Anyone seen one of these before?  Going to order one to try it out. I'd imagine it may work better with yet another grip over it, but I am curious to try one.

Going to be hard to put it on right also with the way you hold the bat Brucie you may not find it all that comfortable...

I reckon the plastic bag application method would work wonders for that rubber...

Looks like a good idea to me (after I tried a square handle)...

Jake sent me one with a bat i ordered off him... it was horrid! An absolute pr%ck of a thing to put on and made no difference to the feel of the handle. Save your money, Bruce!

Why to these things never come in white?  :(

On another note I think those 2mm guys threw a lot into their marketing campaign, Daniel Vettori did a video showing how to apply them from memory
