Its schweet... single to double concave like last year. Flip tips work great, very clean release, if you reach down and touch the tip it is totally dry. The tips save you if you start to nose in and also cut down on the spray from chop. New straps/pads are really comfortable. They feel like sneakers.

Awesome pics Henry, you want spray you haven't seen nothing yet (payback for Kill Phil Vol. 1 Wink )

I'm sure you meant flip tits and
it was just a Freudian slip. Laughing

Not that it has anything to do with
the release but the flipped tips are
actually V'd a smidgen. So they don't
flop around... you know, J.P., -like a
sheet metal part.

Twin tips are kind of fun strapless.
I made this pad for one of mine:



It's got a concave skateboard deck
shape. This one just screws down like
a plate binding. & I tacked the sides
down with some 3M 77 spray.
