It looks pretty sweet. I might save up my money for one. I like that it has spring resistance and an 'elbow'

What do you guys think?

really? whats that? looks like an arm to me

Yeah its pretty cool but 400 bucks cool? What do you think? would it be worth it?

Actually, I have come up with my own idea for something like that. My mom had a thighmaster thing that she never used, and by bending it around (no easy task) I think I have just the right resistance and movement to simulate an outstretched arm. all I need to do is find some way to connect it to the wall and Im good to go. I already kinda test it out, and it feels very "alive" and I think it would work really well. all that and its free!

A cool idea, but I'm wondering if it doesn't need to be stiffer, offer more resistance — maybe as much as the thighmaster, like mentioned above.

It looks like it could be useful if you need to go over the mechanics of a reaction for a straight punch.. but its so expensive. Just get a partner to hold their hand out instead.
