Summary: Good, for the price
July 25th, 2003
My BG foil lame has not lasted as well as I'd like. It doesn't seem to stand up well to lots of point impacts, and has developed several small holes in the fabric. In all fairness, this may be because it's a tad too small for me, so the material is stretched more tightly across the front than would be ideal. It seems to oxidize fairly quickly, with a greenish tint appearing around the collar after only a few uses, but it washes out easily and hasn't caused any lasting conductivity problems. It's probably not the best foil lame out there, but it's inexpensive - and I ended up getting a new one of the same kind (but a slightly larger size!) this year at Nationals, because the overall performance was satisfactory and the price was right.
