lragsac,
You can order DIRECT from Patrick and be exempt from the $400 minimum order issue, I'd imagine.
Scottk was kind enough to send me a 'preliminary report' when prototype's were being tested and a diver with 30 years experience tested the wing and was very impressed with it. He had nothing but good things to say about that wing. Even if you were to receive a wing with a defect in manufacturing I'm sure Patrick would make it right. Thats the kind of people Scott and Patrick are. 100% customer service oriented. If I'm right, their items are all made in USA as well.
I purchased some of Scott's products and they were first rate items. There were no burrs and unfinished spots on my BP's and Weighted STA. They look as good as the day I bought them.
Knowing Scott, I have no doubts this wing is going to be 'the cats meow.'
