I put superbands on my KISS and the slingshot bands were crazy tight. Like, scared I was going to break something putting them on...Got them on and the slingshots arent nearly as sensitive (obvious reason and fix here)...Does anyone have experience with this? Do you just adjust your leafs?

Quoted from schudel5:

Always adjust the slingshot leaf switches after installing rubber rings, Superbands or not. You want them to kick with the slightest ball hit, yet you don't want machine gunning or phantom kicks from vibration.

Thanks!

So, generally I just bend the leafs by hand a bit to achieve this but I always feel like 'there's go to be a better way'...Suggestions?

Thanks again

Quoted from homebrood:

Shouldn't be nearly that tight, sounds like you got the wrong size for the slings...

they are the same size as the rubbers I took out of there but superbands dont stretch almost at all...

I pulled the superbands off the slingshots and put on some white rubber. Doesn't look as nice but those superbands are weird. Very little bounce. Thanks for the input everyone.
