IMPULSE® 3” AND 4”
Revolutionary new lightweight composite material Very Low Profile design for better clearance on re-
curve bows Best resistance to strong crosswinds and unpredict-
able weather in a recurve setup. Excellent for 50- 90 meter competitions. Available in 3” and 4” length (for additional stability).

IMPULSE® FIRST FLIGHT
Revolutionary new lightweight composite material High Profile 4” vane offers fastest stabilization Designed for archers traditionally using natural feath-
ers. Composite material minimizes the impact of a con-
tact with the vane and can be used indoor and out-door.
IMPULSE® DEUX
Revolutionary new lightweight composite material Short Profile 2” vane designed for Field or 3D com-
pound shooters. A slightly higher vane to stabilize arrow in variable
wind and weather conditions at compound speeds. Best for 90 meters or less.
*Aerodynamic stability as defined by the distance between the Center of Pressure (where the drag acts) and the Center of Gravity (Mass).
Impulse® Vanes match or exceed the aerody-namic stability* of an Olympic arrow fletched
with Mylar vanes.
