What I redesigned between the red and blue label rails had nothing to do with which cushions were being used, that's what you fail to understand!
That was my understanding, its good to hear that I understood the difference between the 2 tables.

In other words you could have put Artemis, Superspeeds, or Diamond blacks on a Red Label Diamond and it wont make it play like a Blue Label Diamond.

Conversely, changing the brand of cushion on a Blue Label Diamond will not make it play like a Red Label Diamond.

Would both statements be correct??

The position of the cushion, behind the nose height, is determined by the thickness of the subrail, which then determines the correct nose height for the profile of the cushions being used.

As I understand it the ideal rail thickness is 2", would that also be correct??

Would you have redesigned them had the Artemis banked perfectly with the red label rails?

Correct me if i’m wrong but from what i saw the reds rails were too thick, moving the body of the cushion too high in relation to it’s nose to get the « correct » nose height. Pretty obvious when you can see an angle where the cushion meets the wood…
