Mongoose ToRQ pre launch images
Here’s some pre-launch photos courtesy of Nick Lawson (@Lawse on twitter), one of the owners of Mongoose Cricket. The formal ToRQ launch is on Monday at Lord’s featuring Trescothick and Gareth Andrew.

With white stickers, a ‘mini-splice’ and mid placed middle it’s a change from the CoR3 and Mmi3 from last season. What are your thoughts?










I have the original CoR3 Pro that bat has no Splice, it’s made from a single piece of wood, do you know what is the difference that is made with splice and why the newer versions include Splice? I also got custom Pro this year and it had a splice but after playing 3 matches the bat broke in 2 pieces. It was supposed to be the highest quality willow. You can view the pictures of my Mongoose on my website GalaxyUnitedcc.Com the pictures are on Banner main page they rotate.
Hi Asif,
The original CoR3 did have a splice, but it is hidden below the grip and binding. For 2011 they’ve just brought the splice down 2″ lower so it is very slightly visible.
I don’t know the reasons behind it, but it is a design change for 2012. The CoR3 bat profile has also changed for 2012. The bat pictured above is the new ToRQ, a new full length bat from Mongoose.
