    so what is the concensus on the gravity drifters?

    good?

    good but not as good as kryptos?

    just plain bad?

    my blue gravity drifters life further than my green kryptos, but my green kryptos were a quieter slid than my drifters. I say get drifters if you can't find kryptos and if you have the $ get both.

    not really.

    the blue kryptos are about the same as the drifters in speed. me and matt k compared them going down more than a few garages. no considerable difference.

    blue kryptos still slide like butter in a hot pan, drifters slide like smooth peanut butter on a piece of toast. ( still slick and soft slide, but not even close to the magnific kryptos)
