First Rate Boxing speed bag is the best in the world in my experience. I’ve been boxing for 24 years and coaching people for 24 years. Trust me when I tell you that this is the best speedbag I have ever worked with. The owner and investor Jeff Crawford is such an amazing person in general. The quality, time and effort that he put into building these speed bags is remarkable . I highly recommend this product for personal use or a boxing gym

I had been building out a home gym since COVID lockdown, with an emphasis on boxing training equipment, because of the great cardio that boxing provides. I did a ton of product research, but the hardest piece for me decide on was a speed bag platform. I knew I wanted it to be adjustable, because I am tall, but I also wanted my kids and others to be able to use it too. Every adjustable speed bag platform that I found on the market was extremely cumbersome to adjust. They require you to unbolt them from the wall first before adjusting--even the supposed easier ones with crank wheels. That is just ridiculous! Who wants to stop their workout, and possibly take off boxing gloves, to spend a few minutes using a socket wrench to adjust equipment?!? Talk about losing momentum and getting your heart rate down! So, I was very unsatisfied with anything that I could find on the market for a long time and had almost given up. Then, I discovered First Rate Boxing. They absolutely nailed it in the most obvious, simplistic way: they use the disc that is the wood platform as their adjusting mechanism. It is so simple and quick to adjust their platform as little or as much as you want--even while wearing boxing gloves. Brilliant! I had some initial sticker shock, but after studying it further, I was won over by First Rate Boxings design, quality, and the stability of their product, so I realized the value of their offering. Even better, their platform is a gorgeous work of art. So solid, with a beautiful, simple design, and a very fine piece of wood for the drum. It is truly the showpiece of my home gym. My speed bag workouts are excellent. No vibrations, and consistent rhythms while hitting it. I love the fact that anyone can easily adjust it on the fly. I couldnt imagine having the same joy with any of the other speed bag platform on the market.

I did my research and hands down this is the best custom speed bag out there. I was the first person in Canada to order it. If you want a cheaply made speed bag you can get that anywhere, if you want quality and a solid build Jeff is the man. Jeff was easy to deal with and always follows up, you don’t get that with the others. Remember folks “you gotta pay, to play” if you want quality.

First Rate Boxing was initially recommended to me by my sons boxing club owner. I ordered the speed bag platform as a Christmas present and I could not be happier. This is a high quality product that I know will be used for many, many years. Jeff was very helpful when it came to explaining the set up process. Highly recommended for any boxing enthusiast.

Hands down the best speed bag platform!!!! Ive been boxing/training for 21 years old (started when I was 7) and Ive used many brands throughout the year. If you want quality and a professional setup you cannot go wrong with this purchased. I first came across this brand while training at wild card and I loved how fast and responsive the bag is. well built and looks great. Highly recommend.

I just received my new speedbag platform from Jeff at First Rate Boxing. My 1st impression was how solid and well packaged it was upon delivery. All thru the process Jeff kept me well informed and helped me decide on graphics and swivel choice., The platform itself is super-well made and stunningly designed as well as visually impressive. Once installed on my home gym wall it became a great addition to my space. It is professional gym quality and even surpasses set ups in most gyms. The rebound is very true with very little vibration. I even have a picture of The Greatest Ali mounted on the wall under it for motivation and it doesnt shake at all. If the quality of the Platform is any indication I cant wait for Jeffs new bag gloves to hit the market. Im pretty sure they will be the best around. Thanks Jeff for the great product and I plan on spending many hours on it banging away. I cant recommend it enough. Pete W.
