    I believe these are 2nd generation. I've sent the link to this thread to a number of the Griot's Garage Team so if I'm wrong, I'm sure someone will chime-in or update my and I'm happy to update this thread.

    More power.
    Smoother.
    Higher quality fit and finish
    I think a tick quieter - I would have to test.

    I don't believe so. Far as I know, Griot's sticking with it.

    BOSS or Best of Show System

    Simple but effective technique to monitor pad rotation.


    Here's what's funny... I found a ROTARY backing plate in the garage that someone placed a Sharpie Mark on.

    Oh, come on - If the user sees that plate stop rotating, they definitely need to revise their technique...
