Does a great job keeping the wind out, but more importantly its very easy to remove and slide back on. Besides, it makes it look like a Tribble is attacking the boom. How can you beat that?

I use this with my Rycote baby ball gag and Oktava mod MK-12 condenser mic and couldn't be happier. The wind noise is completely removed. The first time I used a windjammer, I was upset because I thought it wasn't working properly. Then I realized I wasn't hearing the wind...I was hearing the leaves in the tress blowing in the wind. Amazing how much clarity you get out of this product. A+ Rycote.

Very effective for hypercardiods. Sometimes you don't want a full shotgun outside, but you still need the wind protection. The Baby Ball Gag and the windjammer provide very effective wind protection. Unfortunately the windjammer is expensive for what it is - a cloth pouch with some fake fur on the outside.
The only problem with this setup is that the windscreen and windjammer add a bit of weight to your mic and makes it very front heavy. The shockmount you use for hyper might not be firm enough to support the extra weight. This isn't a slam to the product; just something to keep in mind.
I'd give it 5 stars except for the price.

First one I've owned so I have nothing to compare it to. But it does work nicely.
