Fat Bastard

The chunkier brother of the Trailshark 2000. The funny thing is, it's not even that big as shovels go, but it's as big as you'd ever want a shovel to be for digging jumps. It uses the same stamp shape as the 2000, only its slightly wider with a deeper dish, meaning you can shift more dirt at once. It has the same geometry and packing surface area, so whilst it still a great shaping and packing tool, with that extra material (and dirt it can hold) it means more weight, so it's geared more for shifting quickly compared to the lighter weight Ferrari of the 2000 which is geared more for shaping and more sustained shifting.

Basically there are 3 reasons you might choose this over the classic 2000:

1. You dig in lighter, sandier dirt. A sandy load on the end of this is going to be somewhat comparable to a load of clay on the end of a 2000.

2. You dig in shorter, more intense bursts. Whilst you can move more dirt at any one time, a fully loaded Fat Bastard weighs significantly more than a 2000 (especially on the end of a long lever), so it's harder on the body. If you tend to dig for many hours at a time, go for the 2000 - but if you dig for harder bursts of an hour or 2 at a time you might prefer the Fat Bastard.

3. You're just a fucking tank. if you're built like a spartan the efficiency savings of the weight might not mean that much to you - so yeah, go you.
