Re: Roka Maverick Comp ripped during try on [Bigbird]
I have owned the Xterra Vortex since 2010/11 and it is has withstood some heavy use and abuse over the years of racing. I bought the Roka Maverrick X last year as a "splurge" because I felt I could use an upgrade. The Roka is way more delicate than the Xterra and I don’t see it lasting more than 10 races. Every time I touch it I feel like I am going to rip it. It does hold on to creases too. I have pulled and tugged on the Xterra forcefully and I never felt like I would damage it. I also cannot feel any real advantages from the Roka over the Xterra while racing. I am more conscious of how I put on and take off the Roka because I fear I will rip it, and this is hard to do when I am disoriented and rushing coming into T1. I prefer a more bulletproof suit I can yank off and on. I'll be racing in my Xterra this weekend. A company should stand by their product especially if they come with a big price tag, but I am sure they deal with this issue often. They would go out of business if they offered full refunds for everyone’s rips. This may be a "lessoned learned" situation. It is how businesses fade away over time due to loss of repeat customers.
