Magic Carpet??
« on: April 08, 2008, 04:47:01 AM »
How many of you use this?

It says it takes the place of 3 pieces of tape, is that true?

What is really good about Magic Carpet is thatit has tiny loops in the material allowing air to flow through the thumb hole.  The Magic Carpet actually prevents a vacum in a tight fitting thumb hole by allowing air to flow throguh the Magic Carpet.

How can I tell if I have to open the thumb up a little more? I normally use 3 to 4 pieces of tape right now.

I would take all the tape out, put in one Magic carpet and see how it feels.  I like to put black tape on the back side of my thumb to make it tighter if needed.  Some bowlers like to use white tape on the back side as well.  Thats just a starting point though.

PM Magic Carpet on this site.  I believe he is conducting clinics right now somewhere on the west coast.

Ron's homepage seems to be dead...
PM is not possible

Please don't tell me that the magic carpet is history...

Ron is conducting clinics on the west coast.  He may not be aware that the site domain name expired, so that is why I posted his PM contact for this site instead of his website.  So, yes, the PM link I posted earlier will work.  Ron just has to log on to this site.

Willis,

Ron's cell phone number is 336-971-7647

He just finished a clinic in San Bernadido, CA and probably is on his way home.  He carries some Magic Carpet with him and if you call him, he will drop ship some for you at the nearest post office providing he has any left with him.

Grayson, did you try clicking on my link?  Maybe it only works for me, but it should bring up this site's PM page with Magic Carpet already selected.  It might not work under someone else's account?

He was at bowling tonight.  The domain should have been automatically renewed.  He just got back this morning from CA.  I'm sure he'll take care of it right away.
