Product Description

We get it. Some decisions can be almost impossible. Like choosing whether to own the iconic Wavemaster punching bag or the infamous BOB XL. Well, now you can get both for the price of one. We like making things easy. Since the wavemaster & BOB XL use the same base, just swap the tops when you're ready to change up your training. BOB XL - Body Opponent Bag A great training tool for any martial art. He is sturdy enough for kickboxing, muay thai, karate, taekwondo, and other striking arts, and his features allow him to be used for tactical training arts such as jeet kune do and krav maga. Manikin: 30" x 20" x 10" Base: 24" Diameter x 19.5" Tall Approx. 270 lbs. when filled with water. Adjustable height: From 60" to 78" Original Wavemaster Replacement Top The Wavemaster is adjustable! Whether you’re working oblique kicks or head kicks, you can use the Wavemaster. The bag section of the Wavemaster is 24” tall with a 13” diameter. This is the top only, not the full unit.

Customers like the adjustability of the boxing ring. They say it's great for anyone and can simulate a different sized fighter. They also say it is relatively easy to adjust the height, and the torso can be changed easily. The height positions are a great feature, and provide a lot of variety. The lowest setting is a decent height for their 7 year old son, and moves up nicely for them. The price is expensive, but it'll last a long time and is adjustable to man size.

"Wow where can I start?Its life size and adjustable. so you can simulate fighting someone taller or shorter then you...." Read more

"...He is a great catch! Has several height adjustments...." Read more

Customers are mixed about the weight of the punching bag. Some mention that it's plenty heavy, while others say that it is lightweight enough so that they can move it around easily. Some say that the sand is heavier than the water, but much harder to get into the container. Others say that after 300 lbs of sander it is harder to move.

"...about Bob is that even if he is fully filled with water, the base will scoot around as you beat on him...." Read more

"...And the best part, you can grab it by its head, pull it down and give it a good knee to the stomach, chest or head...." Read more

"...He does move around a little but nothing crazy where I would have to keep resetting him. That's the nature of kicking anything really...." Read more

Good customer service
I've used bobs for a long time. Was very excited to add one to my home gym.. bit the one I reviewed was obviously a return. There was writing and marks on it, disappointing but liveable. The major issue I had was with the base the bottom is warped, and it won't sit level or stable on the ground. I am afraid to fill the base because if the bottom is warped I'm not sure it would be water or sand tight and it is going to be used in my house.Pretty disappointed with my order right now. I reached out to century to have this remedied, will update my review thenUpdate. I recieved a new base from century and was told the writing was a quality control mark that is the date of manufacture. Much happier now

El artículo llegó dañado. El resto es buena calidad, pero no sé si venía así de fabricación o en el traslado de la paquetería. Uno sabe que el producto es para golpear, pero por el precio espera recibir un buen estado.
