End of Line for Aerotech Staffs...

SO i just found out that Aerotech are not gonna be making staffs anymore. In fact, oif you want one then today is the last day you can order one

In light of this news...

I have a question

What colors should i get?



and/or should i wait for something cooler to come along? I've been waiting a while mind...

Wow - do you know if they have any plans to make a new, cooler staff at some point or if they're never planning to make a staff ever again?

*starts wondering if they're going to be dropping any other toys soon*

I think I'd wait for something cooler - what happens when your shiney new staff breaks? If they're not making any more they're not going to replace it, even if it's under warranty.

Yeah

They said they want to concentrate on the new programmable (from your pc) clubs. And after that, balls.

So it will be about a year before they start developing a staff.

I know what you mean about waiting. But i've been saving my ass off to buy these things and now its make or break....

grrr

Dude, if you really want one (and I lust after my friend's one daily) I say buy it now. Sure, Bov's got a point about it breaking, but if you're like every other person I know that owns one, you'll take REAL good care of it.

And if something better comes along in the future, then worry about that then. You might get hit by a bus tomorrow, but at least you'll be carrying a glowing rod.

Blue.

:R

just don't tell nate and buy his ones, quickstyle!

really though, don't wait around ado - they've had those new superclubs 'ready' since last summer.

remember the glopoi redesign?
whenever aerotech give a new product release date, you need to add about 12-18 months to it


cole. x

Well thats me decided then.

Now all i have to do is decide what colors

I reckon im gonna go for Bue and White in the middle and Orange on the tips.

Any recomendations? I've only ever seen strugz ones and they are sweeet.

get a shorter one.

the big uns are wibbly wobbly bendy flexy and crap.

130-150cm are the nicest IMO

blue with orange tips / white? ooooh that'll be pretty.

150cm?

Isnt the biggest size 145cm? Thats what i was thining of getting...

I am confused?

Whats the shortest you reckon i could get away without sacrificing geeky tech contact?

not to mention flowy ugly fun contact?

are the shorter ones thinner? probably not....

oops, getting confused by metricness...

i meant 4 foot-ish

which is actually 120cm

shorter ones are the same thickness

and i reckon should be better for contact, because they flex less.

120 might be a bit short for me i think.

i've spent the last two years playing with 150's

So it'l be 130+ at the very least.

140 i reckon...

I dont remember strugz ones being that flexi though...? The olderstyle ones were i know but i though with th new outer casing thet wasnt the case anymore.

even the newest 5 footish aerotechs i still find way too flexy for me. Less bendy than they used to be, but still bleurgh. The ickler ones feel far superior, but everyone gets the big ones anyhoo...

Big ones are good

The new design they had making them thinker and being filled with clear silicone minimises flexing.

Mine flex a little but not alot.

Good choice in colours Ado

Although against white the orange will look red - my meteors are that colour

Simian - your small

indeed what length is Bam's white\green? That is a "yummy length".

Smaller would be grand for doubles but i want to be able to spin one at a time too. And i think longer would be better for that....

hmmm

I got an email from them this morning that said they would not be taking any more orders for staffs after monday

Im gonna call them now and order mine.

Im still in two minds about the length.

but hey, long or short. They'll be bloody bright!!!

for Aerotechs!!!

exactly, its a real pity. Especially since i was holding out so long in the hop that something bigger and more badass was coming along.

Where are Iluminati at?

I just ordered em anyway ...

2 x 1.45m Blue and White Staffies with Orange ends.

The will still support the staffs till the end of there little glowy lives...
