Hi guys.
I've been lurking for a while and decided I'd sign up.
Looks like some good information and some pretty impressive craftsmanship going on here.
So far I only have a wire frame Trumark, but I'm enjoying learning to shoot again.

Yeah, I'm kind of seeing that, though I'd like to try out a Dankung and those crazy double-looped Chinese tubes.

Thanks for the welcome, guys!
I'm sure I'll pick up another shooter or two here pretty soon. I already have my eye on a couple. ;)

I sell a high density foam rubber grip that fits right over the Trumark S9 handle. It makes it more comfortable to shoot and stronger. Also it is easy to put flat on the S9 if you want to try them. Here are a couple of pictures. -- Tex
One picture shows a home made flip similar to Trumark S9 with Flats mounted. The other picture shows a S9 with the foam grip installed that I sell.

Oh, nice!
I actually pulled the plastic grip and paracord wrapped mine (not very well, but anything was better than that oddly shaped handle it comes with).
I'll probably stick to tubes with this frame and pick up something built for flats... any excuse to buy more toys, right? :)

We may definitely do business for band sets, though. I love those formed pouches!

I think it would be great to get kids into this sport. Everyone cant play some sports. Even handicapped people could compete at any level in this sport.
