I was in Blue Rat last weekend before Bonnaroo and they had no Toro or SG and I don't think 42 degrees gets Toro or SG. I would recommend calling them. Some sick SYN tubes at Blue Rat though.

SG for the win!
Toro is expensive and his percs arent even the slightest bit reinforced..
new SG tubes, if you havnt seen already, have the perc arms fused to the tube itself reinforcing the crap out of them to avoid sensless breakage!
but i just saw your talking about fixed stems.. i would still go SG, because you can get the fixed stem with the reinforced arms too.. but for an SG fixed stem (4 arm fixed to 8 arm perc) it costs upwards of 700+ and for the same toro fixed stem (7 arm fixed to 13 arm perc) it would be around the same price for much more perc arms..

i dunno the SG fixed stem didn't impress too much, i think the closed ends of the perc arms make it a lil more draggy

no sir, no drag at all. especially on my SG straight tube 8arm. even with the 4 arm A/C there is virtually no drag..
as far as the SG fixed stems. both the bottom 4 and the top 8 arms are all reinforced and fused to the glass tube itself for ultimate strength and durability!
no one else in the glass world does that so SG percs>others in my opinion..

Thanks

i'd look into a sg gridline. they hit amazing.
you really cant go wrong with toro or sg. so you'll be happy with either choice.

mmm when i tried it out we were comparing it against gridcap, gridline, inverted 4 (not inverted tree but the one with splashguard looking thing), and toro inline/13
those all clear lightening quick so i guess a more fair comparison would've been a 8/13, too bad it wasnt around
nonetheless, great tube, and yeah i love how SG reinforces percs.

Hit up Blue Rat, I don't think you will be disappointed. They do get Toro in, but they are gone as soon as they hit the shelves. But they have a pretty good slide selection at times. Usually El Hefe, Slinger, S4l, Stroble, Rebel, Revere... it all depends on the timing.
