Hey guys, just wondering if anyone had an old Kookaburra Genesis lying about, and would be kind enough to take some pics for me! Just planning on getting a copy of it made, as I'm looking for a very light bat, and the best light bat I have used have been Genesis' from memory. It would be greatly appreciated if I could get a picture from the toe upwards, handle downwards and the divots.

Cheers

Chad

PS. Not sure whether this is an items wanted post or what, so just posted it under Bats...

I have always wanted one of these with graphite stickers , was there another model too for some reason diablo comes to mind..

[alba caerulea]

There was a graphite-backed Kahuna I'm pretty sure

[nick123]

Nick123 that graphite backed genesis has made me slightly happy inside, wish I'd bought one when they came out

[nick123]

Yeah I was lucky it was the last bat of its type in the store and its a overall rare bat . Just enjoy the pics .

Cheers Nick! I appears the Aus edition Genesis doesn't seem to have divots like the UK one, at least from memory! I just remember my old one being as chunky as anything yet 2lb 8oz. It was crazy! I am just wondering if I should risk getting it copied, as this was a few years ago, so I may not have remembered correctly! The profile was slightly more like this...

Maybe you could talk to Tomtek about making you a one off Wilkie.

Yeah chad mine is different it is thinner and has a more tradional profile . It looks a good bat though .

Here is the carbon beast

Your right it does have some deep concaving.

I had one in size 6 that has split by the handle, the extreme concaving doesn't do it much help.  I found anywhere other than the middle and it was pretty poor performance wise. It's still in 1 piece though so I'll dig it out and get some photos.

Haha I think a lot of them broke. (Mine included) Maybe I should just go for a safer option haha! It did have an explosive middle though! The Genesis and the Beast are probably my favourite Kookaburra ranges.
