New W&W Limbs?

I've heard that W&W are to bring out a replacement for the Winex limb. Are the rumours true? I wonder how long it will take for the others to re-engineer their limbs to compete with the Korean's.

Hope they do fetch a replacement/new limb out, as in theory the Winex limb should devalue, and I would love a set of Winex's (or what ever the plural of them is) Winexi, winexes?

Hi Buzz, Must be something about living in Durham, because that's what I'm thinking.

I wonder who'll line up to be an early adopter? Every new top line W&W limb since the Focus has had problems, resulting in partial or total recalls. Might be an idea to sit back and wait for a few months first.

i've been using Winex's for about 8 months now and they are a fantastic limb.

I wonder if the new limbs will be faster than the winex's ???

Of course some might argue that they had problems with the Focus limbs from the moment they started making them to the moment they stopped

SLOOOOOWWWWW

OK, so in fairness they were very stable and some sets were better than others - always thought the Winact was a better all round limb. (And yes I know some Koreans used them to set World Records...)

Agree entirely Stretch. I shot a pair of Focus limbs once. Slow didn't begin to describe them. I could almost get two arrows in the air at once, at 30 yards

To answer the first question Yes there is a new set in development but from what I have been told I would not expect them intime for xmas. A certain european archer is currently (may have finihshed) testing the limbs (i think) and the new risers. I would expect any new bits for next years outdoor season.
