ARE DIFFERENT ONLY IN SKIN THICKNESS AND REDDER SIZE. THE 6 SKINS ARE .16, THE 7 SKINS ARE .20. (THE ONLY THING I HAD TO DO TO SWITCH FROM A 6 TO A 7 WAS PURCHASE NEW SKINS; I HAD ONLY PURCHASED THE EMP KIT AT THAT TIME). THE RUDDER FOR THE 7 WAS ORIGINALLY SMALLER BUT SIZE WAS INCREASED AFTER SPIN TESTING WAS COMPLETED. THE ORIGINAL WOULD RECOVER, JUST NOT AS FAST AS VAN'S THOUGHT IT SHOULD. THE RUDDER COMPONENTS FOR THE LARGER RUDDER WERE PROVIDED TO ANYONE WHO HAD PURCHASED THE EMP KIT, PRIOR TO THE SIZE INCREASE, (MYSELF INCLUDED) AT NO ADDITIONAL COST. I BELIEVE THE COUNTERBALANCING IS ONLY A MATTER OF YEAR PURCHASED--NOT SURE ABOUT THAT. MINE HAVE THE COUNTER BALANCING WEIGHTS AND WERE ORIGINALLY PURCHASED AS A 6 EMP KIT IN 2000. DO NOT ARCHIVE JUST THOUGHT I'D THROUGH IN MY 2 CENTS.
