Anyone bring/buy any particularly nice kit?

I pre-ordered the B&S limited edition gear, I choose a B&S Supreme that was on the shelf but needs a little clean up so the guys agreed to send the new stickers to Jake so he could match the bat to the new softs. Really impressed with the quality of B&S gear espicially from there bats, the performance from all of the bats there was very good on tapping an od ball. The new LE softs have pittard s on the gloves and a traditional pad. Will post pics when there ready which I believe is sometime in December.

The bat I'm using in the net video was a B&S ST shape that was huge for a 2.10 bat, went like a train when I found the middle. There were two very nice Argon's as well, one being a Graeme Smith flat face reject that was huge.

A great choice, really like the kit in the pics! Has Jake had all the gear delivered or at least the samples as am passing beginning of November?

Was it a stock supreme (shape wise)?

I personally wasn't that keen on the B&S softs for 2014. The two colour schemes (yellow/blue and red/blue) didn't strike me with a wow factor. While the bats were no doubt impressive in profiles, I preferred the old stickers to the new ones on show yesterday. Just me two pence.

No it arrives in December I believe they only had there sample kit with them which is going to other retailers, I know Mark on the day was trying to buy the Scorcher softs for himself on the day.

Yes the Supreme I choose was a stock shaper. The LE bats they had were concaved like a Puma which I don't like and the Supreme I picked was like a ST profile with very little concaving so gonna have that cleaned up and the new LE stickers applied. Don t k ow why but I really like the yellow baby blue combo.

Fattus from memory the Scorcher pads were £50 and gloves £35 and LE pads £62 and gloves £50 or something very similar to those prices, I'm sure Jake will give us exact prices soon.

Chris, is this your head in shot?

If it is, then I shall have to remember to shave mine before we go down to Uzi. We can go as the Mitchell brothers.
