Thought I would start a topic for anyone has seen any of the new range of gear. Obviously the Asics shoes and some GM but is there anything else
-
The gear you're seeing now is 2013/14 Australian gear, it may/may not be released over here.
For Aus there's the new Puma Kit, Kookaburra, GM and GN gear all released.
-
Yeah I am an aussie
When are the ranges expected to be released
-
Gray Nics will launch their UK range to the trade next month, Powerspot expected to return, x181 also part of the range, talk of both Oblivion and Powerbow being dropped, but I'm not so sure.
-
E41 scoop also looking very likely to be arriving in the UK.
-
From Nike the new 2014 range includes the new shoe range - the Lunardominate (batting shoe), Lunaraccelerate (bowlign shoe) and the Potential (rubber soled shoe). These will eb out in the UK before Christmas.
From Aero there will be our new KPR Vintage Wicketkeeping gloves - completely coated in silicone and guaranteed to improve your catching. We've had oen season trialling these downunder adn have got them pretty much perfected.
We've also got as few other new things up our sleeves, but are very much focussed on the new Nike shoes.
-
Strange that GN feel the need to launch their new range a whole two months earlier than everyone else - never really understood that...
New range from Nike sounds good - I like the look of them too - so I'm looking forward to getting those in. Lovely Christmas presents they will make! :)

This new?
-
I want to see the profile before i commit to having one as my match bat next season, but i really like the graphics.
-
Gloves look crap
-
cant see the picture :( link?
-
I'm guessing its the Powerbow Generation X...
Bat stickers don't look to bad, I think I'd be happy to have them on my bat.
Gloves do look atrocious though!

Maverick sees an update too
-
Powerspot returns. As you can see in the background
(http://i.imgur.com/WfpFMTZ.jpg)
-
it must be annoying to some people that have already purchased GN gear this year to see that it's outdated.
-
So far the range looks like: Maverick, E41, Powerbow, Powerspot, Dynadrive? Scoop? Legend, A61? Oblivion? X181?
I have read rumours of the oblivion being dropped and hope they aren't true!
Not a fan of how the softs are looking but the Powerbow and E41 pads don't look so bad...
-
Is that Mark Wallace, Glamorgan W/K Batsman dressed in a Yorkshire Vikings Kit?

I like the look of that bat - very Evo-esque... I still don't think it's the most attractive thing in that photo though! ;)
-

Som is and some isn't. Grays are actually one of the better brands for this, Kookaburra change their entire range every year.

Agreed - I understand GN are probably keeping the stuff they released last year for the 2014 season(except for the retro stuff), they usually have a 2 year turnover with their bats.
-
Interested in seeing more of the Powerspot. No doubt that it'll be a little pricey though!
-

you can see far left the bat Cook may have been using :) all this GM/GN/Kook gear looks good, ill be investing :D :P ;)
-
A new GN called the Nemesis is coming!
-
I think it's a bit ridiculous that they are re-branding stuff that they've only just launched.
-
Them batting pads look very nice indeed both the green and blue and red
-
Just saw one of Jason's Youtube Video's and the Hammer Black Edition is Coming Soon
-
If they are going to go truly retro, the Powerspot has to have a blue grip - that's what I remember Gower and Atherton using...
-
Meuleman's in Perth has just posted these photos on their Facebook page of the latest XXX range from Gray Nicolls, which is exclusive to their store I believe.
Gray Nicolls XXX VII Concept Bat with 60mm edges (!!!!)

Tripple...?

Tripple...?
Good pick up. They've obviously not noticed it :-[
-
Cant wait to see Prices for the powerspot will be grabbing myself one of them.
-
that must weigh a ton. 60mm edges - spine must be 80mm and looks like very little to no concaving. yes they have removed wood from the splice area but not that much. thats either a shorter blade, some miracle cleft or a heavy bat!

They've said the weights start at 3lb.

A pink bat from Gray Nics, lovely stuff. :D

here is your profile view vitas
-
the shape of that bat looks a bit like an icon with bigger edges.
-
looks similar to oblivion

Wouldn't have thought they'd have changed cooks profile, just different stickers for publicity, apparently he's still going to be using the oblivion in tests

I doubt he will be using the oblivion range in the ashes series.....
Whats the point if grays are giving him a wedge to promote to new range in only the ct, would make more sense to do it during the ashes too to get maximum publicity.
More exposure, means more interest = more money for the manufacturer.
I wouldnt be surprised if alot of the players will be using new ranges during the ashes series to drum up exposure and keep people on edge for the range releases, im pretty sure most companies have used the ashes before as a new range marketing tool

Good work, now they have announced the Nemesis though, i am finding it very hard to resist a pink bat. ???
-
would be very interested in looking at the nemisis! but i dont think i would have the goolies to purchase one, living as close as i do to brighton and all the clubs we play are around this area, people may get the wrong idea
-
If you honestly think having a pink bat makes people question your sexuality then you're very naive.

Peter Trego is in possession of a Nemesis, he and his team mates keep raving about it on Twitter, we have only seen 1 sneek peek at the moment

Im not naive at all, but this is brighton, I got hit on by a bloke when i was out shopping with my missus

I'm guessing the pink gripped bat in the photo before this is also a Nemisis, the back stickers look like they could perhaps be accentuating an interesting shape?
-
Ha, I didn't see that picture Tom! Not sure I like the back stickers!

I think that is your own insecurity creeping through. Who cares what colour bat you have or if you live in or near Brighton.
-
i have no insecurities, my own borther is gay, why should i be insecure
-

Why should you be against a pink sticker set? Because people may think you're gay?
Maybe you're supporting breast cancer charties. Oh wait men won't be able to do that for the fear of being gay...
I think you have shown yourself to be of an immature nature with the previous comment.
-
Crawl back to where you came from roco, i dont need you to tell me if im mature or immature etc

I have no where to crawl back to. I am merely stating your bizzarre comment which you have probably realised were stupid.
-
If you read it closely. It said I merely don't think I'd have the (No Swearing Please) to rock a pink bat
-

Yes I am aware how to read. Hence the line of people may get the wrong idea is the statement I am referring too.
Anyway, it seems that you don't understand my point so I will leave you to get on with your close minded ways.
-
Closed minded??? You have no idea! I am probably the most open minded person there is!

Top work bird! Everyone loves a good anchorman quote!

The Nemesis looks err... interesting :o

-
Just saw that. I'm all for innovative design though. Not personally my cup of tea but I'm definitely intrigued and want one to try out now!
-
interesting design. would definitely like to see more of it. did he use it tonight to get 19* of 5?
-
You all will love it....
it is awesome!
-
it looks interesting and the shape makes perfect sense if you go by the laws of physics!
-
So, we get the Oblivion and now the Nemesis. Noticing a trend here?! I am looking forward to see the GN Air, Thirteen and Rita bats! :)
-
That nemesis made my tea resurface.

Talent cricket just posted the Gray Nicolls catalogue for 2014.

Test Opener pads?
-
Test opener pads version 2 with the air cushion principle best pads ever made in my opinion
Would be nice as long as they sort the wonky top hat out from the legends
-
Never had a pair but someone else did & saw them for sale. an updated pair would be amazing
-
I had two pair the original red branded then the chequered pair man they where good nice small top hat all the gray nicolls pro's used them ashers,Hussain,boon,
-
That Vortex shape reminds me of the Kookaburra Ridgeback.
-
Is it me or does the powerspot look like a legend but with a blue sticker on the back. Good to see some new shapes and thought processes used.
You cannot beat new gear hype.

They did air cushion pad in early to mid 90s
-
Has anyone got a picture of these air cushion pads/ Test Opener pads?

Will the recent warner antics mean that the new blue Kaboom will be dead before its start
