Zach Gormley is difficult to keep up with. His tricks, play style, and needs as a player are constantly changing and evolving. But after years of development we’ve finally landed on this next step in equipment to help Zach fulfill the wishes of his imagination.
The Wish started life as a simple request: make the Borealis, but more. We addressed everything you normally need from a return top: speed, stability, and spin time. Then we went to work on tweaking the shape and weight distribution to lock down the feel…that intangible, almost impossible to quantify, you’ll-know-it-when-you-throw-it quality that we always strive for and that fuels Zach’s unique and incredible play style.
We’re pretty sure we nailed it. Zach loves it, and we hope that you will too. The Wish is a bi-metal return top with all the float you hope for, and all the power you’ll need. The shape and feel are exactly what Zach wanted…familiar and comfortable but somehow more.
Man, that looks like a tweaked Navigator. Specs are pretty similar, too. Considering how much I’ve been enjoying my Navigator, that’s not a bad thing at all in my books!
Yeah I saw that post like 2 minutes after asking the question… I should have investigated a bit more.
@nonja121 yeah I was involved in a discussion on FB about how similar they appear and someone said that the Navigator was at some point going to be a Gentry/Zach Basecamp signature.
Honestly the wish is almost identical to the borealis. You can feel the rim weight and spin time a bit beefed up. I have the Kodiak and the Akita and it doesn’t really share the shape or feel of either of them. It does feel more similar to the navigator but less sharp and I would say more o shape than the navigator.
