Is this a Skyer?
« on: August 24, 2013, 12:36:57 PM »

Hi, brought these and they look/feel identical to a  Skyer however they say BOOM CLASSIC on them which is confusing me. I realise there are different ranges of Skyer but the lower ones are Pink and Green I believe?
Can anyone confirm if these bats are identical to the top of the range skyer?

PS. When I purchased it, it had the product SKU as SKY001 which after researching, appears to be a top of the range SKYER

Looks as if it could be, the difference is in the density of the foam though which is impossible to tell from a photo.

Fusion own the "Skyer" trademark, so may be related to that. And they've had to change the name?

Hummmmmm,

My guess would be not, because skyies are made by fusion? I though, I could well be wrong or not have the full picture, don't know much about them.
