THE SEB NEO REST PRODUCT Review
Personally, I would probably be happier with a conventional three-inch single bag but, Seb has put some thought into the latest design and it is an improvement on his first effort. My intention was ditch it and go for a single bag but the three-bag system works very well so far, so I’m going to give it a fair test. Seb has made the tiny side bags with more capacity and has improved the way you can tighten the bag to grip the stock – though in reality you do not want to actually grip the stock – it should simply hold the stock in place, eliminating any side ‘slop’.
Seb has also offered a modified ‘third leg’ screw so that if the leg is to the rear, the screw doesn’t get in the way of the joystick. The screw fits flush with the top of the rest.
The side bags are now a better design with improved adjusters.
The four tension adjusters on the Mk 1 SEB were difficult to access and needed an Allen key and spanner.
After assembling the rest from the delivered ‘stacked’ configuration – which only takes a couple of minutes with the supplied Allen keys and filling the three bags with sand (which takes a bit longer) I took a couple of photographs which accompany this article.
In summation, The latest NEO is an improvement on the first one we tested and to recap we have the following modifications:
Built-in up-lift but counter-balance weight may be used if preferred.
Hardened steel pins on feet. Flush-fitting rear foot-adjuster. Improvement to three-bag system. Easier to adjust tension.
For me, this makes the NEO just about the best joystick rest you can buy – whatever your discipline.
The flush-fitting alternative rear screw can be seen close to the knob. The normal screw is to the rear.
Note the NEO in the rear showing the amount of elevation available compared the the MK I in the foreground.
