Come on Pete, you could at least post some pictures...

Just as well I only had my iphone on me take the pics!

They were great bats but I don't like the square toe - more for the Aussies!
I'm sure they have revamped the 2012 Quantun back to have the rounded toe!

Im not usually a fan of a square toe but these are different (no idea whY). I prefer the pink to the red they are bringing out in 2012 as well

When I was there, I did say that if I purchased one then I would send it to one of the guys to round the toe off anyway - it wouldn't cost a lot and problem solved!
If you like the square toe then no problem to start with! 
They were generous profiles and look nice!

Pete, i may have missed it, but you should post a pic of the bat you picked up as well.

Yes I am intrigued to see this as I am sure I will have picked it up myself at some point!

[petehosk]

I will post them later! Haven't taken pics yet but I will.

Plus pics of the sachin as that's a beast although your one is as well

Excellent. Loved the bit where you told the Aero rep what you thought of his samples by the way!

[roco]

He was not impressed with either of our reactions although Asad did drop us in it by calling us down stairs to ask opinions

[thecord]

Yes that does put you under a bit of pressure! I did a runner a couple of weeks ago when the Boom Boom rep was in there and started getting his samples out. Luckily I had already made my purchase so I didn't have to reveal my thoughts on their kit!

[petehosk]

I couldn't lie! After tapping up some of the bats upstairs and my bats, and then I tap them up and they are like planks, what could I do! 
And then the Aero bat tapped up nicely!! SO what are they doing pushing the Nike bats when the Aero bats are better? And Roco and I did question why a rep selling these would not pick better Nike bats to show to customers.
Roco did say that it was better for the rep to show the normal quality so the customer knew what he was dealing with, but when the bats are not great then what are Aero doing?

[thecord]

It does make you question whether the reps actually have particularly great knowledge

[Joe]

Who are the aero bats made by?

[Buzz]

did you say there are some Nike bags Pete? I haven't been through all the pics yet!
were there Nike duffle bags?

Top work Pete! Great to see pics of Asad's place, especially since I'm unlikely to get chance to go myself. Much appreciated!
