looks like a honeycomb material (like the hunts county modulus). I've seen the middle cut out before, but never with a material behind the laminated area.........would this improve performance???

 This is what was quoted on the website:

"The "Flat Bat" for TWENTY20 cricket. Ian had perfected a laminating process to secure a lightweight insert that gave the bat tremendous rebound qualities. Fortunately for bowlers and fieldsman the MCC changed the laws of cricket and production ceased."
