Miggles Proline Rookie Weights

[Norbert Revels]

China is just using whatever in the mix, LOL.

Here are the average weights on the 4 runs of proline strong rookies

1. 1st run comes in at 9.8 to 1.00 for the whole pack.
2. 2nd run comes in at 9.6 and 9.7 for the whole pack. lime green
3. 3rd run comes in at 9.0 to 9.2 for the whole pack. dark green
4. 4th run comes in at 9.2 to 9.4, for the whole pack, this average was for both (hard and soft). light lime green

P.S. Anybody have any 1st runs they want to trade.

It looks like we need more alternatives to Proline bases. For what it's worth I've sent them an email about the quality of those bases. To date.......I've received no response.

It's very dark guys, I did it last night, I will redo it soon.

I'm showing some strengh test pushing 18 grams, my OLmen is 3 grams, I've also got some WR action going with some blitzer work outs, this is just a VERY small sample of what I have planned for you guys, in the near future I will have plenty youtube videos on showing how I myself tweak bases, it's not the only way, but it's how I do it, I will show everything step by step, for speed and power, it will be clear and precise, nothing like this, LOL, after I put them out I will be retiring from tweaking and start more on concentrating on play in my league and tournament play.

P.S. Theres lots of good tweakers out there, so for those of you who don't have time to sit for hours and tweak, theres cats out there who can help.

Norbert,

I watched your YouTube video. I loved the action. Mount the left and right sides of that 18g sled on a base. Then run that test.

Warning To All Coaches Be Careful If You Buy Proline Bases From Any Coach , The Average Weight Is What Norbert Said , So If You Buy A Proline Base From A Coach And The Weight Is More Then The Average Weight Then That Base Is Not Right And Should Not Be Able To Be Played With. It Is A Illegal Base.

Some Coaches Have Proline Bases That They Bought From Coaches That Alter The Bases With Whatever , And That Maid Them Weigh Moor Then What A Proline Should Weigh.

No Proline Rookie Base Should Weigh Moor Then
1st Run Proline Rookie Bases 1.0
2nd Run Proline Rookie Bases .92 To .96 Dark Green
3rd Run Proline Rookie Bases .94 To .98 Lime Green
4th Run Proline Rookie Bases .92 To .98 Light Lime Green

SO IF YOU GOT A PROLINE ROOKIE BASE THAT WEIGHS MOOR THEN 1.0 IT IS A ILLEGAL BASE

Jimmy Davis

So Be Very Careful

[Norbert Revels]

Hey Maurice, that 1 cat would be going to the hospital if that sled had bases on it, but I will do that when testing my whole line.

P.S. I love that idea.

Norbert

Jimmy,

What are these coaches doing to those Prolines. Boiling???

Lil 2 much 4 me fellas...total weight is total weight whether it is 3.2,3.3, or 4.0. I can't take the time to remove someone's figure from the base just to see if the base weighs more than the stats given. I know for a fact that if you try boiling these bases, they will shrivel, melt, and disolve. Not saying that they can not, and are not being altered in other ways...I don't know. What I do know is that HONESTY, SPORTSMANSHIP, HONOR & INTEGRITY really needs to be the focus IN EF/MF, if we want this hobby to prosper.

Illegal??!! If your league has a rule that weighs only the base by itself and sets a limit, maybe then yes. I think creating a panic about "illegal" bases and coaches allegedly altering a base may be asking for trouble and arguments on this forum. I never liked the idea of weighing a base and figure separate to acheive a total allowable weight. They don't perform separately on the field, they work together to acheive their intended result.

The illegal claim and the heed to caution may be overkill.

If any coach is altering these to increase weight and it is undetectable by the naked eye , clue me in on the technique. Adding 0.05gm is very little and can easily be a manufacturing variance or a scale variance. Remember where these things come from (both the bases and the cheap scales we all use), a place where quality is not job one.

I Give A Rats ********** Who Much A Base Weighs If It Weighs Moor Then Its Suppose Two Then They Are Trying To Cheat, Because We Don't Allow Boiling Or Chemical Add Bases, And If You Or Any Coach Use A Boil Or Chemical Base Then Your Cheating .

So Just Be Careful And It Does Matter How Much A Base Weighs Because If Someone Add Something To The Base To Make The Base Stronger Then Thats Cheating.

Not sure if this will help you guys or not..
But I looked over the 2007 NHFL rules.. and they had the Maximum weights on Proline Rookie bases at 1.1 grams..

It's gonna take a lot more than a tenth of a gram to effect things..

Just a thought.. I've never tried to boil a proline base.. but.. from looking at and feeling the plastic.. I don't think they would take well to boiling.
