Quoted from Zitt:

Pretty sure the Transparent Aluminum comment was more directed as a joke in reference to infamous scene from "Star Trek: IV - the Voyage Home":

It's a real thing developed in the early 80's, but it's not really aluminum - rather, an aluminum compound. The best use for it now is bullet proof glass since it can be about 1/2 the thickness of standard BPG. However, it is incredibly expensive.

Does they "plink" like an aluminum baseball bat? Seriously, I'm really curious about how they feel & play vs. the traditional plastic.

Only if you're in the habit of not putting any rubber on your flippers...

I miss that sound from my youth.
