Don't hold your breath waiting on them. So far, the info has been nothing more than snake oil. They quickly became a joke on AT a few months ago when the inventor refused to provide arrow weight or fps. Then the fact came out that his barn burner model isn't even powered by bent limbs, but rather some kind of spring piston system. I've heard them referred to as "Tailspin", lol.

I've heard them referred to as "Tailspin", lol.The show is still going on over "there". Seems CA regs state bent limbs as a requirement for a bow. The CA info came after he stated he had already contacted all 50 DNR and they said no problem. I'm not sure oil is the correct term for the slippery stuff in this case.
