Foosball: Rod-Lock
« on: July 17, 2009, 11:46:38 pm »
Anyone use these things: http://www.rod-lock.com/

The "goalie wars" thing seems pretty cool for some drunken 2 player action but what I really like is how you can lock in the "fictitious opponents" 2 defensive players & then practice against them.

Then I started to understand the "automated rebound" passes from the opponents 2 man & 5 man....... when the lock is on just one bar it swings when you hit the player its attached to & then bounces back (off the field) which means you must react (on the field).....snaps thats some tight ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. What I just said is hard to explain so here: http://www.rod-lock.com/Details.html

Dunno, sounds like something MrC would have pictures of...
But wasn't it fun to think you won the lottery, just for a second there???

I received my rod-locks today, not too shabby of an item for practice.

Hopefully this weekend I will get a chance to play goalie wars.
