It looks like their philosopy is "Well, we're not sure which suspension design is best, so we'll build one of everything imaginable."

I've been eying the Slayer. I might just have to add one to my stable. A buddy of mine rides an '05 Slayer and it rides prety nice even though it looks 10yrs old already

they're using different designs for differeny types of riding. a suspension design that works for XC is not going to work for DH. they reconfigure the designs to get more travel.

i like the ETSX the best...and the blizzard.

The frame is fine, but I wonder about the graphics. Are they coming out with a Focke Wulf special edition, also?
