I removed the d-bars once from my Vortex to try to lose some weight from the front end . After shooting about four arrows without them I could tell a big difference in noise and vibration . I put them back on because the extra weight was worth it for me so I'm interested in the air-brakes now for my 355 .
The Micro seems like a whole different ball game. I want to try them myself and will report when I get some time to do some testing.
Yes this has my interest, looking forward to see what you come up with Boo on the testing of the new air brakes? Is it worth getting a set to put on my M355 or the Micro 335?

Dan is one of the most AWESOMEST people I've ever met! Such a joy to be around. Hope our paths cross again some day.

I'll bet he had Karin laughing. LOL

Incidentally Dan wife's name is Karen. Sort of reminds me of another great team: Don and Karin. Good people all around!

That is Dan Hendriks, from the Horizontal Bowhunter Magazine, the official magazine of the American Crossbow Federation.

The guy in the picture below with the stripped shirt is Danny Miller

Are you kidding, the gentleman in the striped shirt just doesn't fit the voice, but the guy in your first picture does in my mind.

Boo, when you talk about the Vortex scope, are you referring to the Xbr?

The XBR-1 is the only crossbow specific scope they have. The issues I brought up are no big issue in the end.
