Century Wavemaster is the original Wavemaster that is truly making waves in the MMA world! Century comes up with some of the best innovative equipment and the Wavemaster is no exception.

A freestanding punching bag, the Wavemaster requires no holes in the ceiling to hang it nor does it need a stand. It sits on a sturdy base that is filled with sand or water and incidently, that base is interchangeable with the BOB products.

Century started the craze on free standing kicking bags. They haven't stopped growing and now their bags come in XXL.

This bag is good for the budding young martial artist, or those on a budget. Although there are two Wavemasters just for kids, the Kid Kick and the Lil' Dragon, if your child is approaching the age he or she might outgrow those soon, the Regular is perfect to grow into.

It is much smaller than the XXL, but it is sturdy. In fact it has a new base to keep it solid. It is wider and it is called the Wavemaster III base, so it keeps improving!

The base just like the other bags fills up to 270 pounds, so it is just as secure as the other Wavemaster models.

As with the other bags Century offers, the surface is high density foam, with a vinyl cover. And, No the foam does not dent.

HOW DOES IT COMPARE TO THE HEAVY BAG?

How the Century Wavemaster matches up to a heavy bag depends on how you intend to use one. If you are going to practices punches in moderation or are a beginner or don't hit that hard, this bag is awesome and so affordable too!

If you are a heavy hitter or are quite advanced, you might do better with the Wavemaster XXL or a heavy bag.

History of the Heavy Bag

Punching Bags have been around as long as the Martial Arts, hundreds and hundreds of years. Not only were they used by Martial Artists, but by those in the Military and for Weapons Training too.

makiwara
The Okinawan Makiwara was used for various forms of Karate. It was basically nothing more than a padded striking post.

The posts were generally about 7 or maybe 8 feet long and were driven into the ground to where they were come to somewhere along the shoulderline. A pad of rice straw tied with rope made for the striking surface.

The Makiwara was used pretty much the same way as a boxer uses a heavy bag, through practicing resistance, accuracy and force.

mook-jong
The Chinese Mook Jong was another ancient Heavy Bag. Like the Wing Chun Dummy, it was a dummy made from wood that replicated a human opponent in some ways. There were many styles of the Mook Jong.

Some focused on an arm and leg configuration while others portrayed the neck and arms or other key target body parts.

The Makiwara and the Mook Jong were primitive indeed but they got the job done, or at least to some extent.

Today both the hanging Heavy Bags and the Freestanding Bags have changed dramatically but with the same concept...working to perfect strikes, punches, kicks!

Changes

The Wavemaster of today is a product of modern technology and is has advanced so much but Century has made it even better now. If you've seen the old Wavemaster bags, there are some new changes. The height adjustments have also changed from 4 to 7 settings so you and your children can have even more levels to choose from.

Eric Wong trains UFC fighters such as Jeff Joslin, and he wants to train you as well.
He believes there is a "better" way to train and I agree.

This training method is faster and more efficient than most, leaving more time for skills training.

I've looked at a lot of training manuals, and I am biased about training.
I like what Eric is doing and recommend his book.
