squared toe, big edges and by the looks of it a "fin" type extreme concaved swell - very little spine height to speak of.

Lovely looking bat!!

Root was looking a bit 'McElroyish' infront of the camera there.

Really like the look of that! How different is it to a "normal" Octane as might have to get one?

He was destickering a gray nics in the dressing room today - he was sat next to Finn, who was padded up as night watchman.
