I got the idea for this thread while looking at another earlier - here are some pictures of my Cosmo collection.

Here is my collection of kite flights and 23mm spinning stems - the darts are my first set of customs:

Here are various signature flights and some more stems - the John Part's at the top are my favourites of these:

The various other shapes I have tried out - the only ones I really hate are the slims, and not too sure about the pears, I find all the others ok though:

Since taking the above pics I also got hold of some sets of the new Rocket Inside shaped flights and also of the Fit Shaft Airs - I love the 2-tone Fit Shaft Airs:

I also got some more signature flights at the same time - these are all Japanese players. The skull ones at the top say "The King Is Here" lol:

I also have the Fit Shaft Air's in yellow, green and clear black - here they are on the Kong golds, Jamie Lewis Rastas and Kong silvers:

Finally I also have a set of kite shaped Delta flights - here is a pic of a max I hit with them:

As you can see I am a bit of a Cosmo addict

Nice collection there mate , I positively cringe when i think how much that lot has set you back !But a very nice collection none the less

Great collection Mike, you should start your own Cosmo shop!

Wow didnt think many had more than me. Those two toned you had to order from japan? Are they spinning or fixed

I think I've actually got 5 or 6 more sets that I didn't take a picture of lol. As for the two tone stems, they are spinners.

great collection you got there mc! the john part flights are my favourites as well, maybe cause im biased haha.

the other thing i've noticed is how much darts has changed me. i was looking at those pictures and thinking of the prices involved, but then i remembered i'm also a road cyclist who rides on a 300 dollar seat :o.

Before I took the game back up I used to spend loads of money on cd's and dvd's each month - now I just buy darts or accessories instead, and I think I actually spend less on this hobby.

Holy crap man.....what is pictured is over $700....very nice! If you want to get rid of some of the Part fights I could use some....lol!!!![b]

I'm guessing it may be a little more than that but I'm not sure I should check lol. As for the JP's, sorry but they are my pride and joy, followed closely by the 2 tone stems lol.

If you are desperate for some though then AAA Plus Trains & Darts in Ohio sell them, along with a few other Cosmo bits - here's a link to the JP's:

Very good collection and a like the idea behind the stems and flights
its just price puts me off buying any more and the reason a went to my tried trusted med deflecdtagrip stems
and extra hard 100 micron strenghth flights

But the price of Cosmos would have to go right down more so for me and fellow Edinburgh and Fife darters
to buy ive found out ..But ye very good collection you have there ..

Mc .. Dae ye have a part in the Cosmo business by any chance m8 ;)

You Bastard! Lol. All the Cosmo stuff I've wanted that DC don't carry and now you've shown me where Ill spend my drinking fund.

beautiful collection mate, thats lots of dinero there.

It's grown a bit since these were all taken as well lol

I have a set of Rasta's 24 gm a 10/10 dart for me. what weight is yours?

22g - agree they are a great dart

The cosmos are nice, and a very nice collection:)

But I dont like them because they are too short for me
They feel a lot shorter then my medium ones

Can anyone tell me if there are longer cosmos?

Not sure what the longest is, think its 38mm Extra Long

Well I dont mind admitting that I am well and truly JEALOUS of that lot

Which length did you try? If it was the 28mm then they would be a little shorter by a couple of mm's - the equivalent Cosmo for medium stems is 31mm

Thanks Grip! Will check it out

Mc: It was the 31mm I tried, and they were too small to be compared with a medium sized stem. But I think I will try the 38 mm cosmos

Mike, I know ya were the 1st of us Cosmo fans to get the Rockets a while back.
How did you get on with them?
I've been playing super shapes and wonder if the difference is that they taper on the outside edge where the rockets are straight, and maybe a bit rounded on the top?

I just got the rockets last week. I didn't really notice a difference at all in the action.

I'm trying the Super Shapes at present, and I cant make up my mind if there is much difference between them and the standards.

Well I can believe the rockets might not be any major difference from a s. shape as very similar.

As to Grip and the standard comparison to s. shape I found the shape didn't flutter like the standard did regardless of stem length, and being slimmer I wasn't deflecting off them near as much. What length stem ya using Grip?

I'm using short stems, 18mm I think, but the Target Sprints are 53.9mm long and 23g, which is a long dart for me as the scratches on my nose testify!

I tried kites last week and they seemed to dip a little, but worked a bit better when I threw with a little more force. This week I have been using the Super Shape but have to admit my throw seems a little off this week, so may not be a good time to judge the effect of the different shaped flight.

I'm just trying out all the shapes of Cosmos I have, may try the Fantail next week.

I mainly use the kites in matches, but I didn't notice any difference between them and the rockets to be honest. I'm really into the clear Air flights at the moment so may even order some of the clear or clear sparkle rockets depending what bonus I get next week lol

Do you have a fast forceful type throw Mike?

Not especially forceful, but not exactly slow either - somewhere inbetween really lol
