Happy Thanksgiving! It's about the feel, and I know as an experienced duel line flyer you know what I mean. I have never flow a Reflex. I know it's higher end. Like anything new, in my humble opinion, it's better to start with a basic model and graduate. Bear in mind I am a rank amateur. I started with an EXP, then went to New York Minute, then a Barresi 1.5, and now a Djinn. I still love to fly my NYM. The EXP I break out when I see him just sitting in my bag being lonely! When you get the one your love, you will know. Find one that "feels" right to you, and as John always says, practice, practice, practice. Happy Flying!
