Doug had some nice things to say about these, but reported them as out of stock.

They are now back in stock. See alpkit.com

That's true- but the new version is different:

- They now use a different carbon fiber shaft
- They are also about 1 oz. heavier (mfr claimed 7.6 oz (216 g) vs. 6.9 oz (195 g) claimed for the older version).
- On the other hand, they are also about $10 cheaper.

Definitely worth a look!
