Best 28's are those which are free. Ask my sons. They love the 28 and i buy all of them for them. Oh well, I am spending their inheritance. HS and STS both last about the same for me. BUt old habits die hard so I buy the red ones first. Still have a few thousand of the old style but am saving them for my old age. For what they bring on EBay I might end up selling them for cash on EBay.
