LOL

Titan fury; Touche!

Cheers for resonses so far. Looks like I am gona get a katana, as soon as my new credit card arrives!

Now two desicions left; size and arch or flat models?

I do have an arch and try and push it as far as I can go, so will probably get an 'arched' one and get it in a size 42. This was same size as my recently ripped fury, which was pretty easy to get on once broken in.

735.0 kgs @ 122.7kgs Eq		I would guess a 42 will be f**king tiny Iain. And you'll end up needing about 250 to get a touch. See if you can try somebody else's on for size before you buy one. I like the groove of the Angle-Sleeved model.

How do the Katana sizes compare to the Fury sizes. If they are the same then 42 will go on easy as it dose the 42 fury? Once broken in my 42 fury went on with basically one tug on each shoulder. However if the material is so tough that you need it looser than the fury, or thse sizings are somewhat different, then a size 44 it is?

400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq		Sizing's the same. The katana is better if you hit the sweet spot, but the sweet spot is much smaller than on the Fury of F6 so there's more chance of getting it wrong.

735.0 kgs @ 122.7kgs Eq		In my experience the Katana doesn't need to be as tight as a Fury to get loads more out of it, so you could get a 44 and then either get a tighter one later on, or stop being a gay and gain some weight.

But the best advice is to try someone else's.

I honestly think the touch has to do with how big and heavily built your back is, I could not get 220 down in a size 50 @ 110kgs, took 230 with the shirt up and creased

Cheers. I think I am gona struggle to try someone elses on before I get a new shirt.

The one thing with a 44 is that I have a well broken in 44 fury which I can get on and off myself. Would a katana that I can get on and off myseelf be that effective? It's a tricky one.

I also like the 'gay' lifestyle; the clubs, hanging out with the boys and leather, so am gona stay in the 90's class for a while.

Funnily enough I was walking through a certain part of Brighton a few weeks agao and reaslied that the bald head, bearded, powerlifting style fits in very well with another group of 'guys' lol 'Bear' central!
