Do we know if Hale's uses that weight? 2.12+
I have heard that even Warner's bats he uses were much lighter than the replica's that were being sold. heard one of his was around the 2.9 mark at that size.
My point being that I know the pros get the best but if you're paying top dollar should you get the weight as well?
-
Haha true. I'm just talking about the cost of one of these bats and for the price you should also get the best willow.
Yeah i did see that Warner video, I'm talking about one of his bats from last year though as Ive heard on good authority that his were so much lighter than the replica's.
Ive also had a Kane Williamson replica and held his actual bat from his bag and his one was bigger and lighter. Just food for thought.

Have you not seen @simonmay5 GN bat from AUS, that's 2.9 and a monster
-
Yeah that was awesome. Sometimes then.

GN Aus has been cranking outstanding bats at a lighter weight. Meulemans's custom XXX grade bats made by GN are an example - monster middles with light weights!
-
All the xxx11 are made by Stuart and are fantastic bats even the lower grade bats are extremely good value as well

"Innovative double profile combines lightweight performance from a full blade"
What?

What?
Yeah i was wondering wtf aswell.
-
"Innovative double profile combines lightweight performance from a full blade"
What?
Indeed, basically, the edge has an edge.
-
I was told the halestorm profile is different, same profile Hales uses without the double edge and similar to last years halestorm ??
-
The double edge is to give the impression of a massive edge when looking side on

Interesting, how come yours has green stickers, I thought the colours were grey/gold?
-
Its a special edition model

I may be making this up, but I'm sure I heard/read somewhere that you can request any of the models in any colour scheme this year.
Anyone able to confirm either way?
-
I think It was mentioned in the ijc lords review video you could get the stickers in other colours if requested.

Interesting design. I am curious about the performance of this shape.
-
Why would it be any different? There’s still a lump of wood behind a face of the bat

@jblowe I haven’t I’m afraid, tho can do one of the powerbow6, kronus, predator3 if that’s any use
-

I understand that. I am asking because it is a unique shape - it almost has three spines. So, how it feels when ball rebounds, how it pings, etc. are all questions I am interested in.

Just a clever design to get past the rediculous bat gauge regulation
-
This looks to be a cross between the omega and vortex?
-
@neilhembrow180 Have you picked up your Halestorm Yet?
-
Hi mate..yes but i am unable to post the pics here for some reason.
There was big cock up between myself and the retailer.
When i pre ordered the bat i was aware that they wete not in stock so i called them to ask if it was possible to let me know when they would be in..anyways i metioned something on twitter to them about the bats being available to go pick one out ..they replied with they are made to order so i will not be able to pick one out...i was bit gutted to be honest as i would never have ordered one..anyways the bat gets delivered to me and its absolutley amazing...but way way to heavy for me which i had a feeling it would as these bats are huge hence me needing to go feel one and pick my own..im taking the bat back tomorrow for exchange but they dont have any top end grays in stock..so will be going for something else..they are completely fine with this and been really good ..

So annoying that the edges are such a boring size now. Restrictions suck.

Own up, who bought these?
Whoever bought them now has to prove they exist... :D

So i took the kronus back on saturday..very disapointed with the gray nics bat they had..i understand they are having issues with grays...i ended up buying an absolute belter of a new balance tc1260..not the LE..this one was far better than the LE...ALWAYS hand pick the bat guys and gals..there is always a hidden gem...photos to follow
