Archery Gear Review: Sebastian Flute EVO Riser and Barebow Weight

[@moltenbullet]

Coming back into archery at 33, having stopped for about 8 years, after shooting competitively for about 7 years before stopping. Been extremely useful content, thanks for all this! Can't believe how lucky new archers are that an Olympian archer is making such important content for the sport. (My last bow sets were essentially the apecs and nano carbons, and the hpx with f7s, at 44lbs).

[@ASarcherAS]

Hey Jake, i think that you purchasing the equipment and selling it back to the community is a great idea because i think with your backing of equipment, it will sell just as easily if not faster because we know it's coming from you. I personally have bought the wiawis ATF-DX (blue, exactly the one you reviewed months ago) shortly after your review as i loved the color and the look. Your review was the cherry on top and had it not been for your review, i would not have known about the new riser and its color options.

[@tomtolentino7575]

Hello Jake, definitely your Idea on selling previously reviewed products would be an awesome thing. Besides, as a consumer, this would be already a great way for the product to not only be “ broken in “ but to have an overall review, from your perspective the consumers can find very useful information. Especially for those first time archers, and seasoned alike……thank you for all you do in the archery community 😇🏹🏹🏹🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍

[@archer1989cy]

Hello Jake, congrats for the unique content you are providing the archery community! An idea would be to sign the equipment and/or give some sort of review card to make it more appealing.. selling in Europe might be difficult due to shipping expenses and import tax..

[@douglasgraham100]

Yes I would be interested

[@leductuanmail]

Nice review video, love to see more reviews, especially in the beginner to middle level equipment. About the reselling the reviewed equipment, I think people would love to buy, but to add more value to the item, you could consider leave your trace on such item (signing, reviewed by Jake, etc.), your fan will grab them like crazy

[@jessierohrer]

I have a SF Evo I bought in the spring this year that I use a Spigarelli ZT arrow rest on. My arrows have fairly large feathers and I don't have issues with the fletchings/vanes hitting my shelf. I agree the grip is kinda disappointing - I modified mine with some epoxy and grip tape, but recently upgraded to an RCore grip that has been doing really nicely (and looks a lot better!). Thanks for the great videos!

[@StumpArchery]

Always enjoy your reviews Jake 👍

[@w.gordonfocht9671]

thanks for your review... alot of nuggets of wisdom " hidden" in this video.

[@exegesis1989]

Great review jake! Your reviews are very much appreciated. I was wondering if you could also make reviews of fivics archery full setup, say V2, V3, Argon, Titan Ex, and maybe up to skadi. I'm really hoping you could. More patron to your channel sir jake... 😊🏹

[@jbacon4514]

I've been really happy with my SF EVO. I've had it about a year now.

[@Hybridesque]

One of my club mates had an EVO, shot really well with it Barebow. Think he picked up a Mykan and SF ISO Pro and uses those now for his Barebow Outdoor and Indoor setups respectively.

[@Anubis8jehuty]

Yes I would be interested!

[@Stanty16]

Very glad to see the SF Evo has a barebow weight option now! Been wanting one for my Evo since I bought it a couple years ago so will have to check it out

[@andrewowen3235]

Yeah I'm sure you would be able to sell on really easily. Unfortunately I live in UK and costs are higher for postage but if it's overall cheaper I would be inin purchasing reviewed equipment

[@petrokemikal]

I have the SF NEO setp full oly recurve.. Bought one after watching your review.. Been loving it I have to say.. Not a fan of the clicker mount on it though, screw keeps coming loose and I dont want to loctite it because I have both longer and shorter arrows that somtimes requre a shift of the clicker position itself.. Huge adjustment range on the tiller bolts which was very welcome.. I was able to drop some 34 pound limbs down to nearly 30 and I guess ill get up to 36 or more all the way in.. Defintaly some of the better midrange stuff for sure..

[@-fazik-3713]

Thank You for the video!

[@thecarrot4412]

Love your videos Jake, very well put together. I would like to hear your thoughts on some super recurve limbs at some point if possible. I've used them for years but your thoughts would be very interesting.

[@azzlaziz]

A friend has the newer Newtron riser from this company with the integrated weight in aluminium I think. The screws holding the weight are rusting quite a bit now with our weather in Malaysia and it's not even 6 months old and he's lost 4-6 of them unknowingly. Best loctite them down. Personally, after using the Vygo I've moved away from risers with inline weight attachments. This is because I feel a change in the riser flex and limb timing as it stiffens the bottom half of the riser more than the top. Also, putting weights in the 5/16" bushings gives me that weight-forward effect that I do prefer.

[@amrazing33]

Please please take a look at Novaery's risers! I feel like, if done right, their risers carry a generational innovation!

[@GrayLepax]

Yeah that would be awesome. I've been thinking about getting one from them for some time

[@amrazing33]

@@GrayLepax me too! But I really can't afford to buy one if it turns out to be a flop. But I can't seem to find any review on the internet

[@dermaulwurf5540]

Hi Jake, I like this kind of videos! Could you tell more about the tillersettings and what typ of string, how much strands and how high the draw weight was? Thanks in advance....

[@Citizen3942]

Can you make a review on Kinetic Invinso V2 riser and Kinetic Fury limbs some time?

[@Australian_Made]

Yeah sure, Just mail them both to Jake.

[@alansavigliano6573]

Hi Jake, would You be able to Review the x10 parallel pro arrows anytime? You are very trustable on these thingd

[@rigunafazar2912]

Hello, Mr. Kaminski. What kind of bow stand did you use as seen in the video 17:53?

[@rigunafazar2912]

I have a Sebastien Flute riser too, but the Ascent one and use it as a barebow. On 20 meters it's best set at 21 cm brace height and -2 mm tiller. With 2,5 inches feather vanes right helical on 4 mm arrow, I had 310 as my best score. But, I'm just a newbie in barebow archery. So, my settings above might not be the perfect one. Just sharing, sorry. 😅🙇‍♂️

[@sjohn_8627]

So do you think a non drop away rest would work okay? Like a Spigarelli zt rest ect.

[@ventusstrife6715]

Hello! I am curious about some formular to ilf Adapter. How good does it work, will it cause some performance lose? If possible, would you like to do a review video? Thanks!

[@ThisNotThatGuy]

Some of the older SF Evo risers are missing the barebow weight mounting hole beneath the silver stabilizer bushing. (2021 alternativess version)

[@chrisbowman2030]

Looks like a very nice riser. Unfortunately the radius on the shelf is a total deal-breaker for me. In my experience every millimetre or 3/64" of space on the shelf and sight window counts regarding tuning.

[@Nemod70]

I think your selling of reviewed equipment is a great idea.

[@여단-i8e]

Finally, it is a product with a price that I can access! Thank you for the review. Are you also interested in Tempest Riser or super recurved limb by Border Achary?

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

Yes I am, borders stuff is always interesting

[@여단-i8e]

@@JakeKaminskiArchery I hope to see your review of Borders stuff

[@TGregers]

Which material is most durable for a bow limb? Pure carbon (uukha SX+), syntactic foam + carbon (Hoyt Axia), or wood + carbon (Hoyt Velos)? Also the clicking from the Axia limbs, is that still a thing? Might be a make it or break it factor for me. About to make a purchase and need feedback.

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

The clicking is not present anymore with the new limbs I have. However this can happen on just about any set of limbs and any bow, string wax on contact points usually solves that problem but my previous clicking was different

[@TGregers]

@@JakeKaminskiArchery Alright thank you for answering! Very helpful. String wax on contact points is a good tip. Last question; for barebow, Uukha SX+ or Axia foams? im down to those two.

[@ZephrusPrime]

Hey Jake-why didn't we have a men's team this year?

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

They didn't qualify the full team.

[@larsjonsson-r4l]

Gabriel bidrop is really nice, would love your take on it 👍

[@ryanostler4907]

Agreed. Love my Bidrop 2020. Unfortunately, Gabriel is no longer making these rests.

[@williambilse]

I have this riser in orange. The color is disappointing and I'm pretty sure the stabilizer bushing is crooked. It's an ok riser for the cost IMO.

[@radebig69]

I think you should talk to Lancaster archery and do co-op with them, They sell old brands they shouldn't favor anyone. Any instead of they doing 2 minute basic review on their KZbin page, They will get great review from you. I will definitely buy stuff from you. ❤

[@dnakoldarkside6358]

Hi Jake. Any arrow reviews like the skylon series? I know you pay to buy those. Kindly consider in the future.

[@shredfreak83]

another alternative would be to buy a bow & have it shipped to you. Then have you ship it to the buyer buyer. I'd be cool waiting another month extra if you get to play with it first.

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

That’s essentially what was done here.

[@ablaze1793]

Does anyone know what fingertab Jake is using? I like how it wraps around all 3 fingers instead of just the middle finger like mine right now.

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

I’m using the yost tab found here: collabs.shop/cegrwt They sent me a leather set with three finger straps, they may sell that on their website.

[@jonathangutierrez6592]

will the custom "jake Kaminski" grips fit these risers? I have a Neo riser.

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

Yes from RCore

[@vaazig]

Buying stuff: Being UK based it's really a faff to buy things from the states, as well as many other countries. How is your viewership distributed?

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

30%+ USA based and around 12% UK based

[@vaazig]

@@JakeKaminskiArchery Let's hope that this 30% is really into buying new stuff! 😅

[@RandalGreenberg]

Anyone know what arm guard Jake is using?

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

This one collabs.shop/af4reu

[@Tom-d6l]

Sid ball at borders bows recently made many videos about their bows as well as topics about building limbs and risers care to comment on his insights. Tom Lund

[@saiyang358]

I ordered a Gillo GF 25" today. Feel free to reach out to me if you want to review it.

[@kalumeet1]

Top weights are not allowed shooting Barebow? At least in European archery rules.

[@henrys4838]

Reselling equipment used on your channel is an excellent idea. But consider the time required for repacking. It may not be worth the trouble. Also, if your reviews of some items are unflattering, you will be in effect chasing away potential buyers.

[@stefansteiner2670]

The first three collabs links are the same as the last. Probably c+p error. ;-)

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

Thanks fixing that now… stupid Shopify issues

[@JakeKaminskiArchery]

Fixed, thanks again!

[@gillesmurguet2743]

I have a Sébastien Flute EVO Riser and I have a big criticism of this equipment: it hardly supports any external equipment... The length of the clicker is particular, no way to fix the Mantis correctly, I was only able to fix my viewfinder on 2 screws instead of 4, I was not able to fix and use the Avalon Classic magnetic clicker and that of " Arc Système" is too long, etc. In conclusion, like Barebow why not but like a recurve bow too much equipment is inaccessible to it if you don't buy Sébastien Flute... 👎👎👎

hello jake If you send me your email, I haven't been able to find it. It's to explain to you why I haven't paid for your membership. greetings joseph
