    I have owned the BlackWing since it was released. I pre-ordered it in March. I absolutely love it! It does everything I could ever want a bench to do. I do agree, it is a heavy bench. At 54 years old I can still move this around no problem. If you are in the market for a top tier bench then look no further than the BlackWing. You will NOT be disappointed. Thanks for the great review Coop! V/R Shane

    I know everyone wants to keep comparing these two because they’re new. But I feel like the black wing would be better compared to the rogue adjustable 3.0. Since they are in the same price point and, I think, would make more sense for most of us. Especially since the manta ray seems to be out of most people’s budgets

    The Rogue's teeth for adjusting the bench really shows it is a higher quality product and attention to detail over the REP with just two sets of teeth and an empty gap in between. I really like the zero gap feature on the REP even though I would probably never use it. But I don't think I could justify it to myself spending an extra $400 for the Rogue.

He labels the Blackwing as Rogue and Manta Ray as REP. I did a double take and thought "Rogue offers the Manta Ray in blue?". I went with the Manta Ray due to shipping availability to Hawaii. Again love the videos and enjoy them watching them when I am away from my home gym.

    I'm pretty picky when it comes to new purchases. When you were comparing the upholstery of these benches, the Rep bench already had a tear in its upholstery on the side corner of it. This may not bother a lot of people, but tears in the upholstery just keep growing. Maybe As'Sam"bly Sam did it with his box cutters when he opened it.

    I agree, although I love Rogue and to take nothing away from them. If someone is on a budget, which most are, Rep is the better value. That being said, I would add one more thing that Rep has over Rogue, if I am not mistaken, that Rep offers a 14" wide pad on their incline bench and for me having a wide back is helpful.
    Thank you for the review.

    I own the rogue adjustable bench 3.0, and it’s a great bench. I’m looking into the rep black wing, only because when doing incline bench inside my rep pr5000 it’s kinda a hassle to get the rogue bench into place. The vertical beam which the back pad rests on in the flat position gets in the way, because I have the rear base stabilizer. The black wing does not have that vertical beam.

    I love the idea of made in the USA, but 1,200 USD is outrageous for a bench. In this case price speaks louder when the differences are minor, so I'll probably end up upgrading to the blackwing when the times comes, unless something better... cue the pun... rolls around.

I can buy stainless knurled grips for my landmine attachment handles. It's getting pretty ridiculous.

      I have no doubt it's the better, nicer bench. Whether or not it's worth the price premium is a personal choice. One thing I do like about the China manufactured bench is the ability to decline without the need for the foot catch. That would come in handy for certain exercises. I guess you could prop up one end of the Manta Ray using a bumper plate etc. I have Rogue's AB-3 and can't really imagine upgrading considering what I paid for that bench. I'm sure Rogue's foot catch is also much nicer in comparison to what is currently being offered by the Chinese manufacturers.

    this rouge bench is totally commercial i bet most of the benches we see in commercial gyms probably cost the same or more than the manta ray but are far worse in comparison over 1k for a bench for a home gym is just silly that money can be much better spent on other things

    somebody has to tell Coop which bench is on his left/right... or maybe use a different bg pic that matches which way he points when he says rogue/rep

    @Pedrinho2.10 Před 11 měsíci

    A bench characteristic dear to me is how grippy the padding is.
    If your upper back slides during pressing, your arch is gone.
    I have to set a band around the bench in commercial gyms to be safe.
    I would appreciate it if you expand on that moving forward, Coop.
    Keep up the great work!

      There’s a mention to this around the 12:15 mark, preference is with the Rogue as it’s using the grabber vinyl from the Thompson fat pad

    Let me ask you this, have you tried the wide 14in pad on the Rep. Would it limit your movement pressing

      I have 14” wide pad on my AB-5000ZG; love it and I’m going to get the same in Blackwing.

    I wouldn't mind paying more for Rogue. But they are simply not delivering the innovation that REP is.

  • @kylen6430
    @kylen6430 Před 11 měsíci +1

    I think knurled grip on the handles for these is not appropriate. When you reach down and pick them up, they rotate around the pivot point (wheels). So by design, the handle should be rotating in your hand. Meanwhile, it’s not like they weigh enough to need the knurling in the first place. Anyways…just my thoughts on that
