Pros: low price, good spin time, comfortable weight, easy maintenance  
Cons: probably heavily lubed bearing, not a super wide catch zone

Hope this helps

Its a fun little 10 dollar throw… I have two main responsive throws, my 66 profly for some fixed axle fun, and my blue/grey squirrel, with a nicely broken in bearing… Its still responsive but I can almost bust out And Whut on it…
