Rival Mark-I Banana Heavy Bag – Notable Features

- Compact circumference—makes it ideal for practising tight combinations without overwhelming space.
- Moisture-wicking inner liner—protects against sweat and helps maintain structural integrity.

Focused Target Training
The banana shape invites precise and angled hits. Uppercuts and hooks land solidly on the curved surface, while kicks to the body and clinch strikes land deeper into the bag’s dense core. The strategic combination of white strike zones and grey body allows for visual feedback during technique development.
Tailored Response for Dynamic Work
Weighing in at 130 lb, the Rival Mark-I Banana Heavy Bag sits firmly under impact. Yet it still offers enough bounce-back to keep combos flowing. Its balance is ideal for footwork drills, slipping-and-striking routines, and power pressing without becoming a static target.
Rugged Construction for Real Training
With synthetic leather that resists abrasion, sweat, and cleaning products, plus thick triple stitching and steel-reinforced hangers, this bag is built to endure thousands of strikes. Maintenance is simple—wipe clean and it’s ready for the next round.
Compact Yet Heavyweight
Though compact in width, the tall shape provides full-body coverage. Whether you’re practising uppercuts under the chin, boxing into the midsection, or delivering knees in the clinch, this bag supports full-body integration in tight spaces.

Does this come with a chain for hanging?

Hi Lucy — the bag has heavy-duty straps and welded steel rings built into the top for secure hanging, but it doesn’t come with a separate hanging chain or ceiling mount. You’ll just need to attach it to your own chain, bracket, stand or rig via those rings. If you let us know your setup we’re happy to recommend a suitable chain or bracket.
