Hey beautiful people, Apex update. I've spent the last few days measuring, comparing, and contemplating. The short version: the production surface came out different from my initial development sample, and I caught it early. What happened: - Etched glass is controlled in production by Ra, the industry-standard roughness number. Ra (and many other parameters) on this batch is nearly identical to my original sample. That's exactly why nothing looked wrong. - The production surface carries more material above the plateaus and a slightly coarser texture. - In hand: same class of speed, more tactile texture, and glide that responds to pressure instead of ignoring it. Press harder = get more tactile feedback. - That last part is the opposite of what I originally advertised, so the claim changes. The data doesn't lie. What I did about it: - Found the root cause with the factory: the traditional QC checks physically couldn't see the difference. - Added more QC checks for this run. Uniformity across each individual pad. Every unit in this drop gets screened. - Rewrote the spec sheet to describe the surface you'll actually receive, and I'll be publishing the full profilometry data with it. Every parameter. Nobody really publishes that, but in this case, I will. What's still the same: Apex is a sculpted plateau glass, very fast (early reviewer feedback puts its peak glide at the top of the category with other top-speed pads), with real pressure response. Grip pressure becomes a tactility & precision input, in a way that feels very intuitive and consistent. Apex was built to prove a glass surface can be sculpted. This batch proved something I didn't plan for, but it turned out great in its own way. I've cancelled production runs before, but this surface feels too great to cancel. I'll publish the full data with the launch on July 17th. Much love, tekk

Since Polarity is on a temporary hold, but we have some Silver-White Polarity in the warehouse, I thought it'd be a good time to do a giveaway. I'll be giving five (5) away, in your choice of size - Standard or XL. To enter, simply like, rt and comment POLARITY ⬜️
