We pay for it unfortunatly , so next time people complain about bat prices please consider this side of the story for the batmaker :-(

Stickers are beautiful. I wouldn't mind getting a custom with those on.

I think this also shows the quality of aftercare you get from British firms, or at least buying in the UK you get your guarantee.

Yeah it's really good of them to give me a free replacement let alone a free custom. Will probably be changing the shape to something like this with the exception of the spine running through the toe and insignia stickers...







Expect a post on Friday... Might pick up my new kahuna pro on Friday too :)

The turbo revolution or the insignia?  All the bats are on their website.

never really looked on their site before. Just had a quick look and the bats look good. Can't say I like the Aura colour scheme.

The revolution. Saw the insignia in Barrington Sports a while ago and the caerlucx whatever it's called has a nice profile and I like the traditional look

The revolution has been here for a few years now. It's the bat where they drill through the middle of it to make a "hollow power zone".

I've used a Revolution for most of this summer's LMS. Been a fantastic bat and scored loads of runs for both me and many other players!

I seem to remember slazenger doing a bat with a hole going through the blade. Think Andrew Symonds used it.

I'd have thought it would adversely affect it but obviously is fine

drilling a hole through middle is a good way of shaving of 2 ounce of a bat weight! regarding performance increase? i didn't really see any.

I had a bat snap on me earlier this year after 1 game :( was massive as well probs a bit dry!

Tony has confirmed the bat was indeed storm damaged. Now the choice of stickers. The auras are tempting me :o
