Title: Gray Nicolls Australia 09 Gear
Post by: Tom on June 13, 2009, 08:45:42 PM

Introduced to Australia for 09 are the brand new Evo and Dual T20 ranges along with the British models Ignite and Xiphos.

I've uploaded a few pics to give you an idea as to what the ranges look like. Some of it is the same as the UK so has been left out.

i know those evo gloves are powerbows, but, they look better than the powerbows, loving the green!

Dual T20 interesting release especially after Warner ditched it even though he's very useful for T20 and ODIs. I don't think it'll that well because most people will prefer the conventional classic bats, I'd contemplate the Mongoose but not that.

Gotta say, I'm not a big fan of the Gray Nics gloves. For me it's sort of in between cool/modern and classy and traditional, don't like it at all.  Also, the double sided bat is gimmicky crap, no need for it.

The legend range will again be the top of the line, including WK gloves.

Prices have also gone down on most GN equipment I believe.
