【Lippoint】lit0101 's Japan Review

2016-12-05

I mentioned this in the Black section, but here is a summary as well.

Once it starts to loosen, it loosens as often as normal lip points.
In the worst case, I broke 5 lip points after 3 hours of throwing.
The tip tends to bend when it is bounced by the board.
When it bends, it is very hard to fix it.

In general, I didn't feel any of the points that are premium.
I want my money back.

Anyway, it is hard to loosen. First of all, you don't have to re-tighten it.
It seems like a lie that I had to re-tighten it every few casts with a normal lip point.
The material seems to be harder than the lip point.
It is hard to bend, but when it breaks, it breaks at once.
The Rippoint did not break easily even when it was squishy, but I feel that it is easier to break after using the Premium.
However, this resistance to loosening is great. I don't think I will ever go back to regular lip points again.

I bought it to try it out.

I see. It is indeed hard to loosen, or rather, it doesn't loosen.

This is a considerable stress reliever, so it is a must for those who prefer lip points.

I rather think that L-Style should clear out the regular lip from their stock and make this premium lip the standard.

I think it is such a good product.

Hmmm...

Is this good?

First of all, the base is too thin and there is a step between the tip and the barrel.

Tip has a protrusion and it is in the way.

When you screw the Tip into the barrel, you will feel a strange sensation on your finger.

I think it would be better to screw in a normal lip with pliers.

Most importantly, it's expensive!

I bought the premium one that says it doesn't loosen, because the lip points I've been using have been really loose.
It sure doesn't loosen up! It's nice to be able to tighten it stiffly without tightening it like the Fit Point Plus.
I also felt that it was more flexible than stiff.

However, the price and the number of pieces in it don't seem to match.
One more thing, my grip is not good, but I put my ring finger on the tip, so it hurts a little when I hit the spiral bumps.

It is surprisingly not loose.
It sticks to the board comfortably.
Highly recommended!

The first thing I thought when I tried it on was that it was a little hard to tighten.
But once I got it on, I threw it on for about 6 hours and it didn't loosen at all!
This is amazing....

I think the cost performance is quite good without any breakage.

I bought it because I like new things.

As advertised, the loosening is a significant improvement over the normal lip. The ease of sticking and pulling is perfect, sticking is close to the No. 5 standard, and pulling is better than the Fit Point Plus, which is (at first) stressful to pull out.

Bending and breaking are not rated as I change them as soon as I feel any discomfort.

It has a lot of bells and whistles, but I didn't mind them as much because they are not angular. It may be in part that the finger is originally just a grip to attach to the tip.... But honestly, they are unnecessary protrusions.

The part that bothered me was the thread where it meets the barrel. It is very slight (about 0.2mm?), but there is a bump. But it is a slight difference. If you trace it with your finger, you can feel the angle of the bump, and it does not create an uncomfortable streamlined shape. I don't want to be bothered with it, and it is a negative to the appearance, and because of this, I decided not to continue using this tip. It depends on the barrel used, but this is something to keep in mind if you are considering it.

It may be the most stress-free tip under the condition that no special tools are used. However, it would be nice if they would just change the threads of the normal lip... I think this product was aimed at reinstating the L, but it didn't pack much of a punch.

I was most surprised that the triangle at the very tip was hardest to collapse.

I bought it to try it out.
It sticks easily. It's hard to loosen, that's for sure.
I don't think I have ever had to re-tighten it in 12 hours of use.
The sting is not as good as the Fit Point Plus, but the bumpy tip makes it very easy to stick.
However, what I dislike about the RipPoint, the tendency to bend and droop, is still there, so it is a candidate, but there are better ones out there. It is still a candidate, but there are better ones out there.
Also, the price is still high.
