Do those Aero grips just go strait onto the twine?
Or on top of a base grip? ???

Straight on the twine. I tried them and found them to be comfortably the worst grips I have ever used but apparently if you use Aero gloves they work great! I think they were designed to be used together..........

Yeah, if you use them without Aero gloves then they aren't very grippy. But with the Aero gloves, they're really soft and comfortable and really, really, really grippy

would you say the quality of the aero gloves overrides the design or are they not much different to normal gloves?

They feel pretty different one to normal gloves. At first I found I was gripping the bat too hard because they're pre-bent and you don't have to try as hard.

Your heavy bat?

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

yes, doesn't pickup like a 2'15 after playing with it today. Still too heavy for me lol. Think Simmy has the weight ranges covered with a 2'9/2'12/2'15 :-)

Nice weight though
