Just been tidying my kit to see what I have and pack it away for a couple of months.

I managed to forget that I had an old bubble so decided to compare it to the new bubble I bought from Vitas the other day.

They are both a similar weight and the size difference is quite surprising.

Not sure of the exact age of the old one but I know one of my u13 team mates owned it back then all about 17 years old. I used it in a few games last year and it went well enough.

Wow - I have never seen the older Kook Bubble bat. Looks nice mate. Is it still in playable condition or are you keeping it for sentimental reasons :-) ??

That's an interesting comparison. I picked up a bubble from Jake too, looking forward to giving it an airing when nets start. I've always wanted one since Alex Stewart used a bubble to spank the Windies around the park in the early 90s.

Brought some memories back with the picture of the old bubble! Had one of those as my first bat circa 2000/01! Shame Kookaburra didn't stay true to the original shape like GN did with the scoop/dynadrive.

Definitely still playable just too light for me.

Saw one of those still in use a couple of seasons back.
