Lovely Bat! Huge volume and high grain count for the weight. Certainly a bat that would entertain a pro's interest.
Considering ive owned and seen a number of pro bats over the last few years, this certainly puts some of them to shame

That's a beauty!
Must have been pricey, over £300?

Gotta love a good gladiator.

Looks great and they have evolved somewhat over the past couple of years.

Spine height on my 2013 Gladiator is tiny compared to this beast!

Was no where near that figure when converted to AUS, far less
Not going to say exactly but was a lot less that that

amazing looking bat mate. I find gladiator to be the best performing model (in my limited experience) out of the SS range. I have had two, and they always seem to be top drawer compare to the rest (even reserve editions/maximus) - could just be luck of the draw. In the end, they are all probably the same shape with different stickers and its all in our head, but hey, this what the forum is all about.

Agreed I feel that the Gladiator and Reserve Editions outperform all other SS models by quite a margin... Particularly the Gladiator models which seem to have usually more grains than the Reserve so it breaks in faster.
