Ive just looked again now and from OZ it would be 54 dollars.Roughly £30 for a grip :o.I dont think so.A few years back I sent a football shirt to Oz.Im sure It was under £6.Surely I m ust be able to get one in the UK? On the Gray Nicolls website they had grips but minimum of 10 but not the zone grip.I may have to ring them tomorrow

I assume you looked on Chappell cricket centre or similar? Their overseas shipping prices are extortionate.

The zone grips have not arrived into the UK yet. I ordered loads in November, but no stock as of yet.

Any custom made bats we've had made at Robertsbridge for customers have had old style scale or chevron grips on them.

I'm not sure the kaboom grip is even available to purchase separately, I don't recall seeing it in the price lists.

Grays online system shows zero available, and has done since the zone grips were added to the range. I enquired as to the whereabouts of our grips a couple of weeks back and was told no stock had arrived yet. Not sure where others are sourcing theirs from if that is the case.

Along with Legend, the 3 grips seniorplayer has mentioned are the only ones listed as being available, no sign of Kaboom or X181 style grips.

Probably one of the worse grip, comes with CA bats

Sorry for digging up an old topic.

Currently loving the kookaburra xtreme grips. All white of course (classy).




Can someone please help me. I am stuck between this grip and a octopus grip. I just want to know out of the two which grips better for bottom hand as the kookaburra is spiral for bottom hand.

Octopus grips ruin gloves and tear very easily in my experience I went through 2 in one week once. I currently have a kookaburra grip on my bat which seems to be good giving me good control over the bat no twisting in my hands.

Octopus grips stick to gloves particularly on warm days and as stated can tear gloves matrix pattern is my preference for bottom hand grip as it seems to help when playing with soft hands.

Anyone had experience of the Puma 2014 grips? They come in three colourways and look pretty effective.

Had a 2013 grip, don't know if they're the same but it was very very thin and I felt everything through the handle.
