Tip for stringing super recurve limbs. use both feet inside the stringer so that the stringer is almost perpendicular to the floor, rather than the usual triangle shape with a single foot. much easier to string using this technique.

You are correct about returning Uukha limbs. I bought a set of Evo2s from Alternative Services and one was twisted. I returned to AS but they said they would have to be sent back to factory for determination. Long story short, AS was notified to the fact that one was twisted and I was sent a new set. Great service. And great limbs to boot.

There's also the top model limb, which is the SX+, so there's 4 different target limbs. They also make them all in 4 different lengths with Extra Long 72" as a option. I recently shot some SX50 72's and they felt really nice compared to my WNS Motive C5 limbs at full draw. I really like the way they feel with that slight let off feeling with my 31" draw. I'm going to get some when I can afford it. Also shot a 74" bow that was a Uuka Xpro2 27" riser with the older VX+ Extra long limbs which was a fantastic bow. So nice. Great to see your getting on board with Uukha as I buy a lot through you.

I get that if you are used to the stacking of your "normal" limbs and using it as a sort of wall it can be annoying that there is no stacking.

I recently paired the Uukha SX50 Limbs (Long @ 32#) with a CD WFX25 Lite Riser as a new barebow recurve. These limbs are extremely smooth and also very quiet without limb dampers installed. Their smoothness is especially appreciated because both of my shoulders have torn rotator cuffs (right worse than left and I am right handed). These limbs allow me shoot with greater comfort for a longer period of time. For my part - I would highly recommend them. My other barebow is a Wiawis Winex 25" riser coupled with Wiawis Winex limbs (Long @ 32#). It is a good rig, but the new one surpasses it by a significant amount for both accuracy and consistency. I am very seriously considering trying these Uukha limbs on the Winex Riser. Note: Using both feet on the bow stringer makes stringing the bow with these limbs pretty straight forward and easy.

I shoot the latest Uukha SX+ limbs 32lbs. Previously, I was using Samick & SF limbs, also very nice quiet limbs. These are my findings of the Uukha SX+ limbs: I find stringing the Uukha limbs is easy. I don't use a limb stringer. I put the lower limb into my right foot and slide the string into its position on the top limb. I always place a rubber band over the lower part of the string and limb to keep the string in its correct position. Never had a problem. Easy as. The limbs are super smooth through all the drawing cycle. My humble opinion is ... at the end of shooting 72 arrows, it's still almost as easy as the first 36. I find getting through the clicker at the end of the tournament is easier with the Uukha limbs because these limbs don't stack. I can't explain why, but Uukha 32lbs limbs feel like the same poundage as my 28lbs SF limbs. (I'm pulling 32.5lbs on the fingers). At my home backyard range, for the first time at 50 meters, I shot 6 X 10's, using the Uukha SX+ limbs. (That was a good day). Uukha says that it may be possible to use a weaker spined arrow because the limbs are so smooth. I'm shooting 830 Easton X10's, 28.5" cut to cut, with 85gn tungsten points. (After an arrow/bow tuning session, I do believe the 830 spine is at the limit. I'm fairly sure that a 750 spine Easton X10 may be better). Alejandra Valencia of Mexico, came 5th in the Tokyo Olympics using Uukha limbs and riser. The Womens 2020 US Open was won by Alexandria Zuleta-Visser using Uukha limbs and riser. For me, these Uukha SX+ limbs are very good. I'm looking forward to the new 2022 riser.

The reason the speeds are higher than you see at the Olympics is that X10s something like 20% heavier than VAPs. The limbs are quieter on your bow than his barebow because stabilizers and dampeners make a huge impact on sound. Barebows are always louder. Limbs like these, with a really smooth back-end, are great for archers that pull through the clicker. Limbs like the NS-Gs are great for archers that push through during expansion. Barebow archers like these because there is less of a change in the way the string feels at different crawls.

I have the cv9s and uukha irbis. the cv9s are amazing but a a little bit fussy in the setup. 1. They need heavier arrows (10gpp minimum looking at Sid's charts). Lower will damage limbs. 2. A riser with deflex (I ended up ordering a tempest riser because most risers on the market have a reflex design which stresses out the limbs too much and can cause damage). 3. A longer string - this is easy because you can just order a size up which works just fine on the cv9. the uukha's are easier to setup and can use a lighter arrow without damaging the limb. they are prone to having the outer layer chip, but that's only a cosmetic issue apparently. having said that, I still prefer the Borders any day of the week. They have more power than the Uukhas but require some more attention to get it shooting well.
