Here are my impressions of the test throws.
I am the type of person who grips the back of the barrel and throws by pushing, so I had to push the barrel out well or the long rapier type barrels tended to go wild.

At first, I didn't know why and thought that I should make it heavier... But after trying it out, I found that it was not stable because of the long barrel, so the sales clerk who was watching my form recommended the Rocky.
The weight of the barrel is moderate, so it is easy to see the line and the cut is firm, so it never falls off. Then, on my first try, I suddenly got a hat trick (lol). Even the clerk couldn't help but say, "Oh, wow!

I think this barrel is suitable for people who always set the grip position at the same place, people like me who hold the barrel backward and push to throw, and people who think of throwing a ball rather than flying a paper airplane!
I had been changing barrels from time to time because I was not satisfied with them, but I finally found a barrel that I am truly satisfied with and I am thankful to the store staff (lol).

The clerk handed it to me somehow, and I looked at it.
"Wow, what a shape.... It looks so ghetto."
I thought.

But when I tried to grip it, I found that the grip position is always the best position!
The reason for that is the indentation on the grip. And the cut also makes the darts more powerful when you throw them.

It weighs 19g, but I don't feel much weight. It feels heavier than Target's Phil Taylor model 18g.
With a little bit of pushing force, the center of gravity in front of the dart flies with great force. This is similar to Mr. Maeya's model "Rosario" of Trinidad, which was sold until a while ago.

The X series has many special shapes, but it is easier to throw than it looks. Trinidad is coming out with amazing quality in both material and price.

The appearance is distorted, but the balance is excellent.
You can see that it has been calculated in terms of the push feeling at the time of release, the feeling of disconnection, and the cut.

Here are my impressions after a trial throw.
The shape of the barrel is unprecedented and it looks like it would be difficult to throw, but in fact, I felt it was very easy to throw.
The delta cut is just right, and it has a good release. The barrel itself is heavyweight at 19g, so even if you make a small mistake with your fingertip, it will not affect the flight.
This is the barrel I want to buy most now.

I switched from Rising Sun 3.0.
I got used to it very quickly.
It is quite easy to throw, and as you can imagine from the shape, the grip doesn't get lost.
The most important thing is that it is much cheaper than the pro model, and I think it is very cost-effective.
I will be a repeat customer!

The barrel has a very unusual shape, but when I grasped it and threw it, it felt surprisingly comfortable and I was surprised at how easy it was to throw.
It is a relatively heavy barrel at 19g, but thanks to the tight taper, you can throw it lightly while feeling the weight, and it flies beautifully.
Also, the back taper has a cut, or rather, three convex delta cuts, which makes it easy to check the grip position.
As for grouping, the forward taper makes the barrel come together beautifully. The grouping is as good as that of a straight barrel.
Personally, the only drawback is that the barrel is too short for my fingers to fit in my grip. If you can overcome that, I think this is the best barrel. Why don't you give it a try?
