My review of the Proviction Power Sled (Prowler knock-off) from Dick's Sporting Goods

[MEbigUsmall]

I was really happy with rogues service and products. I don't really plan on buying anything from another company.

It's back in stock if anyone wants one. I just ordered mine.

The B&R bar kicks total ass. I've only squatted, benched, and pressed with it so far, but it's still easily the best bar I've ever used. The knurling is soft yet has great grip, the spin is nice, and it just feels like quality in your hand.

Still need to test run the Butcher.. seems like a solid piece of equipment though from pushing it around the garage.

Mine is in the way.

This is next on my list. Then a weighted chin belt and some more 45 pound plates and I should be good for a long while.

I was about to comment on how funny it is that after just a few weeks the Proviction sled was back, with the old name, old paint, and old price. But it's gone again, replaced with the SLKZ Chrome Power Sled:

I can't help but wonder if it was a mistake that they relisted it or if they got a small supply in and have already run out.

Love the B&R barbell and everything that I bought from Rogue... except their microplates that are quite far from their listed weights, especially for the price Rogue sells them for.

Check this thread for a cheaper, better alternative.

Which is also now gone. Crazy stuff going on with that thing. I think the popularity is running them out of inventory fast.

I lucked out and grabbed a SKLZ sled at the local store over the weekend, and I'm really glad I did. It's a lot nicer/sturdier than I expected it to be.

Just got mine. Lots of fun. Any ideas on how to reduce the noise the skis make? I know my neighbors back at school are jerks and will complain.

I have to pick one of these up ASAP. It's a steal. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can put under the ski's to prevent them from wearing out too soon because I will most likely be pushing it on concrete?
