Interesting flipping stick design!

Hey guys, I was piddling around on tackle warehouse, and I found this video.

Interesting concept, and it makes a lot sense to me. I'll sometimes get a bite on a worm or jig real close to the bank, and experience what this guy is talking about. The smooth action rod seems to be a real good idea, and IMO could give you better hook set. It in fact seems like it would help eliminate a lot of lost fish, but I can also see how it could lead to lost fish. Because of the slow action, you may not be able to heave the fish out of heavy weeds or brush. I've also heard that PT uses the same blanks as Loomis (North Fork Composites).

What do you guys think, and do ever experience what he's talking about?
