 Light or heavy tip curl?
What y'all think it is? Just got it back from Hopkins for the second time. Supposedly it's a 12x14, we'll see how it does.

It was 2nd hand to me and needed to be reworked so I sent it to him, and I think something happened and it just got repainted and sent back to me without anything being done.

Yea that's heavy tip curl for sure!
I sent him a stock PD prop and he reworked to little over 14 pitch when had stage 2 and it was SSLLOOWW to take off and would only run about 20 and couldn't go over 3600 rpm no matter how high I trimmed the motor.
Still got that one Sittin in the shop. Also had him rework another more worn PD prop up to 13 pitch and it was perfect all around but it slung a blade couple years ago during teal season.
If you have stage one and could get him or someone to make a 13 pitch tulip prop out of the virgin stainless with cup and tip curl similar to a PD stock prop then I think it would be best all around. He always told me if the 13 tulip worked so well then we needed to fine tune the 13 cleaver because it is a true surface running prop
