As the title, guys - what else do you want to see from our YouTube channel?

Please reply with your suggestions! Is there anything in particular that you want to see in future, or is there something within videos themselves that need improving? For example, we had a great comment earlier on in the GN1000 duffle bag thread about not showing enough of the bag itself, so am hoping to get similar comments on here.

The channel needs to keep developing and improving, and we can't do that without knowing exactly what you, the viewer, wants to see, so please help!  :)

Better camera work more focuesed on the presenters.

We love you and Chris, but better views of the product are always good.



Short previews as well as long.
Different people like different things. I can sit and watch you ten minute bat reviews, but I try to show them to some team mates, and there bored after a few minutes.
So maybe do a short review, and a long review of each product.

I think no more than 5 mins for a review.
And a set of calipers for the spine height measurements.
Guest reviewers (the Fat Cat? University chum & England reject Nick Compton?)
Maybe the price on the strapline at the start of the video?
And less foreboding music.

Otherwise, keep on keeping on.

maybe tapping the bat with a ball aswell, just because from past experience a bat can sound great with a mallet and not with a ball and in some cases ive had bats sound crap with a mallet but sound and ping very well when bouncing a ball on!

Loving the idea of short and long videos for the same product.  I will need to learn how not to waffle though, that may be pretty tricky!!  :-[

Cheers, Tony.  We have done this in a few videos, but it's the minority, and you're right, there can be a difference, so we will try and do it more.

Have a clock running behind the camera so you know what timing you are on, and have a basic script and plan for the time so you have structure and it'll flow nicely and should stop you waffling (if that's what you do).

Maybe its just me, but I would love to see zero emphasis on the decals (or maybe leave that for the very end). I find myself skipping the intros because to me, the decals (at least on bats) are irrelevant.

Love the videos, really useful to actually see an item and hear an informed opinion rather than endlessly staring at the same stock images trying to get a feel for a bit of kit.  However, if I have one request its about bag reviews, all reviewers from all sources (not just you guys!), focus on how many sets of pads/gloves/keeping kit etc you can get in a bag but there rarely much on the practical aspects such as where your towel and washbag is going to go especially when wet or what your supposed to do with your whites/warm up gear whatever.  If you could add this in it would give you a lead over the other guys, for me anyway  :)

Cheers for all the vids and keep up the good work, even if you think my idea is a non starter I'll still be watching

Hi paul,

I love your video's. I get a little thrill when they pop up in my subscipton box  :-[

Dont stop your long video's. Short ones dont satisfy me and longer more detailed reviews make me want to buy things more.

IMO chris isnt very good at bat reviews but is great at the softs. You seem to be the opposite much better at bat video's

I have said it before but a ping rating would be great as it is hard to gauge the ping over a video and to compare with other bats.

Also sometimes the camera isnt level with the bat when you are showing concaving and it is hard to see

Please,Please keep doing these video's

Thanks
