Default No More SD/TOC at Troy built...now what?

I talked to Bill at Troy Built yesterday...

They are out of 37.5% SD model Yaks..

It looks like they are going to start carrying a line of similar models called Magic Hand ARFs... Will have to wait and see if these are up to the same level of quality as SD.. Although they are a bit cheaper than SD's arfs.. Well at least for the intro pricing anyway...

Has anybody heard when Thunder Tiger will start marketing SD models arfs???
Its been pretty quiet???? well at least I think it's Thunder Tiger...

Ordered my 37.5% with Rocky on Monday 2/11. Container came in a couple of weeks ago. I think they're calling them SD TOC. Rocky says they are working on the web site now.

However, Troy Built does have YAK 30's, 35's and Extra's.
