A short YouTube video by Pro Archer Shot-Coach describing the Rio Lobo as a color scheme for traditional bows (not a limb profile or riser/grip cut). The speaker demonstrates materials and design elements used in the Rio Lobo color scheme — notably an FR4 (G10) solid riser, black glass limbs with a black walnut core (sometimes with carbon fiber), a tribal wolf carving with a gold-resin eye, and optional grip finishes (gator skin, custom stippling). The video notes the scheme is available across the maker's bow series and limb profiles and emphasizes smoothness, speed, and stability.

The Rio Lobo. A little while back, we were shooting aerial targets, and we were using the Rio Lobo to shoot the aerial targets. And we were amazed by how well it was working. It's a real stable bow, and I wanted to just kind of show y' all what's in the Rio Lobo. The Rio Lobo is a color scheme. It is not a limb profile. It's not a riser cut or a grip cut. It's a color scheme. So what the Rio Lobo is made up of is you've got a solid FR4 riser, or probably better known in the bow world as G10. We use a material called FR4, but it's a glass composite, so it's got a solid riser of FR4. Gives it a lot of stability. The limb is black glass cord with black walnut. So you've got lots of speed and smoothness with that walnut core. Some of them we put carbon in. This one here has just the walnut core. This is the original long curve in the Rio Lobo color scheme. You can get the Rio Lobo color scheme in any of our bow series, any limb profiles. Also has a tribal wolf carved into the opposite side of the shelf. And the eye of the wolf is gold resin. This particular real lobo has a gator skin on the grip. So over here, we've got some other real lobos. That was the original long curve. This is a swift, long curve right here. Swift, long curve with the gator skin. Once again, the tribal wolf in there. Here's a Rio Lobo in the B model. One piece recurve. This one has custom stippling on it for extra grip. The Wolf, once again, this particular one has a very center core of 20,000ths of carbon fiber surrounded by the walnut and the black glass, which makes it incredibly smooth and fast. Black glass tends to be a real smooth glass composite. So it's. It makes for a very smooth shooting bow. But that's the Rio low bow. You can get it throughout all of our series. Very smooth, very fast, very stable shooting bow. Thanks.
