A buddy of mine from the Indy area has been shooting them and reports they are very good. No personal experince with them.

Tolerances stink. Last dozen I had there was over 10 grains weight difference amongst bare shafts. Totally unacceptable for a $170/dozen bareshaft. The huge majority of folks I see pushing them are compensated staff folks. Kinda like the old dca. Much better arrows out there

How was the spine tolerances.....just curious? I've been pondering a half dozen to try, but this warns me off a bit.

Spine tolerances were inconsistent as well. This was back in 2016. Maybe they have upped their game. But that one time was enough to steer me away

Ontarget7 did a bit of testing with the elements around the time I had mine. Shane posted his findings here. Needless to say, he didn't shoot them for very long either

I bought a dozen typhoons and they are spot on. Not a 1/2 grain difference in the dozen. Fire nock outserts. They shoot very well.

Not sounding good for them..
I have Fire and Ice, their 204 shaft, and the Typhoons. Quakes too. I find them to be very consistent. The Fire and Ice are just the right weight, IMO for a 204 shaft and have proven to be fairly tough. I just got some CX Red SD's to try against them. Heavier though.
I shoot the stainless half-outs from Firenock on the Fire and Ice. Not a fan of the factory offering.

I'm looking at the quakes but it doesn't list what kind of insert comes with them.

Same with Black Eagle. I really don't see how companies expect to get a saturated market and sell inferior products at top line prices.
Quakes are a " normal " size arrow. 246 or so. A number of inserts can be used with them. I believe they ship with aluminum inserts, but can't remember exactly. Firenock makes a heavier steel insert for them as well. You are not held to an halfout or outsert with these.
Pound for pound I find their wrapped arrows to be very tough. But then again, I haven't shot all brands in different situations. I can say they seem a lot tougher to me than the BE Spartans.

I'm going to pass. Not a good sign when a company can't even post which components come with their shafts or the component specs on their website

Ya I do they suck ass most inconsistent shafts I've ever shot they fly all over the place down by group with a **** did a comparison yesterday vs Easton's 6.5 bow Hunter shafts and Easton smoked them in every way shooting element arrows almost made me think that my bow was out if tune then I shot the Easton's and there spot on hit exactly were I aim and right out of the box element feel like cheap veitnam shafts like they will break really easy
