Looks alot like SWD, c/a looks alot like the swd 9980 i believe it is? and the rest is a spitting image of 9990 gear maybe just a little lower quality?

I checked out the website, and the gear looks very well built, it looks like quality pro stuff. Unfortunatley the graphics might have people thinking twice about ordering it, (mostly the blocker, and their logo looks way too big.)

Yeah looks identical to Sher-Wood everything, Quality wise looks fairly good, even have low end gear prob being built at the same Sherbrooke plant.

Judging by the location of the company, the look of the gear, and the link Rich posted, it sounds like the guy who designed the SWD gear started this new company.

I was able to see some of the SBK stuff at the coach's show in Naples this past month, and from what I could tell it is basically the newer 9990 stuff.

Actually, Sher-wood bought TPS. But I see what you are saying.

I dont like the current trend of graphics lookin like somethin a caveman etched on the wall of a cave and its our job to translate it.

Its be nice for a new company to come out and be a trend setter.

the pads are the exact same as the swd 9990X evolution series pads (except these have turco break and the picture from the swd website does not)

While I know the SBK name is ostensibly an abbreviation for Sherbrooke, let's be honest. That's just plain derivative, and I plan on calling pronouncing it "Sherbok."
