THE R.G. Hardie FLEXISTICK

The Flexistik is a precision made blowpipe designed to achieve optimum blowing position and maximum airflow into the pipe bag. It is made of a series of components to adjust the length and angular position of the blowpipe.

It extends from 8 to 12 inches (21-31cm) using a locknut and tube assembly and together with a swivel joint the piper can adjust the blowpipe to a comfortable position while performing.

The mouthpiece design and bore size ensure maximum airflow and comfort.

The Flexistick comes complete with 2 removable/replaceable mouthpieces, Offering both a flat/wide mouthpiece complete with Rubber cushion and A traditional round mouthpiece.

Has a non return valve built in.

I have found these to be great for learner pipers who have not yet developed a feel for the pipes and also often find a standard blow stick too long.

These can be adjusted in angle and length as the piper matures.

The Flexistick sells for $135 including postage.
