Tapered Flatbands on my B52

I was shooting my Daisy Powerline B52 slingshot yesterday with my boy and one of my tubes broke. When I got home I cut a pouch and some new tapered flatbands for it. I turned my forks around and installed my new flatbands and pouch. Wow, does it work better now. It is still exteremely accurate and boy, does it have a punch. I will not shoot tubes again!
