Can't beat a competition pro joystick!!!  Mine has taken a right hammering and still works perfect  :lol:

The zipstick can  ;-)
I still have my old zipstick and it works just fine today. The design was pretty similar in itself, but what i did not like about the competition pro was the lack of microswitches in the buttons and the buttons themself had a tendency to get stuck after a few years of usage.
Also my hand get tired out more using the competition pro due to stronger resistance. This is not always a good thing when it comes to games like dirty moves and similar  :-D
But when it comes to look and such, then the competition pro beats the zipstick. The joystick itself also feels a tad more robust with the exception of the buttons.
