300lbs is a pretty big weight diff. I have 1100's in the rear lockers and the 1150 front bag in my XLV and could use more (maybe a 450 on the surf side)

FWIW I got one of each. Neither showed up "perfect" but they are definately new and may be blems. Very minor finish issue on the Squirt and what looks like a tiny blue patch on the Mucus (?). I...

I guess this is what I'm curious about -- I already have a set of HLCDs which get plenty loud at the end of the rope, but contribute nothing to SQ in and around the boat. LOUD isn't the only metric,...

From an engineering standpoint, getting all that to work is pretty cool. But that's some lame King Of The Lake douchery IMO. No offence Ryan, glad someone is getting paid :)

I missed the show on Lake Tye (more like Tye Pond, lol) but I did see the setup when I drove by. It's like 1/4 mile from my house. When is the deal on Lk Stevens? That's my go-to lake.
