difference between Mohawk Mission and the mission extreme

[Irish_Laxer]

I play lsm/d, i have a revo right now, and im thinking about buying a mohawk mission. So I was on the mohawk website trying to find out about it, and i saw the mission extreme, but it doesn't say anything about it.

So whats the difference between the two of them?
And what do you guys think of the mission in general?

The misson is offset.
The extreme is not (straight). There pretty sturdy, and not to heavy.

[Irish_Laxer]

whats offset and straight mean?

[Titanoh]

Offset means that the head is like..here I'll get pictures.

You see how the head slants down on the offset?
You don't really have to understand it, but get the Misson. The misson extreme is non-offset for Face-off men.

cool, thank you for the help.

Oh, look at the Mach 1 too.

[Irish_Laxer]

I've thought about that, but do you think it would be better for lsm/d than the mission would?

[Brandon303]

If you're using it for pole get the Mission, it's much beefier than the Mach 1 which is geared more towards attack/middies and is much more pinched.

Where would you recommend buying it from, mohawk themselves or battlelax.com

[Brandon303]

Check them both out and whoever is cheapest (with shipping), there you go!

How long does it generally take for Mohawk to respond to emails?

[VTLaxFan]

Call Mohawk with the phone# on their site, they are great people, and shipping is lite speed

I'll try that. By the way, I heard somewhere that mohawk strings some awesome traditional, would anyone recommend that?
