Default Tornado Alley F5 Base

Just wanted to poll you all on why you have or have not used the base.

I want to order some, and have been intrigued by them the moment they came out, but I wanted to avoid any misuderstandings or thoughts of sabotage because I am making some other bases ("they stole their ideas..."). As soon as our bases come out, I will try yours.

Thanks,
Mark

That would have been bases directly from Geno and his tweak service..
I sold a couple sets of bases to your dad in March.. before I was accepting Paypal as a payment option..

To buy bases.. You need to go to www.TornadoAlleyEFS.com

I'm not selling pre-tweaked bases right now from that site though..

Thanks

Thumbs up F5 Bases

Thank God I am a rookie so I can use the "B" word. I have ......boiled the F5's and smashed the rear prongs wid and nice and gently tapped the front prongs or used various dials and speed and strength. I know the "B" word is tabu in many states but, i had the pleasure of having my students commandeer all of the F5's Kansas Bill sent me from you guys thanks and I know the greatest of tweakers with the "B" word down pack will do 500% as much justice to those dark "knight bases".

Thanks again and looking forward to getting some more and sneaking up to my secret lab.

Coach Karim.

Default have some but have not started working with them

Geno,

I only have a few of them, but have yet to spend time tweaking them. Plan to put them through the LOMAX TWEAK SCHOOL process in the next few weeks as I get back to work in the lab.

Okay, I am not a great tweaker, so keep that in mind.

1. I found that the front prongs were too far back, causing my players to lunge forward and I couldn't fix it.

2. I read where someone had to turn them around backwards to get speed out of them. I just haven't tried that myself, but is that really the way they were designed? I don't think so.


I love their look, and their color, but I personally only got 1 out of 8 to perform decent. I'll post more later, gotta go.
