Title: Shock Doctor
Post by: langer17 on November 01, 2011, 03:38:45 PM
I will be getting one of these, just don't know which one to get out of the Titanium Alloy Flex or the Carbon Flex. I think the Titanium might be overkill, but was wondering if anyone could help me out.

I don't think anything can be overkill in regards to protecting your crown jewels

I would have got the titanium one but couldn't find one anywhere in the UK, so opted for the carbon one. It does the job

I saw a youtube video of someone driving over the Titanium one and the box was completely fine so that would be maximum.

I think the carbon fibre one is more flxible than the titanium one, but the titanium one obviously protects you more.

The one I have atm would do basically nothing were I to get hit, lol.

Deffinately. I was thinking either this or the nutty buddy, but the SD looks more comfortable.

I've got the titanium one. Cost about £15, If  nothing else it is the most comfortable box I've had. The cushioning is great. If people are willing to spend £200 for an arytek for greater protection, £10 more for a box is a bargain!

So true - the box is an oft overlooked item, myself included.

Yes, the words this picture speaks are  "I'm about to put my willy into something that looks like a Medieval instrument of torture!"
