What is claimed is:
1. New and improved martial arts striking apparatus, comprising:
- a generally planar striking board;
- mounting means for mounting said generally planar striking board perpendicular to and rotatably with respect to a vertical plane at predetermined different vertical heights with regard to said vertical plane and rotatable about an axis perpendicular to said vertical plane at predetermined different angles with respect to said vertical plane, said mounting means including resilient means and upon said striking board being mounted in a predetermined position and upon said striking board being struck a blow, said resilient means first for permitting said striking board to pivot out of said predetermined position in response to said blow and thereafter said resilient means for returning said striking board to said predetermined position;
- said mounting means further including a mounting rack of predetermined length provided with a centrally formed and vertically extending T-track and for being secured to a generally vertical surface, a first mounting member provided with a plurality of holes extending therethrough, a plurality of nuts and a plurality of thumb bolts, said nuts for being received slidably within said T-track at said predetermined different vertical heights and said thumb bolts for extending through said holes provided in said first mounting member and for threadedly engaging said nuts, and upon said thumb bolts sufficiently tightly threadedly engaging said nuts at one of said predetermined different vertical height, said first member being secured to said mounting rack at said one of said predetermined different vertical heights; and
- said mounting mean further including a second mounting member for being positioned opposite said first mounting member and a generally L-shaped pin, said first and second mounting members each provided with a generally cylindrical member and extending towards the other cylindrical member, said cylindrical members each provided with a plurality of transverse holes extending therethrough and at least one of said cylindrical members being a hollow cylindrical member dimensioned to permit the other of said cylindrical members to be slidably and rotatably received therein, upon the other of said cylindrical members being received in said one cylindrical member and upon predetermined holes in each of said cylindrical members being aligned, and upon said generally L-shaped pin being extended through said aligned holes, said second mounting member being positioned at one of said predetermined different angles with respect to said vertical plane.
