Question about Xstar

I want preface by saying i do not have a particular preference in either boat and i really like both the G and the star. However... Why do u suppose that the star is getting very little love despite all the new tricks already going down behind it? I will admit the early video and photos were very underwhelming and i was not a fan of how MC handled it. It just looked bad IMHO. That being said I believe the proof as they say is in the pudding. w2w KGB 7, double half cab roll, etc i dont think i need run down the list. I mean Phil threw a Moby dick 7 and got 2nd place.
Discuss.
