ESSX BUTTPLUGS

Unread postby theflyingkorean » Wed Mar 02, 2005 2:35 am

Hey, I was wondering if those prototype butt plugs were ever released to the public yet? Do they come on ESSX poles right now? What is the story if it can be released? I know that there are competing manufactureshere, so I realize if things are hush hush.

Unread postby Horse » Fri Apr 22, 2005 5:10 pm

i thought bruce told the plugs were really durable, but i have had the poles less than a year 2x5.10m (14.6 and 13.9 flex) poles, lost one plug but the other one on the pole i mostly used has already been destroyed...looked when i was moving the plug to the 13.9 pole and saw the pole completely pushed thru the plug...can i get a replacement maybe

Pole tips will wear. we have not finished testing the real expensive Flame tip and it is not available as of yet.
Sorry about our plug not lasting long. Try the pacer ones till we get our new one out.
