Yet another style from OZ

#1 Post by JPS »

Here is a clip of Nick's new style which is quite interesting and seems to deliver very good distances for him in practice.

Comments appreciated and I will pass them back to Nick as he doesn't have a PC.

Nick is currently using a TTR and generally a Peter Coogan PTEC or 6500 CT with mono mag conversions.

He has also just taken delivery of two new Century's a 14'6" TT-R and a 14' 6" WR300 which he will be working on in the near future.
It will be interesting to see how he goes with these in comparison to the current TTR and SS that he uses.

John ,

Distances mentioned (250+ ) are meters and he was consistently higher than his previous styles he was averaging around 240+ for the session :shock:
