 Spinwing finishing tape - alternative? Does anyone know of a shop where you can buy the finishing tape for top/tailing Spinwings separately from the vanes? I keep on running out, as when one vane comes loose or gets damaged, I normally have to replace the tape but not all the vanes. Is there a good alternative tape? Also, what effect do Elite Spinwings have compared to normal Spinwings? Do they give a higher/lower sightmark? Better groups...?

| I have a feeling that Aardvark archery sell the tape seperate... if its not on the website then give them a ring  Aardvark Archery - UK based Archery equipment We encourage you to try the shops that take the time to sponsor this site before you take the advice of those promoting shops that don't support AIUK.

| Why bother with the top/tail tape rip-off from archery suppliers? Halfords - car trim tape. Lots of funky colours/widths, and it comes in HUGE rolls for not very much cash. Pinstripe Stickers from Stylistick at Halfords # Spinwing elites - waste of time for a recurve IMO. Will kill your sightmarks and give you no grouping benefit (except, maybe, the big ones for indoors).

| Duct tape. Cut a thin strip off and wrap around. You find it waterproof and in a range of colours...
