if you can get a free spyder extra go for it...that way you can get better **** for it..depending on if ur playing rec ball or tournaments...id def get a better barrel 14" (J&J ceramic, Custom products one piece, dye boomstick) it all depends on ur price range...get an e trigger if the xtra dont have one and a e hopper and you should be fine for now
get the free xtra, and buy an imagine, and us ethe xtra for backup. I was suprised with the quailty of the 05 imagine, and how i could adjust teh trigger to almost nothing. THe new imagine IMO is one of the better spyders out right now, and for only 108, its a huge bargain
I'm gonna have to jump on the band wagon and tell you to go with the xtra. I had one for a while and it served it's purpose very well. Easy to clean and maintain. Eventually you will need to upgrade but use that xtra for a long while and when you have plenty of experiance you can move up. Good luck with whatever you get.
you'll be better off with teh imagine, im guessing the xtra is probobly used, and spending 90 bucks on a frame and then have a used xtra, just isnt the same as a new imagine
