Watched the youtube trailer this morning. Interesting set up but I feel like going backwards and saying you engineered something new is misleading. Sales pitch to say they are the leaders in innovation IMO.

they just incorporated the cam system into the cables. almost like a binary cam system but the string is on wheels and all of the mechanical advantage coming from the cables. interesting concept, and am looking forward to shooting it.

No, just make a really big end loop on one end of the cable from what it looks like. shouldn't be a big deal. not sure what the hardware is on the cables though.

Got a quick glimpse when an email came over my phone but haven't had a chance to see what makes it tick. I'm a Mathews fan so I'll be interested to learn more. let us know what you think Pointy.

I watched the YouTube video and it looks pretty sweet. I've been a Mathews guy for 13 years and was thinking of taking the Elite challenge...but this might change that....
