Ridgeback and the Salix next to it served me well when I was playing 10 years ago, I'd have trouble splitting those. Apart from those, the GN and the CBC, all others have been purchased recently. As I've not played for a while, I don't know if any of them are any good :D
-

The slaz is another Salix praestantia. Why the previous owner preferred Slaz stickers to Salix ones I'll never know.
-
Slaz stickers look fake as well.
Couldn't see the talisman when on my ipod. It looks a beast! Profile pics?

I've put them all away for now and sod's law the Talisman is right at the back of the pile.
Will do profile/closeups tomorrow. It was made with a certain Indian bloke in mind. I'm told he is quite good :D

I wish I could keep it that simple. I really do.
-
I only use 1 bat, just kept my old one as it is a gun and would regret selling it!
2 pair of gloves is just to use 1 in nets to prolong the life of my match gloves.
-

-

Time really. I went off to Uni and never found time since. I have every intention of playing next year though. Already found a team to try out.

Hadn't realised that Andrew Kember's initials were on the old Salix labels!

Yeh, love those old designs. The Atlas is a bit of a beast.
-

Don't know yet, but it has alot of promise on the mallet.
-
Lovely collection, love the look of the hell 4 leather.
Whats the profile of your talisman based on or was it a completely custom shape? Looks marvellous whatever!

It's the Tendulkar shape, made by the person who makes Tendulkar's bats, so it should be pretty good :D
-
Beautiful mate! All of the Salix's look great.
Fera looks quite nice.

Yeh I have a thing for them!

HOw's the pickup on praestantia?
-
HOw's the pickup on praestantia?
Heavier than the Fera, but Praestantia has a lower middle, so it is going to pick up a tad heavier. The Fera is remarkable, it weighs 2'8.5 and picks up like a feather. Never known anything like it.

Make sense, thanks.
I am guessing Praestantia is somewhat like Daemon, no ?
-
Praestantia is more bowed from memory. The most bowed Salix. Daemon is more of a 'traditional' shape. I think Daemon is the least concaved model too.
-
Is Daemon shape exactly like Mjolnir?
-

No, Mjolnir is not concaved at all.

My two Mjolnirs. Compare this to the profile shot on the Uzi site of the Daemon.

Got it, thanks!
