Default Broadheads and Arrows.....What was new at ATA?

Specifically in arrows and broadheads, what was new (or improved)? The Snyper 3-blade is intriguing but what else caught your eye? What about arrows? Any new "skinny" carbons? I heard something about "skinny" alums....anyone see those?

I didn't happen to see any "skinny" aluminum arrows but Easton is releasing their NeXX75 line which has a tapered end with the new HIT technology.

You can check them out here - http://eastonarchery.com/products/bo...75/default.asp

Well, I am using a 2216 arrow for hunting purposes. Some would consider them skinny as compared to a 2512. I would rather use a smaller diamter thicker wall then a wide diameter thin wall for durability purposes.

I'm shooting a 2213, it's skinny AND thin.

Although I have to say, I am being tempted by the dark side to switch to carbons despite the fact that I've never had a problem with aluminums. I'm so torn.

Easton have also brought out a skinny ACC called AC Superslims that also use the HIT I have a dozen on order so as yet I cant comment on them.
