it's only a thread, no need to get upset

I don't know what is up with me - I got as high as 10800 with my neon when I first got it - and accidently cleared it

- since then my highest is 10489, but for the last couple of days I can barely clear 9500.

Good job I got it for the exercise aspect, not to be competitive (yeah right

)

If you leave off it for a day or two you should find that you can score even higher

thanks - the muscles are a little bit 'tight' & letting them recover a bit is prolly a good idea, I'm still going to keep up a 'low intensity' routine, though, as it seems to be helping with the weak left wrist.

Still no sign of the powerball

Ordered it yesterday. Sigh.

Evening chaps. I caught the thread in our site stats and wanted to thank you for this much valued enthusiasm for our products - it is greatly appreciated.

There were a couple of queries in some of the earlier posts that I wanted to answer if you didn't mind;

1. We have just returned from a week demonstrating Powerball in Hamleys, London and had Akis, our World Champion Powerballer there with us for the Friday and Saturday. Interestingly enough, his presence proved that the current generation of Neon models are running about as fast as the 250Hz models; Akis hit 15350rpm on one of the demo Neons (which itself had received a fair bashing over the previous days, but was none the worse for wear) but could only manage around 15021rpm on his own personal 250Hz Powerball (the same one on which he performed the 15552rpm world record a couple of months back) - this should address your own concerns about the 250Hz being quicker than the Neon...it doesn't appear to be the case anymore.

2. If any of you lose your starting cords, then please just send us an email (info@powerballs.com) with your name and preferred delivery address and we'll bang off a couple of spares.

3. If anyone requires a wrist strap (and they really do help prevent those drops which will make the little guy knock for a while) - then please just forward your name and address to the same email and we'll whip one over to you.

There will be no charge for either service - please just accept it as a small token of our sincere appreciation for spreading the good word about this exciting product.

Finally - any questions about how to keep your new purchase in tip top shape, just mail us and we'll do our best to answer your query promptly.

Thanking you once again for your valued consideration and with our kind regards, Rory

Exceptional customer service!, if only our ISP's and Telco's had the same attitude.

I can only assume that was Rory, if so

lol, if ISP's were that good I doubt this forum would exsist, except possibly as a shrine.

I am amazed by the quality of the customer service, great service rory

greencreeper · 06-06-2005, 22:02

I can't wait to get mine - love to know what it is

Do you have to restrain them or something, like a giant jumping bean?

Nice one Rory........ever since you demonstrated excellent customer service I have been recommending your powerballs to my patients and recently to these limp wristed forum members

..........but I must say (as a regular and neon PB owner) that the neon (at least mine) is harder to spin fast.......have had both for over a year.
