Think need this page updating which I am sure they will do soon.

https://www.playwiththebest.com/cricket/how-to-choose-your-cricket-bat/bat-shape.html

That always lags a bit behind, not sure why, maybe nobody but bat geeks clicks on it!

More new GM stock arrived today, this time the Mana and a few more of the Aion's.

Mana is a concave profile and still has plenty of meat in it, noticeably thicker on the shoulders and toe area though which presumably have been beefed up given its lost some weight on the rear.

This 606 example comes in at 2.10 with a 61mm spine, 33mm edges, 21mm toe, 19mm shoulders and a 108.2mm face catering for the scuff too.

Thanks for the update nice bat :) 108mm is great too which suggests maybe aion is deliberately less . Any pics of the concaving

. Are your Aions less width all of them that have arrived by a small amount . Any pics of the new aions ?

Question about the mana. Is it the same shape as a few years back? Or have they completely changed the shape?

Look forward to Tom's reviews. Also, Serious Cricket have hinted that their review should be out very soon. It's in the comments of one of their recent youtube videos from about three days ago.

A friend got a GM today and wanted to know how long is recommended for knocking in and if he should knock his new bat in over the scuff sheet on the edges.
