only been twice hahaha
But my mates and I have decided to make it an annual thing now so planning to go over again soon.
But as I said before, having seen the cheap ones in person there is a huge difference in quality (get an empty 600ml waterbottle, (disposable) and an empty 600 ml coke bottle. Both bits of plastic with similar functions, but one will crush easily, the other takes a fair bit more.
Plastic ain't just plastic!
Cheers.
Ive been in contact with the seller a bit I can ask what plastic is used if you want me too
He's pretty confident they are ok, but a real world test could see them fail
Not a clue. But I know they don't flex as much or look Nearly as flimsy, and from an engineering perspective, are shaped in a way that gives them more strength and reducing the likelihood of cracking. Also, I believe there is a weight difference (maxtrax are heavier) downer I know, but to me at least says stronger.
quote from the maxtrax website.... This is all they say.
Q: How do you make MAXTRAX?
A: MAXTRAX are injection moulded in Sydney Australia from high quality engineering-grade reinforced polymer (Nylon), renowned for its strength, toughness and resistance to harsh environments.
Shite nylons been around a gazillion years seems they used the KISS princible.
Im never taking my Patrol on any beach[salt and sand] so I dont think they will be required
