be interested to heard from the GM boys about this in regards to why the d3o isnt on all of the glove and only the index and middle finger.....for pro issue gloves i would use the d30 on the entire back of hand covering rather than just in certain sections

i know its prob due to the cost of the raw material but keeping a pro fit would be my main aim as a sponsor paying them endorsement fee's and a couple of ££ extra on the cost price of the gloves would be worth the investment i would say :D

I thought d3o was heavy so therefore if you covered the whole back of the glove it would make the glove very heavy

it would but its not going to be a massively significant difference i wouldnt think when taking into account the padding already present....reducing the impact can be the difference between a break and 6 weeks out or brusing which could be a bit of ice and a 2nd innings return

He was wearing the d3o gloves last week and took one on the knuckles from Akhtar and it knocked him out for a couple of games. Came back then with extra reinforcement on the glove

Yeh don't think it will do much in terms of protection!
