BoomBoom had a few light pads, with the Signature 100 being £25 RRP! I thought they looked quite nice too...
Paul, I can just picture your shop covered in wall to wall Boom Boom gear next time I pop in!

Sorry if this has already been asked but.. Did Slaz say how much their training bat would be?

If the RRP is in the brochure then Ryan might know.

Wasn't impressed with the Dynadrive, looked like a badly made Luna.

I wondered if anyone else thought that, it's basically the same shape as the Luna.

Not even sure it was that good. The scoops were cut straight down into the bat near the spine and almost looks like channels from the old Xiphos.

Luna had a bit more tlc with the scooping imho but the scooped area was larger:-

After seeing this to compare, not quite the same - but yeah I agree the scoops were vertical, bit of a strange shape on them.

So how does the new one compare to this?

The Slazenger V600 XL Training Bat has an RRP of £250, so will be £200 in most retailers...

not sure that many people will go that far for one!  Mind you, I can think of at least one person who will be tempted to use one in a match!

So I see M&H have changed their 'softs' colour schemes to blue?

Are there any other changes to their bag lineups?

similar Tim but I got the impression the spine scoop when straight down and the scoop was an "L" shape before curving out towards the edge.  Maybe the others can remember better?

The new M+H top range pads are erm... interesting... - cant remember their softs being blue - just very plain. Their bags have changed back to the normal bag material from the leather, with one absolutely huge bag (which apparently fits in a boot, but they didn't state which car).

The bags are now black and silver, Dan.  In my opinion, they don't look as good, but they are a little bigger.  The Double Decker has gone and been replaced by an even larger one, with a rather unusual shape.

I was pretty disappointed with the M&H kit overall.  I think the softs look worse now, and of all the new stuff, it was only really the Master Lite that interested me, and their prices seem to have gone up more than most.  Can't see us stocking much of them next year...  :(

it was just the length that would be the issue. did seem to stand pretty. probably be looking at an estate or a decent saloon car. hatchbacks are probably a no.

Saying that, my M+H Double decker pretty much fills up the boot in my Picasso, and that ain't a small boot!
