New XS Helium Pricing

Edmond ok
All the Carbon hulls have gone up and are all very similar in price. (Other than rickter being way higher) Each builder knows what they need to make it worth their while (most of the time it’s not) but the hulls are selling, so I don’t get what’s the deal here. Supply and demand. We all have to make a living.

The nitro does look sharp and comes turfed, but he is new to the hull manufacturing business, and mark my words. He WILL go up. New product line, he wants to be competitive, but give it time and he’ll say F this! I have to make more to make it worth my while.

Just kind of annoying that this even has come up. Xscream has been copied from porting, to hulls and ergonomics to pumps. I wonder why prices have gone up. Seriously Dude? I'm loyal to xs bottom line period.

Damn i didnt realize the freestyle industry was this much blinded by the light lol. Cant ask for better custommers than thoese who do not ask questions when prices increases.
I love XS stuff and think its among the very best, the does not mean i see why the hulls raised in price, other than bigger bottom line.
Rickter and LSP has been copied to, these did not increase in price on their hulls.
LSP just reliased a new pro series model that is made from CAD design and CNC foam plug - just like Djr NItro (and this does not come cheap) - LSP Pro series price is the same as the revovler R.
But i get the picture - dont ask to many questions lol.

I am curious about saying their pumps have been copied. Aren't their pumps just a copy of Skats Mag pumps basically. Porting? Seriously, Chucky is the bomb but when he joined with XMetal he was far from the only game in town. Dont get me wrong, He is awesome and a great guy, too bad he got screwed by XScream and run out. Last I heard they dont do porting. Just sell CNC motors that Chuck designed and they are now basically copying.

Yeah, I don't know, but I see your point. I saw that on my 900rr rings when I bought new pistons and rings. They do own the company and I'm sure they paid for the r&d and the design. I get the Chucky thing too, he used to tell people the porting was a secret if I remember right. I'm guessing you know him personally.

Thanks for listening to my rant, I'm sure I'm wrong in a lot of ways based on your call out. I'm sure it's offensive deeper then I know, but there is some truth to what I'm saying too.

No builder is going to tell you his porting specs. Of course they have their "secrets"

I see your point, I was just ranting earlier and just let my emotions take over. Normally I don't chime in and just look for parts or sell stuff on the site. I apologize if I offended anyone or if what I was saying earlier was out of line or not accurate.

Hey buddy, i dont think anyone was offended - at least i was not. I think most guys can be a bit on the fence when it comes "their team or brand" myself inclued. But the freestyle sport being as expensive as it is, im trying to stay somehow objective - eventhough i have some brands i really like (like XS)
