Bigfoots haven't been produced for more than ten years...
The only options are "XMs" and Strongmans...   I'd say since Costar uses "XMs" for the Filcos they'd also use them in the ABS boards...
Can't get enough of them ALPS

ok, thanks.  That makes sense I guess.

I'm surprised though how little interest there's been on geekhack to open up the abs M1 and take a look at its innards. We've dissected and photographed every other board we've come across ;)
