Yes the profile would have been revealing considering he’s been using a very different profile

GN have started using 5 spring handles as well. I believe GN Aus introduced it first in the Cobra model from last year - I believe the thinking is that you have a more flexible handle coupled with thicker shoulders to try offset the amount of mass they have higher up yhe blade to balance for the lower middle. That way the bat won't feel too stiff

Interesting. Didnt know that GN did this to their bats now. Looks like CA were ahead of the game. Would be good to hear reviews from those who have used these handles.

Personally not a fan of anything that makes handles more flexible. But hey, people buy it so why not!

In my opinion too stiff a handle and you risk shoulder splits (assuming thin shoulders).
Need a good balance.

Please share link, if at all possible.

From a maximum return of energy to the ball perspective, the stiffer the better, but harder feel in the hands and susceptible to splits.
