Title: My new sf triumph 2.9
Post by: simonmay5 on January 27, 2015, 01:10:24 PM
I decided to get another sf after having a sapphire last year and really liked it I spoke to online stockist about the black edition and he said he had a couple but he said he had a triumph in the same profile for 145 pounds he showed me the photos and decided to go for it I glade I did it pings like a trampoline on steroids and with a 42 mm edge  :)

Looks a nice stick. Did you end up with any customs charges on top of the £145?

Interesting to hear, ive always been put off by OLS due to it. I just know my luck and i'd get stung after ordering when no-one else seems to :)

I had a fairly large order and didn't get customs. In my experience things that are called gifts are usually put straight through. I think they have bigger fish to fry than a few quid in VAT. The only thing for me was drilling because of drugs. It looks like if that happens there is not much you can do really.

That a great bat, seems everything is perfect about it. And for 145 its a great deal, other brands would easily cost over 300. Great purchase, hope it goes well.

I had SF Optimus, it was pressed not too hard or too soft. While knocking in, it was not creating any dents compared to other SS bats.

What do you mean by "same profile " ? Do black have a fixed profile Which the lower models don't do ? Or you are just comparing the measurement of two models ? Sorry for being so nerd but I am planning to get one in higher range with very different profile ..
