The Beast: Excellent choice.
Review of kookabura little beast cricket bat by
sam1060
Advantages: Long lasting, light, kookaburra, kashmir willow
Disadvantages: hasnt got a big middle.
...The Bat
The Bat is a very good Bat. The middle is'nt very big, although when you hit it, boy, its beautiful. Its so natural and i would probably say when you hit the middle it is delicious. the bat is made of high quality kashmir willow, and because it is kookaburra you can bet that it was very well made. All bats are pre-knocked in, but kookaburra do recommend at least 1 hour of knocking in.
Feel
The bat feels very good. Its light and very manuverable. Its very good if you like light bats, like myself. the only bad thing i could say about the feel, is that as soon as you dont hit the middle, you get that horrible feeling in your hands, which is not unusual, but it happend alot more with my kookaburra, compared to my new woodworm.
Lastability
this bat lasted me the best part of 2 full seasons, indoors and out and also in the nets. i...

If the shoe fits wear it.
Review of Shimano R121 by
fun2night4us
Advantages: Compatable for LOOK, SPD and TIME cleats
Disadvantages: Only one color scheme
...The Shimano R121 shoe is a very durable and reliable shoe. It is compatable to 3 different cleats: Look, SPD and Time, which makes it very versitale for those of us with more than one bike with different pedals. Although it is almost not worth the trouble of changing cleats, as it is much easier just to buy new shoes instead of removing one cleat and re-installing the other and making all the required adjustments.
I have now had this pair of shoes for about 8 or 9 months and have logged way over400 hours and countless miles in them and they are showing less wear than could be expected.
I chose to use the Look cleat with my shoe and once I changed froom my Lake shoes to the Shimano shoes I noticed a tremendous amount of added comfort. The soft inner-lining makes the wear on the achillies and ankles minimul while still having...

Dry Ice and X Dimension
Review of Footjoy Golf Shoes by
V70R
Advantages: Waterproof,Durable,Lightweight
Disadvantages: Large sizes can be hard to obtain. Replacement footbeds unobtainable.
...Dry Ice Size 11XW
Struggled to obtain XW fit but eventualy some were brought in from the States.
Very comfortable shoe. Temperature control worked well. Cool feet in Arizona in 108F and warm feet in UK winter.
Shoes in very good condition after two years but need new footbeds(in soles) tried to get hold of these from Footjoy but they are unable to supply them. Not really good enough for a £130 shoe.
X Dimension Size11W
Could not get size in FJ Gel Fusion shoes. Footjoy not very helpful with this despite numerous e mails to them. Stockist do not seem to stock larger sizes. saw some X dimensions going for £65 in 11 W , to my surprise they fit well.(FJ shoes vary a lot in their sizing due to different lasts used so make sure you try on the shoe you want before u buy mail order.)Very good light shoe. Waterproof. Very good quality...
