nope never saw that thanks.. confirmed some of my suspisions.. might as well spend 250 on a **** as it will preform just as good as that 900 buck bubble king

that was a good read as the only reading i coule find saying cones were better were from the people trying to sell them.

This is why we will be offering both styles so everyone can have what they want

I think the cone argument is more to do with what people prefer rather than if there is any advantages, the price is the same so it comes down to personal choice.

Yeah it's nice that there is finally some objectivity and accountability starting to occur in this hobby as it relates to equipment. Hopefully the days of sensational unsubstantiated BS marketing hype are moving into our rear view mirror. Ultimately though, while the information is becoming available it's incumbent upon consumers to seek objective information and make informed decisions. We just need to see this trend put pressure on manufacturers to make some changes and justify some of their marketing claims *cough-Zeovit-cough* (as one example).

Shipping update,

Well we fell into the hands of the Chinese new year and the shipment will leave the port one week later than hoped, but by doing this we do not have to pay the increased prices of the sea freight company keeping the price unchanged

We hope to start taking orders from dealers the first half of March.

People always value opinions coming from sources other than their fellow employees.
