looks to be a very good bow ,it is suposed to be lighter yet still have no perceptible vibration.
Synerzy limbs are what I am going to get with my next bow they compare well to the hoyt FX limbs for stacking ,and performance and with the layer of titanium in the limbs are not meant to twist or torque

I think you really want to try this riser before you buy it. Unlike most (all?) of the top of the line risers it doesn't have a replaceable grip. Some folks that I've talked to really like the grip, others don't like it at all. It is higher than most grips.
Also, the distance between the grip and the arrow rest is smaller than on other risers.
If you have large hands your first finger might around and actually contact the arrow as it is shot. This is probably not a good thing.
Personally, I like the feel of the riser and the grip. The shot feels more solid than with other risers, yet it doesn't feel as dead as with an Axis.
The limbs have had mixed reviews. Some people have found that the limbs have more speed than other limbs. Some have found them to be about the same speed as the Focus limbs, ie, not fast, but acceptable.
They seem to be fairly stable.
Michele Frangilli has used them to shoot some big scores and win a few tournaments so they have to be good.
Around here they are scarce enough that they are considered really cool. Unfortunately, coolness comes at a price. The riser and limbs are more expensive than any other riser or limbs on the market. I'm sure this will change over time.

Would you post your experience with it? What about the limbs?...
Does anybody else use this set of equipment,... other than the Koreans? I meant in the international scene.
See Marty's post..
The italians use it, or the limbs anyway. Natalia Valeeva was testing the riser, but I don't know if she is actually using it now.

What I meant was was there any other personalities other than the mentioned, like Frangilli... and the WHOLE KOREAN TEAM. I guess most of the top 20 archers shoot HOYT.
I am using a Hoyt (TD) but tempted to change to this new WW infinite & synergy limbs...
Anyone has migrated from the same configuration?
Comments are much appreciated.... thks

I should have said that the Infinite an Synerzy limbs are more expensive in the USA than anything else. Seems reasonable that they would be cheaper than some of the Hoyt stuff in Oz, shipping should be a lot cheaper.
As for all of the Koreans shooting Win and Win, or other Korean equipment, that isn't true. Several team members shoot Hoyt. It used to be the case that the Korean team got their equipment through the government run system, but now the Korean members are free to sign sponsorship contracts with whomever they want.
Natalia Valeeva was testing the riser, but I don't know if she is actually using it now
odd rumor.
Natalia Valeeva uses a Hoyt Elan riser and FX limbs (short 40#). This is what she used to win the European Championships early this month. Previously she was using a Radian with FX limbs. Natalia uses a very high grip angle.
She is currently setting up an Aerotec with FX limbs.
About half the Korean A team currently uses Hoyt bows, including the 2001 World Champion, who used an Axis in Beijing and who now shoots an Aerotec. None are contracted to use the equipment.
Most of the other shooters use Samick bows, and a few are currently paid to use W&W bows.
