Slaz have licensed the technology

What I love abotu that video is that the bat you see George Bailey using, which was a tester, looks like it is a Dynadrive!

It's a county he is using

I think they're just his old V500 bats stickered up as they appear to still have the cut outs near the toe.

Have you seen the size of the cut outs on the v500? I doubt very much you could keep a decent bat with that much sanding

your right I can also see were the old v500 stickers were on the back of the bats too as they haven't faded.

[Alvaro]

May be where the stickers were; no cut outs in Prior's bats...

[Nickauger]

Maybe Prior's aren't Slazengers then?

[Alvaro]

They should be.

[Nickauger]

Then how would they sand the grooves out of the back?

[Alvaro]

He didn't get V500 stock shape?

[Nickauger]

Aha I see. Hadn't thought of that reason lol. I doubt they are slaz's anyway mind.

Good innovation but would like to see if it makes any difference. Looks like they have patents on the TAS Inserts technology.

I am the co-owner of TAS Bats. We had a university study completed last year which compared the ball rebound velocity from 2 identical Slazenger bats - 1 with TAS inserts and 1 without. Rebound velocities were up to 27% higher on the bat with TAS inserts. We also confirmed our claims that the sweet spot has been extended not just up and down the blade, but also outwards from the centre. Further, we also confirmed that the rotational forces in the handle from shots hit off centre have been reduced by up to 10%. Several years of actual on field testing has also shown that TAS inserts make the bat more robust with no major edge damage occuring on the bat edges. Follow our facebook page at facebook.com/tasbats01 as we will be posting some of these results over coming weeks.

You are correct - it is a county bat.
