Default Ice tips prototype update!









This coming week we will have blue, green, white, amber, and red tips in production. They can be combined with any color base for over 20 different combinations!

We'll be assembling color combo demo needles by monday. Think about your favorite color combo and post it here!

Do you have a favorite sports team? We can do the colors

These are going to be built very similar to the prototypes, but we are going to pump the tips up just a little on power. The first tips seen above were understated for a classy touch, for the demo models we are going to throw the juice to them.

That looks pretty sweet. Is there any way that the ice tip in a color would be brighter than the needle in the same color? Like a blue needle with a bright blue tip? That would be super cool, I think.

It's hard to wrap your head around the green/white. It looks very good in person, I'm thinking of running for myself.

They look good, but I still like the solid blue needles that you did for me.
