31.6 and Obese !! Get in.... Member 869, 1355 posts SQ 320, BP 200, DL 310830.0 kgs @ 97.5kgs Eq | Ordered a Titan Fury last week from Pullums and today received an F6 instead. I was split between the two initially but opted for the Fury as I was told it suited a straight line presser, which I think I am. On the website it describes the F6 as a sirt for an arched back presser, which I do try and do, but its not extreme. I'm tempted to stick with the F6 and have a go with that but hoped I might get a little input from 'those in the know' before I committed !! Plus the F6 looks sexier than the Fury. | ||

 Why not just not get fat in the first place? Member 132, 1406 posts SQ 331, BP 200, DL 320851.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq | The angle of the sleeves is different that's why they suit either a flat backed (or high chest touch) or an arch (and lower chest touch). Are you planning on competing? If so what federation/s? | ||

Doing the BPO Scottish at the end of Jan for my first equipped comp. So if I do bench with an arch and touch about 2" below the nip's would you think an F6 to be suitable ? | ||

Yes mate, I bench arched and touch just below my nips, I took bad advice from some guy in the US and A and got a fury, it's useless for for me I should have got an F6 | ||

Cheers. I was gonna pick up a RageX but Millsy quite rightly pointed out, as a shirt novice, a Fury or F6 might be a more sensible option for next year. A RageX is certainly on my 'to smash' list. I'm scared of Katanas !! | ||

BUT if you're committed to the purchase, if your pressing plane is straight up and you have little or no arch you'd be better with a Fury. But if your pressing plane is nipple line to throat then the F6 would be better. But, basically, get a Rage X.  | ||

I 'think' I Bench in a relatively straight line, maybe slightly towards my head = Fury. Am I thinking too much about this s**t ?? | ||

Your thinking about it too much i've used fury f6 katana superkatana double super katana i noticed little difference between the fury and f6 except the f6 seemed a bit more supportive (the fury i used was old though) | ||

Yes, i'd definitely agree that Fury/F6 is MUCH easier to learn/forgiving that the Rage-x. I've had my rage-x for about 8 years now and it's outperformed the 10 or so other brand new shirts I have used despite being torn and ripped all over the place. It's just about holding together yet somehow gave me 40-50kg when I last trained for an equipped powerlifting competition. Might be tempted to give the Super Katana a fair crack if I ever get my bench up to a half decent standard. | ||
