Finale vs Yita carbon bows

Has anyone had the chance to see them both? Are they similar?
Thanks, Geoff.

About a year ago I auditioned a few different carbon fiber bows including a Finale and a couple of Chinese bows that I think are like the Yita. I ended up buying a pernambucco wood bow. However if were buying a carbon fiber bow, I think it would be the Finale.

Thanks Robgrow. So, the Finale seemed the best of the carbon bunch?

Check out Jason Heaths video Blog on the Finale Bow on the website ContraBass conversations. he seems to think it's the business.If you decide to get one let me know what you think. I fancy one too but don't have the cash yet.

IMO, the Finale at that price point is more than likely a Chinese bow as well.
