I always loved the OG Tritons. So I bought the first prototype a while back but this was so far away from the feeling of the OG that I stopped follow the development. What are peoples thoughts on the latest version?
I am specially interested in people who also played the OG a lot and can compare them.
Thanks in advance
I haven’t played the OG or the final production Ti version, but I’ve played protos #1, #2, and #3, and #3 is quite a bit different than proto #1. Faster, more power, better spin time.
My understanding is the production run is “better” even than #3, a bit more weight on the rims.
I know that’s not super helpful and I hope someone else chimes in, but I did want to say that I’m 100% sure the first prototype is not a great indicator of whether or not you’ll like the production run.
production actually has less rim weight than #3.
v2 added 1.0g
v3 added another half a gram, widened the gap, and added more ridges
production reduced by 0.25g and kept gap/ridges
Sadly I too have not played an OG, nor have I played the production but my V2 is one of my all time favorites lol
Thanks. Yeah I hoped for some major improvements since V1 was mhhhh. Maybe I should give it a try since I love the OG and good successor would be great.
Thanks man for listing the changes, that gives me rough feeling how to compare them.
You’re very welcome!
V1 proto was unfortunately meh. Production is fantastic. You will love it if you can find it.
Sounds good. Since there is a production run now I guess you where also happy with the result now. Would you say it has similar characteristics as the OG or was this never the goal?
More of a modernized triton. It’s hard to switch to Titanium them say you wanted to mimic the AL version.
Thanks. I am sure it’s nice now after all the iterations. I guess I will simply try when I stumble upon one.
Yeah. It stinks that it took 3 different sets of changes to land where I wanted it.
I can imagine it was a bit frustrating, but I guess it proofs the high standard of your products. I am happy you kept up that attitude for so many years.
