills living in Toronto warm summers here cold winters 🙏🏼
Thanks man
This is a great alternative to the Hykso Punch Trackers
Very much so
Another nice review!
Bit of tape might help the popping filler issue?
Yes, tape, OR, a shut off valve at the end of the hose so you can control the flow from next to the bag
I had one of those Aqua Training Bag thinking it would be easier on my hands, but for me it was like hitting wet cement; no bueno for my hands. I just ordered the Ringside 55 lb. Head Shot Heavy Bag per your recommendation and hopefully it'll be easier on my hands. Cheers!!!
Hopefully!
Bro, wrap your hands. These bags cant be beat, they're amazing
a lot of people forget to squeeze excess air our of the bag whilst filling it with water. This is what causes that hardness. I have used the same bag and it feels really good in fact a lot easier on the hands compared to other filled bags.
I have the 21" D Orange One Eye Round Inflatable Buoy. It looks identical your aqua bag. I might get the sensor just to see if it fits. It's heavy as hell though. I ended up buy the 1 Ton Manual Chain Hoist you recommended.
Nice
Just a tip. I have had my 21" bag for 2.5 years and what I did was fill it with water 3/4 full, then with a hand pump I filled it with air till the wrinkles went away (shove the needle of the hand or foot bike tire air pump all the way in). The wrinkles are very hard to hit in cold weather. I used a ladder to place the foot tire air pump on and filled it with air till the wrinkles went away.
Good to know thanks man
@@csquaredboxing You got it brother. Be safe and be blessed!
you can add a $5 shutoff valve to the end of the hose, so you don't have to return to the spigot. You're essentially bringing the spigot to the bag's end of the hose
👍🏼🥊
Another great video. I also have the 18" aquabag, so I guess this addition should be a no brainer? Also what gloves are those? I don't remember seeing a thumbless glove on the Rival website.
thanks and rival rb3
That's my dream bag
Nice
bought a 18" buoy on Amazon $50, works great
Nice!
Smart man
Orbit 3/4 in. Threaded Brass Shut-Off Coupling will fix the garden hose issue
Thank you
My bag just ripped above the hole where you fill it. Im so not happy 😆
Good vid my brother and pinch (fold in half) the hose to close the flow of the water.
And antifreeze will work in winter
Thanks 🙏🏼
@@csquaredboxing stay blessed
Hi…great review…Is the data stored in the cloud?…also is there a temp user/guest mode or does everyone need to login with their own ID?…Tks.
Another one. DJ Carlo !!! 😃 btw how do the rb5 compare to the rb3 apart from the exposed thumb and more padding? Is that it or is there more?
🙏🏼🥊
Another great product and review. I didn't know they sold this sensor.
21:40 I just went to the link provided in the description and the sensor's price dropped from $174 to $124!
Nice!
I used to have one of those water heavy bag
Nice
@Metal vocalists With highs please hahahaha
So why didn’t you show the Mount you used ? I would like to see what mount you used since the ones aqua sells are ridiculously expensive. Also I was debating between the 18” or the 15 “ for my garage. I park my car inside the garage as well so I’m wondering now if the 18 would be a perfect fit for me.
Never tried the sensor, but I love the aqua bag. I'd never go back to a traditional heavy bag. The ability to throw uppercuts is a game changer for your training. Looks like you need to add more water though, thats why you have the wrinkles. If you can remove that plug and water doesn't immediately start shooting out, then you still lots of space to add water to get rid of those wrinkles in the bag
For sure thanks
Thank you for your reviews. My son and I really enjoy them. We are debating between this agua bag or ringside hydro bag. What do you think is best.
I personally prefer this one
Great content! Looks like you can really work body shots too. I'm very interested in getting this but one concern. I have limited space where I'd hang it in my home gym in the basement. I'll have to take it down when I want to use my bench press, etc in the same space. I know you showcased the 18" and that's 120#s. Obviously, a pain in the ass to hang/rehang solo. Thinking about the 15" cuz that's significantly less weight at 75# and more managable. Question: Do you think the 15# is large enough to work body shots based on your experience with the 18#?
Thanks man, the 15# may be a tad small and is better for working mobility rather than power body shots
even at 75 pounds lifting the thing will be dreadful. it's not like lifting any other solid object. the water moves and puts all of the weight on half of your body. maybe if you can rig up a pulley system?
I like water bags, but you get a great quality using boat bumpers for less than half the price
Yup
Great video.
Did you try putting this on the polyform?
I would think it would work.
Thanks! Wont work with the polyform as they’re different sizes and threads
I hit too hard for my own good and my wrist are aching with or without gloves. I'm really looking at one of those aqua bags. It's just I'd have to get my peanut bag out and I love that thing 😞. Antifreeze purpose is to prevent water from freezing and it's not as corrosive to the engine blocks. I wonder though, who corrosive might it be to the aqua bag.
I bought a very cheap hose nozzle at the hardware store that had a valve on it. Less than five dollars.
Nice!
Bit of advice, fill the bag up more with water, I had one split after a left hook when it wasn’t fully filled like the one you have used for the review. Aqua training bag replaced it so props to them👍🏻 great review.
So how much water is held in it? I find it ridiculous that it would be filled with 120 pounds of water that is shit load of water.
@@m.israel2209 no idea I’ve never weighed it, you just don’t want the bag to have any indentation as that’s were my bag split when I hadn’t filled it enough. I do live in a Scotland so it could be that the cold weather contributed. I’ve filled my replacement bag up more and it’s been perfect.
Good advice
I think you just had a defect because aqua bag guys literally just colored a taylor made tuff end buoy, which is literally meant to stop boats from smashing into docks, so there’s no real strength worries with these things. Maybe a hairline weakness along the seam
@@ethanwilliamson782 i agree. plus canelo's hooks aren't ripping everlast hydrostrikes in half. some people will fill the rest of the bag up with air to remove the indentations. in the case of the everlast though, their directions specifically say to only fill it 80%, filling with air is good but not necessary, and finally they come with a 2 year warranty... i'm pretty sure aqua bag says the same. they make set ups for kids to hit them with baseball bats now!
I put anti-freeze in my buoy to be able to hang it outside and it was just fine even when it was -10°C for a prolonged period of time recently.
(Just mix the water and anti-freeze to the correct proportions for whatever temperature you want the buoy to handle).
I also made a smaller buoy to work as a headhunter bag that I store in my basement and hang up whenever I want to use it. I believe you recommended that in an older video?
Nice!
i was curious about that more so because the buoy material gets cold as well and it stiffens up. i guess the material contracts substantially in mild cold but doesn't expand much from very high temperatures.
I was just thinking how a bag would fair in my garage during the winter months… what an excellent idea sir! Thank you.
CSquareboxing .. Can you use the sensor on the buoy ..
Hey man your vids are very helpful, I figure you have a lot of boxing gear that is completely useless to you as you review so much. I am trying to train as best as possible in lockdown but as you probably know everything of decent quality is sold out in England because of the lockdown. If you have anything that has absolutely no use to you I would appreciate it a ton if you would ship something to me. I would obviously pay for any shipping costs, don’t worry if not man love ur vids bro keep it up
I just scored a 21" Taylor Made Buoy on eBay for $50! I am 6' 4" 260 and was wondering what affordable/budget gloves/size you might recommend for me to use just for striking this water bag? Thanks! Great content as always BTW! :)
for affordable but quality gloves I would go with some Rival Boxing gloves and as for size 16oz. gloves are pretty versatile however I personally like using 12oz. gloves… hope that helps!
Nice review. I'm considering getting the 15 inch Aqua bag (£110) or the A2 polyform buoy (also 15inch for £35). But the aqua bag is £75 ($105) more expensive than the polyform, would you say the aqua bag is still worth considering due to the softer feel of the fabric? I am happy to pay more if there would be some significant benefit particularly if it's easier on joints?
Get the polyform
You don’t even need to get poly form, buy the taylor made brand buoys and you’ll literally get an aqua bag for less than half the price, if you haven’t bought em anything a month longer that is
@@ethanwilliamson782 😃
I wish I can get this but I live in a apartment currently
you should review boon bag gloves
👍🏼🥊
I need a soft punching bag since I have elbow tendonitis
Hi would there be any difference between the aqua brand and any of the other cheaper makes
GREAT VIDEO CARLO REGARDING THIS EXPENSIVE PRODUCT I PURCHASED THE BAD BOY BLUE “21” INCH ONE AND JUST ORDERED THE SENSOR AFTER VIEWING “YOUR GREAT VIDEO FOOTAGE”
I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE SMALLER ONE BUT YOU SEE I HAVE THE EVERLAST OLD SCHOOL BAG STAND WITH THE SPEEDBAG PLATFORM I HAVE NOT INSTALLED IT YET BUT I’M COUNTING ON THAT EXTRA 90 LBS WEIGHT ON THAT WATER BAG WOULD BETTER STABILIZE MY SPEEDBAG PLATFORM ALONG WITH THE 3 SAND BAG ANCHORS I HAVE ON TOP OF THE PLATFORM I’M 68 YEARS OLD NOW BUT I KNOW THIS AQUA WATER BAG WILL BE BETTER FOR MY JOINTS AND MAKE MY WORKOUTS LAST LONGER, AND NOW YOU SHOWN ME HOW TO USE THE SENSOR TO KEEP TRACK OF MY WORKOUTS WITH IT I CAN NOT WAIT TO STARTED.
I’M GOING TO MOVE MY 100 LBS. RINGSIDE HEAVYBAG TO MY OTHER CENTURY BOXING STAND. THANKS AGAIN CARLO ON YOUR GREAT REVIEWS ON BOXING EQUIPMENT I PICKED UP A LOT OF GREAT TIPS FROM THIS REVIEW AND OTHERS.
👍🏼🥊
I really wanna get this bag but I'm having trouble thinking of a good way to mount/ hang this thing up in my garage.
Anyone have any good solutions?
How do you drain it safely after the "Aqua Training Bag" is installed?
How many oz is the glove you are using in the beginning of the video?
Thank you for this review. Will the sensor work with the orange Taylor made buoy?
It doesn’t
Thank you for your fast reply.
How can you measure the strength of your punches against others? Do you know what the average boxer punches in lbf? I just have no idea what any of it means - I know it’s pound of force but what is that and what does my number compare to other boxers
Do you use a spring with thatbwhen hangingit? Any recommendations hanging it through/on ceiling joist?
Yes it’s from ringside
I wonder where I can buy it. I am in China
I'm planning on buying the 18" bag, but the problem is the only place where i can attach it to, is where the attachment point would be 15" from the wall. So the bag would have about 7.5" of clearance from the wall (if i understood the dimensions correctly). Would you think that would work? I've understood that the aqua bags don't create as much movement compared to traditional heavy bags. And the attachment point would be pretty low so the chains could be quite short, which would also reduce movement. Also, the place would be in my living room, so how much noise would hitting it create? I guess one could wrap the chains with something so that could help a bit.
That would work, and you’re correct aqua bags are typically more stationary because they absorb the energy of the shot much better than a traditional heavy bag with bounces/ swings more
@@csquaredboxing Thanks, really appreciate you taking the time to always answer here.
What is louder to punch in my garage 75lb bag or 190?
What does “lbf” stand for ? And how can I make sure my number is good? I love the sensor and love the app! However, I noticed that my numbers are going up in that “ibf” (due to maybe training better and being more consistent in my training)
pounds of force
Is the aquabag as good of a cardio workout as a traditional heavy bag? I wanna buy one but not if I don’t get the great cardio workout I get from the heavy bag. Thanks!
Yes it is
Hey Carlos does it come with the chain to hang it from or did you get that separately would love it if you got back to me soon I’m going to be buying it this Friday since it’s my birthday
Separately
Will the sensor for the bruiser bag model?
Hey I got one of these at home and just took me 2 hours to take down because it was extremely hard for me to push up the aqua bag while it was filled and hanged. What is the best way to get these down? Any tools you recommend to take down the bag or any method of draining other than trying to push the bag up and tilt?
th-cam.com/video/hlnlDaQmhL4/w-d-xo.html
build some muscle
Just an idea from a guy with no friends. Pinch the hose a few inches away from the adapter and maintain control while the water is running.
🥊👍🏼
Does the censor work for other bag sizes? Also would the same size work for a heavyweight boxer?
It works for the other aqua punching bags (same brand) and yes this size is suitable for a heavyweight
I apologize if this is covered later in the video (still watching). I already set up a mount in my garage gym, and really only have room for one bag at a time. I ordered one of the smaller headhunter Aqua bags, but also want one of the big ones. How am I gonna switch them out without having to drain the big bag everytime? That seems like a pain in the ass! Really excited to use the bags, but I wanna utilize the different sizes. Theoretically, would I be able to safely lift the large bags off the chain and place it on the ground while I use the smaller one? Thanks

@csquaredboxing awesome dude. Thanks.
@@jakepayne2985 no prob
Why’s is not full?
I have the red buoy but the buoy is harder but doesnt work you the way the aqua bag does. The aquas makes you dig and it drains your power you have to work harder
👍🏼🥊
Which lbs is the aqua bag
Can these break ?
Hi mate, do you think the 190lb bag would be too heavy for a 2 x 6 joist ?
Yes, I would brace a piece between two joists and hang from there
What gym do you train at in Phoenix?
Hey, I hear some ppl say if it’s cold they are like hitting concrete? Any though? Thanks!
The rubber is a little harder in colder climates
based
Is there a difference between these and the buoy bags?
No
what's the maintenance like? how often should you change the water? any chemicals need to be added to avoid algae and other yuk from forming? thanks.
It’s an aqua punching bag, not a swimming pool
@@csquaredboxing yuk!!!
👍
🥊🥊
hey man, how heavy is the bag after filled? and will you recommend it to be hung to a ceiling or a bracket?
About 100-120 hang to stud
@@csquaredboxing thank you brother 🤝🙏
This the bag I wanting whAT SIZE IT
What weight is this rated for? Could i Install this onto a regular drywall ceiling?
As long as you’re connecting to a stud
when is the kewlus spring vid coming ?
Next few weeks
@@csquaredboxing nice
Why is the valve not at the top so you can fill it to the top I have 21" love it
it needs some air to expand
@@csquaredboxing fair enough ,
Woah, nice. I remember when you uploaded your Polyform video. Would you say there’s a difference or basically the same?
different than the polyform yes but same as the Taylormade boat bouy they both say Taylormade
Taylor made isn’t as stiff
@@csquaredboxing not true, both Taylormade bags and aqua are 3mm thick I've cut through both... the owner of Aquabag (newyorkboxingandfitness) bashes on people trying to save money on instagram.. Its awesome having different colors but when you are charging that much of a premium to a lot of fighters/people who are already low on cash is shady.. it's tough times out here
@@12thRoundBoxing I know that. I was saying that aqua bag isn’t as stiff as the polyform.
21 inch or 18 inch? I feel like 18 might swing too much?
Up to you bro, all personal preference
Nice review, have you heard of striketek sensors or everlast what's your opinion on those
I have but haven’t used them
@@csquaredboxing I have the striketek, it's goes under wraps it can be finicky with the disconnects sometimes
But the information I got off them, I was able to adjust my body mechanics and increase my punching power because it gives you your speed and lbs force on each hand individually in real time
From what I've gathered they make sensors for Bellator as well, haven't used in awhile because of disconnects and one of the sensors was draining quicker
Punch trackers are great tools that push you to stay busy I love them thanks for bringing awareness to them
What is the actually technical term for those water wrecking balls?
Aqua buoy
What is the weight of that aqua bag you are using?
I think 120 or 190
7:48 don't overtighten this or you'll be screwed😂 nice one!
