Being used by Katich in tonight's YB40 game on SS1
Orange and Black colours; definitely not the red/black stickers shown on earlier threads...
-
Think Saxon Sports have most, if not all online now.

i think bruce martin used the firebird in the first test too
-
Ok here we go
firebird low swell replaces rouge
Viper high replaces blade
Kahuna same
Midas replaces recoil
Bubble history small edges high sweet spot
Martin used the viper red
Firebird orange
-
history meaning a historical edition bought back
-
Small edges on the Bubble? Have a look at the link Tom posted!
-
Ok here we go
firebird low swell replaces rouge
Viper high replaces blade
Blade and rogue weren't even in the 2013 range so how can firebird and viper be replacing them?
Its more along the lines of
Midas as a new possible flagship bat
firebird (only lower quality bats ive found online) as a budget bat
and
bubble replacing recoil and viper replacing ricochet (lightweight for lightweight)
-
These aren't replacing UK 2013 models (at least, not yet). They're Aus models.
-
ill put money on them being the uk 2014 bats
-
I've heard they are going to split their markets, in the way Gray Nics do.
I've also heard the Bubble will be coming to the UK, which means the Ricochet will either be gone or will need a drastic redesign, which would be an odd move as its the best seller this year, the first time the kahuna has not been the best seller since it was introduced.
-
i hope they bring the viper and midas ranges over they look class!
-
I was talking about the Australian bat ranges and point taken Liam I have seen them they look big might buy a mid of the range one

Think what the chap commenting on this earlier was saying is that the Rogue and Blade were bats in 12/13 for the Australian summer. So next season will be the first without them.
Is there a definitive list of profiles (high to low etc) and what is replacing what?
-
The bubble softs are really nice.
-
I think the players sifts on show in the ashes are far nicer than any other of the kooka softs

It's a great showcase for gear. Do like the Kahuna softs though, always have.
-
New Midas softs look class. But then again they're basically players

Kookaburra are finally starting to get it right! Their new gear actually excites me for once!
Both the Midas and the Viper look astounding and they're finally getting the colours right.
-
The bubble looks really nice ! It will replace the riochent.
-
I was a fan if the ricochet though...
Do we think Kookaburra will ever ditch the Kahuna?
-
Kook will never ditch the Kahuna ! Ponting used it making tons of records, AB is using it and Guptill is also using it !
-
I just bought a Firebird 1000 and Viper 1200. Firebird is 2.7, 40mm edges and a massive bat. Not a huge a mount of concaving. The Viper has smaller edges and at 2.9 picks up superbly. There is also a lot more concaving on the viper.

pictures please :)

Sorry about the quality. Not the best pics. The Kooks, SG, SF and V100 have just arrived.
I have had the Laver for a while and it has just been sitting there not getting used. It was a replacement for one I bought but was not happy with. I have only just given it a couple of serious net sessions this week and it is sensational. Impressed. It might replace the Thruxton as my match bat this season.
-
You have an awesome collection. The firebird looks amazing !
-
I plan on selling all of those new bats down at my club. As good as the firebird feels I can't justify using it. Especially as I have rogue, recoil and kahuna players models which haven't even had a run yet,
-
For how much did you buy the firebird and viper ?
-
the sunny gold looks quite good. what are your thoughts on the bat?
-
It feels great. Excellent pickup. I might end up using this one although it will be at the back of a long queue.
