in the case of this video of Rohit.. he is clearly adding tape to the twine, to make it MORE stiff. he says "to hit shots, you need some stability in the handle". So his view is that too much flexibility leads to lost power.

There is a fine line between a stiff handle & one that has flexibility , a standard handle tries to accomplish both , each manufacturers does it differently , it is something the average player does not think about specifically, a correct handle can make a big difference to your game , everyone plays differently , GN AUS have invested a lot of time in this , hence why a custom players bat can be so different to anothers handle wise eg mike hussey always transferred his favourite handle from bat to bat

you could then go in-depth and look in to the Kippax Wavex handle..

having used one, it is definitely down to personal preference. I did not get on with it, felt like my wrists were going to break even when I timed the ball... this was also a shorter blade and I think that may have made a difference.

Graph in the "Compare" section tells you nothing. What kind of a study is that?

Had a kippax bat with a wavex handle and the middle on the bat felt tiny and tinny. Not sure if it was the handle or the user!
