[MENTION=99188]tetonrider[/MENTION], I'm actually not trying to convince you whatsoever, I'm quite confident in the advice/services I've gotten. Yes, I'm a newby but I have a pretty decent BS meter.
I actually am just relating what someone else has said. If you wanted to argue about the Shiv or whatever else with him, you'd have to talk to him yourself. You would have a great conversation, I'm sure, I wouldn't mind being there to hear it. So if you ever come to LA, I'll book a follow up fitting, you can come a yammer away and I'll just listen to you both.
I guess for some reason I feel a little weird posting his opinions on-line and then identifying him by name. Maybe I guess it's only fair that if he wants to get into a BF conversation about it that let him speak for himself. However he's aware of BF and does not participate here. I'll just PM you a link to his site and you can read about the stuff he does. There's lots of info about his aero testing of people. I'm not sure that there's much (anything?) about aero testing of equipment on there. I suspect that is coming relatively soon however because he told me they have decided to publish all their equipment aero testing data on the website. They are just in the process of triple-checking everything, they don't want any mistakes getting on the site because they are aware of the impact their data has, especially on smaller companies. I'm sure this process is going to take as long as it takes, so no idea what "soon" really means. But if you don't see what you want at the site now, check back "soon".
The Shiv comments were for sure not pertaining to me. It was before we got started.
