Default New Scoops

Hows it going all. Got my new homemade scoops here and going am to try them out soon. Tried out 2 versions to see whats better and the foam grips are very comfortable. Handles are 5 feet long now, we'll see how they do. They are a modified version of the popular youtube video from pat of Hawaii. Thanks

Best part, they are light!

I made and used a scoop like that for almost a year, you'll find it works alot better with the screen on the other end. That way you can really swing it in to the sand taking a nice bite....
