when i play catch with my swerve sometimes it hits the sidewalls. when this happens on my other heads it sounds nothing like my swerve. when it happens to my swerve the sound makes me this its broken, or it is going to break soon. has this happened to anyone else? or has anyone elses sidewall on their swerve brake?

No, but if you look at pictures of the clutch, and the new generation Pulse, Brine added a bar on the sidewall (Clutch being and Answer from what I can tell from the pictures). I think they should add a bar on the Swerve, but mine has yet to break after 1 season in box, and 1 season in field.

dont own one for that reason...they just look like they are built to break IMO

Don't own one, one of my dormmates at camp had one and I often messed around with it. It seemed very flexible and like it was built to break.

if it sounds kinda loud, it might not be on the shaft tight enough, i dont own one, but a couple of my friends have the same problem, one wasnt on tight enough, but others sounded like they might break

yeah that would be it. so noone's sidewall has actually broken from it.

my friend joes torque made that noise. we just put some tape on the shaft under the throat then put a wider screw in it and it stopped.

i have a truth and i had the same problem. The head isn't breaking it is just loose on the shaft. put a couple pieces of scotch tape under it and it is problem solved.
