Made this sandbag out of an old innertube that I picked up from a truck tire outfitter. In talking with Mike from CrossFit Jersey Shore his tutorial from his website is shown below link included to the actual page.
Homemade Sandbag
1.Get some old truck tire tubes, they're free.
2.One tube=two sandbags, cut them in half. Be prepared for the stink, they smell like rancid fish. That's OK, you will be sealing them back and won't smell a thing.
3.Seal one end up w/ a hose clamp and duct tape.
4.Use a heavy contractor bag as a liner (optional), and place it in the sealed tire tube.
5.Stand your sandbag on end and start filling w/ play sand, pea gravel, or a combo of each. The pea gravel will give you more weight. I found I can get from 30-80 lbs in one tube, depending on the size. The one shown is 60 lbs and there was plenty of room to add more sand)
6.Leave some slack on the unsealed end to give you room to fold, clamp, and duct tape the other end.
7.Happy Sandbagging

Almost looks like a Bulgarian bag, 60 pounds would be a bit heavy for Bulgarian Bag spins.
