Thanks a lot Earl, it's really cool.

You can find some reviews of the table here:

I like how Billy Pappas pretty much calls it a piece of shyte and how everyone complains that it screws up their arm because the rods are so heavy. Sweet!

Yeah, they should design a table where they have 3 goalies so that you can slop in more goals. Oh, and design the men in such a way so that you can only do one shot...the roll-over.
Oh, wait a minute...isn't that called a Tornado . Sorry my bad .

I don't have a problem doing any shot on a Tornado. In fact, its the one table that I can do more shots, and more tricky stuff, then any other. As for 3 men vs 1 men, it's a matter of preference, slop sucks, but there are things that I can do with 3 men that i would miss if they were gone (3-5 passing, 2-3 passing to the 5, 2-3 passing to the 3, etc. etc. ) Way more to lose then gain when eliminating that man imo.

I agree with Jeff, adding that I use that man to set my pull shot. I'm going to work on doing the set by bouncing it off the back wall. That's how I saw most goalies set it this weekend.
Regarding singles passing, I saw a lot of 'right hand to right hand' passing (shooting off back wall to own 3-bar). Seems like they're great balls for catching easily.
Did not see one good cracking 2-bar bank all weekend - and I watched a lot. Disappointing, except that's probably because adjusting your own existing style to the brand new table was hard enough, without adding the pressure of trying low-percentage shots.
I'd expect after these tables have been in various peoples basements for a few months, we could see a few players emerge with a 2-bar banking series. It would be easier on the arm than shooting a pull all weekend. We'll see.
