[mooserverte]

sorry about earlier and my difficulties here are some more of my pics. i don't have great gear....... what would you guys recommend? and I NEED BETTER MITTS! what do you suggest?

 

[Gregolian]

My suggestion for mitts (from hitting them and from suggestions of people here):
Ring To Cage Air Punch Mitts

TITLE GEL CONTOURED PUNCH MITTS W/TAP PAD

Winning Products
(The CM-50s, my uncle in Japan has a pair from when he used to box trying to be an amateur [then life happened so to speak] and they feel like pillows)

 

[mooserverte]

thanks! i will look into them

 

[Gregolian]

Considering you are in England I don't know how easy it would be to get Winning stuff though.

Focus Pads - Martial Art Shop

[Gregolian]

The Midi ones have a wrist pad for the holder and have two straps on it so it doesn't shift in the hand.

Of the ones on that site (one of these may be out of your price range) I personally would spring for these:
Pro Box Blue Air Focus Pads - Martial Art Shop

Fairtex Flat Focus Mitts - Martial Art Shop


Send a PM to this guy:
Sherdog Mixed Martial Arts Forums - View Profile: ClampXVII

He could potentially give you better info about focus mitts than I could.

Thanks. That's what I thought but a quick search for "tdk clogs" didn't get me anything relevant :redface:

Once the rest of my gear comes in I will upload a pic!

 

[mooserverte]

haha, yeh, i imagine it wouldn't

 

[mooserverte]

the thing is that i already have flat pads and if the holder doesn't hold them flat, the hand just skids off! aren't curved pads better for punches??

I honestly don't know if curved pads are "better" or not though I guess I can see what you are saying.

I would HIGHLY suggest looking at the Title "gel" line of focus mitts.

 

[mooserverte]

what are the main advantages for flat pads over curved?? and i will take a look at them

 

[mooserverte]

to be honest, i don't think that i need mitts that are that expensive....or do i??

my head guard arrived! here it is! i have punched myself in the head with it and the protection is amazing! the visibility is also perfect. after my bag workout with it on (to see how it handled sweat) it wiped off sooo easily! i love it
