Next year it'll be in FST. RF only currently.
What do others think?
Intrigued as to why you find FST easier to fix FW Fan? Hard to hide deck repairs on the bamboo, but the bottom and rails is definitely more simple than the Balsa and HD skins on the FST.
I guess the bonus is it's pretty rare to ding the FST boards...
Hey PRJ..do you actually work for FW? You seem to jump in and answer questions like you do...just curious. Bamboo being a natural wood is unique and random and any ding fixes stick out like the proverbial. White is white and can be matched pretty well depending on the ding fixer. I have only ever had FST except for one SP and when the ding was fixed it stuck out big time. That was done by a very good ding fixer. Have had about half a dozen ding fixes on FST boards and they all match up very well. Its not just bamboo its all natural woods. Any dings on the rails of FST have the same problem so FST is not totally the answer either. Just thought that was the reason why the MB was bought out in WRF...maybe Chris can state why the deviation away from Bamboo if I am wrong. Thanks.Quote:

There was a thread a while ago where someone asked FW Aus about FST Baked Potatoes and they were told RF only this year and FST will be available in 2013.
Sorry if it comes across like I'm sticking my nose in...
Just noticed you said WRF and not FST. Is there a new construction?
So White RapidFire = FST? Or do you mean a white sort of Bamboo?Quote:

Hey PRJ, no dont take it like that, I was just curious. I appreciate your input. Cheers mate.Quote:
