Quick spin 2.25", works great for me.

Duravane Predators have a smaller profile than the Blazers

correct me if im wrong...but isnt the height the factor that allows blazers to work even though they are so short??

im sure there are lower profiled 2-3" vanes...and would think from a well tuned setup that they aughta fly well...i just need to start fletching my own so i can play with these things...

You could try gateway rayzrs.

You are right Razr's are a great option.

That and the fact that they are pretty stiff compared to regular vanes.
