THE NEW SERIES RANGE 2017
« on: June 20, 2016, 02:59:31 PM »

We have revamped our Series range, and I have been playing about with the visual to display the shape and the middle position - what do you think of the below. Do you think it conveys both clearly?


DB1


DB2


DB3

I like it. I think it makes it both quicker and more simple to determine where the middle of the bat is at a glance.

I would think that the yellow band towards the toe would be shorter in length as the spine height is reducing meaning less meat?

Streaky, without wanting to divert attention away from the wood, will there be a softs/WK update from you fellas at some point?

that's a really nice visual aid when looking at profiles, took me a few seconds to work it out but looks good :)

DB3 is very interesting. I like the new representation. Guessing "red" zone means the area of max value for the shot followed by "orange" and then "yellow".

@The Doctor => How much of a departure are these from the existing profiles ? Will DB2 continue to be a full profile bat ? Will DB1 continue to be concave profile for light pick up ?

DB3 looks amazing. Can we order these now? Or are they out next season?

Excellent idea to show to customers, maybe it's because I'm looking in my phone at the moment but can there a be a box on the side that shows how much concaving as well.

Also great to hear from you as been a bit quite since Dave moved away from the forum

Good stuff, Doc.
Perhaps a horizontal line at a fixed point across each profile would help to compare spine heights. On the other hand, it may look a bit too cluttered. 😕

looks good @The Doctor .. though maybe replace that box on the right, with a picture of the concaving.

great idea certainly makes it quite clear and easy to understand and see the difference between the shapes
