i first spotted these at campaign on the powerball stand and thought they looked rather nice, a closer inspection and they are as light as a feather! 53g now thats just daft.
after a few emails here and there i decided to get myself a couple (different bores). shooting them for the first time tonight i found them to be one of the most accurate barrels ive used, easily as good as a boomstick and weighs about a tenth of its weight if not less.
also of note is the sound signiture of these barrels, they are amazingly quiet, making it very hard to hear where the paint is coming from.

in all a quality product and well done to powerball for importing them

heres a link to the manufacturer

if you want to get hold of them in the uk phone ian at powerball on 01252 408 550 and tell you that matt aka jahlad sent you :)

Quite a few of the guys from Tsunami are using Stiffi's too and they all swear by them. 'Mikeanywhere' was so delighted with his that he phoned me after putting somewhere near a box through his (via his Timmy) and said he didn't have a single break. He used a couple of different types of RPS paint some of which was quite old.
I think his Stiffi is a 14" .692 but i'm sure he'll be on later to sing its praises and put me right if im wrong!
If only they did them in PINK to match my Evo i'd definitely buy one! Obviously being carbon fibre they can't be ano'd :(
POWERBALL is the place to buy them in the UK, I believe they're in stock now. Tel 01252 408550

As the lady says, I was competely blown away by it. I put about 3000 balls through it which must have been about 2-3 months old. I raised the pressure to 315 and walked the trigger with an average 10-15 balls a second and not a single break - impressive or wat!!!!! It is much more accurate than the boomie so I will be selling all my boomies in the near future. I used the 14" 0.691 and it coped with all the different sizes well but might be worth getting the 0.693/5 to allow for some HUGE paint out there especially in the heat.

Again as Gups mentioned, Powerball have them so call them on 01252-408 455 and ask for Jan.

Cheers

definatly agree with you on the accuracy....damn good, i did have one brake inthe barrel last night but that was old paint that had been in pots since campaign!!!!
i got myself a pair, both 14 inch, .689 and .687 as the severe i shoot tends to be on the small size. but i chucked about a case about last night and only one break....not bad for old paint (some was old some was new, the new stuff went thru great!)

the fun only stopped when my halo cracked a ball and smegged up EVERYTHING!
