Product Details
Product Details
The big-hitter's shape, at an entry price. Maxi is the livery carried by Aiden Markram, Jacob Bethell and James Vince — three of the cleanest ball-strikers in world cricket. The 404 puts that low-swell, no-concaving Maxi profile into entry-grade English willow so you can swing the same shape they do.
Why the Maxi hits so hard
Maxi runs GM's L540 blade — a shortened blade paired with a longer handle to drop the sweet spot lower and give you more leverage through the ball. It's a low swell, full profile with no concaving, big spine and big edges. Front-foot power, and a middle that starts where you actually hit it.
