Handle angle?

[cdsmith46]

I keep reading of the new angle of the handle to the shaft. How many degrees from straight is it? How compare to an Explorer SePro?

I read that itwas a 15 degree change, however, I don't like it. Stresses my wrist too much.......NGE

You don't like the E-Trac or SE? The E-Trac is more natural and more straight up, I really can't tell much of a difference in either one.

The machine's control box is forced into my fore finger muscle between the big knuckle and the second joint because of the angle change. Makes my finger and wrist sore.....NGE

For me the E-Trac's more towards vertical by 15 degree handle makes a huge difference - much less strain on the arms and shoulder then a Safari or Explorer.
Seriously - I could only swing my Safari for an hour max without having to take a break - with the E-Trac I can easily swing for three or four hours straight with no pain at all !

E-TRAC-OHIO,

I agree with you. I have both the E-Trac and Safari. The E-Trac is slightly heavier than the
Safari, but I can swing it longer then the Safari because of it's design.

The aftermarket arm cups make the angle even better! They allow your forearm to get closer to the upper rod instead of being propped up like the "V" shape does off the stock cuff.
