Chris, Whats your technique?

I get mine towering high, no-one else at my club can get the same height as me...:-)

[stevie]

That commentater catching bit was funny. Nass and Athers were quite good though the best bits were the catches when they fell.

[Chrissy]

I just hold my hand at the bottom of the handle with my index finger over the back of the groove if you know what i mean? How about you?

[Talisman]

Dobbs, I'll think you'll find that the bats are Kashmir based...

[Chrissy]

So how do you get yours so high then?

[Dobbs]

Dobbs, I'll think you'll find that the bats are Kashmir based...

Oh... my argument defused then lol

[Tom]

The back is Kashmir, as it's not the wood which generates the power it's the foam. There's little point in doing it from EW, as it firstly is in short supply and secondly makes no difference to the performance.

I have an early prototype of the Skyer which is from English Willow, doesn't go anywhere near as far as the newer ones.

[Talisman]

I know that Tom, being that you have seen the new version could you tell me if the handle is better, that is my only conclusion on how I would improve it. Mine had too small a handle, poorly bound and the grip was awful. I had it bound again and fitted an English grip and it is perfect. I would think that a better made handle which was stiffer would generate more power and allow more control.

i was watching mark garraway on the stanford game last night with the black skyer and saw how high he got it, i cant get it even nearly that high am i holding it wrong or something?

[Talisman]

Strong arms and plenty of practice.

[jandgcricket]

Agree Mike.  Practice is just what you need with the skyer, its just a nack to get maximum power.  Even if your not strong or don't have the nack its still pretty easy to get a decent height and accuracy.

[Chrissy]

Okay cheers boys! havent really had the time to use it really just a few quick smacks in the garden and outside but havent had the space to give it a real hess in the air!

[Chrissy]

Does anybody know if Skyers are going to be produced in different colours such as the black for the stanford and stuff? and are these going to be available to the public?

[Dobbs]

What are the 09 Fusion softs gonna be like if anyone knows?

[Nozza]

ok I have gone over the top in my arguement without a doubt. Fusion have increased there business to a point that they have needed to raise the price.  THey are a business and their primary goal  is to make as much money as possible. I just wish they had made the old one 90 quid and kept it for the individuals.

Sorry fusion
