big fan of the ribbed spiral type grips but cant seem to get hold of any at the moment

One for you @FattusCattus

[Mattsky]

Just stumbled onto this site, which is probably known to some:

http://cricketbatgrips.com

They offer custom grips, with a minimum order of 3.
Various styles, and you can have up to 4 colours.
'Players Matrix' is the in grip for 2107. Who knew?
Free postage too.

Looks good.

Not sure I'm up for waiting 90 years for it to turn up though.

I won't bother correcting that gaff.

crappy picture, but these are the ones. They were the nuts.

My annual beg to see if anyone knows of anywhere still stocking these, the king of grips!

what grip tends to be the best to prolong the life of your gloves?

after reading parts of this forum - I see that the Octopus grips seem to be the worst (which is what I have always used since trying them lol)

I like the look of the salix hybrid ones

any recommendations?

[tom line]

I'd imagine chevrons would be best on gloves, and hybrids would probably be pretty good on them too, as you say octopus tend to shred the palms

[Kulli]

Might be biased but I'd say the Hybrid ones i posted above your post are by far the best all round grips, unfortunately they're not stocked many places.

43gramms a shade over 1.5ounces

Aero bat grips are lighter , the one i expermented with with was about 18gm , but now that i think about it , my handle was thin so i cut a little excess off ....but still, would have definitely been less than 25gm .

Heard of them a few years ago, $60 a go to see if they like it might discourage a few. Gimmick in my opinion.

Just had a look on their website as I'm still curious about these.
$69.95NZD and they only come in blue.

When they're half the price (preferably less...) and available in white I may try one!

[skip1973]

We have a nice Harbor Bridge in Sydney you might be interested in, not sure I can do it in white though.

Right then bat nerds....

Where is the best place to buy average thickness chevrons that are nice and soft?

I have GN (thick and a bit plasticy but fine as a single grip), getpaddedup ones (thin and plasticy but fine under another grip) and one from a second hand bat that was jusuuuust right as a top grip with another underneath (I like this one and would like more).

This mystery one is soft and sticky one with no mold lines inside... just a better all around quality grip and I'd like to buy some more if anyone has any recommendations?

Ta!

Salix chevron grips are top quality!
