A pearlized version that's more skid/flip than it's solid counterpart?

Storm might really be on to something there.

Hopefully it is skid/flip like the old trusty Fired Up was, only a bit stronger.   I find the Rapid Fire solid a little too strong up front, at least for what I am looking for.  I really miss my Fired Up when I need something to clear the front and recover.

I've been lucky long enough...now I'd like to get good.

Britton, does it skid/flip more than the T-Road Pearl?

That has been my go-to skid-flipper for a while now... Just drilled a new one the other day too and a Fired Up 2 so the RFP is going to have to impress to make it into the bag!!

My opinion is yes...its a little cleaner through the front than the t-road pearl, but turns the corner much harder...
