They do the heavier weights as iv got a few but you'll generally find the 2.12-13 dont go so well in a retail environment as everyone is usually after a 2.7/8/9!

yes, but not in long handle or blade!

Sorry for lack of updates to the thread - I've had my hands full with some massive Aero and Gray-Nicolls deliveries this afternoon!

We will be shooting a video review of these Carbines on Sunday, which will answer all the questions on here and more.  I would recommend you guys check that out if you're interested in finding out more about the Carbine.  I don't actually know which one the 2.8 is, to be honest, but that's the one I want, so maybe I shouldn't say even if I did!!  :D

I do have a 2'12 Carbine which needs knocking in over Winter so Simon has been good enough to lend my his (fully knocked and played in) Carbine which weighs 2'9 for a little net last Thursday.
And I got to say, it went like a cannon! And it felt effortless too. When I started playing exspansive shots, the balls were seriously travelling so these are very responsive bats!  :D

We shot the Carbine video this afternoon and focused mainly on the 2.8 one in that.  Should be up on our channel within the next three days...

It's long overdue for a true bat manufacturer, to be passionate,,critical,,innovative ,,and above all, he actually gives a sh#t about what he produces.
The way these bats both look,and more importantly perform,,has to be seen to be believed


My faith in pod shapers has been well and truly restored.
I'm looking forward to destroying bowling attacks next season with my Affinity Spectre,,and hopefully my son and his Affinity Carbine,(looks wayyyyy too good to use!) will perform for Somerset

Thank you Marcus

From what I know mate yes he does, I believe he learnt under SAF but has since gone on to better things. I personally have never met him or used his bats but a lot of people I have spoke to speak very highly of him.

I think the bats look lovely and the one I saw was used to make a solid century. I also think that if I was going to pay £300+ for a bat I would choose one made my someone who had more experience in bat making than a couple of years. That is a personal choice, I do not question the ability of Affinity, just that it's a big outlay on an undoubtedly well marketed product.
