Well if you are asking who makes better bats - the answer is always Tim at newbery and I'm sure Andrew Kember wouldnt disagree with this statement. With regards to softs, this year salix have the edge but last year i would have said newbery were better.......it's all very subjective with regards to softs.

Have salix changed their softs much as i think last years looked great?
As for bats i think newbery will generally make a better bat.

salix have made minor adjustments to most of their softs, but nothing drastic. continuing with the pod black and have introduced the pod red gloves. it all looks top notch.

I think red would look better if they do it right, if they have a too pale/garish red it could look very tacky

Red palms on the gloves sounds good.
Would be interesting to hear who you guys think press their bats better?

Ahh I'm getting even more confused.. From reading all the posts so far, Newbery has a better bat maker and press their bats better yet Salix is better

I'm looking at either Fera Grade One or a Krakatoa SPS around the 2.8-2.9 range.. Which would you chose?

I think the soft goods are made by SS for both. If you see on the SS website you will see many similarities between their softs and those supplied to and sold by Newbery and Salix.

thats what i thought

slogger02 · « **Reply #27 on:** October 30, 2009, 02:50:21 PM »

the build quality of their softs are identical really. the design quality is what differentiates them. salix are winning.
CD0070 - get a krakatoa sps!
