Title: SS - new bat model
Post by: Str8bat on January 05, 2010, 09:43:04 PM

Is there an uber model that SS have released called Gladiator? Picked up on CSF that this model is even more exclusive than the Platinum reserve.

Yash, Asad - what's your take on this? What improvements over the Platinum?

Gladiator was run by a guy called Tony something. Kit was made by Champ. Hunts did a couple of bats for him I think too. Also distributes Matrrixx in the UK.

You really can tell the kit is made by champ, especialy when you look on alibaba and champs stuff on there! Just checked their website, bat stickers look vile. However, the plain set of pads look good imo.

The pads with the yellow inner lining look very similar to the GM Teknik Lite Original pads.....

Not quite, i dont think any big brand uses that design actually. Look very similar imo to the new nike pads that are due out next year in india.
