Yeah I think the same about the Hybrid
I personally think it would perform like the Pearl does if you dulled it with like a 2000 or 4000 abralon
but with the Mars (which has the hybrid cover) I get a different reaction than the Neptune hit with an abralon pad to dull it
so I do want to try the Nomad Hybrid out
or I might just wait and try the Dark Star,
they say thats supposed to bridge the gap between the Mars and the Nomad's
