Technology
Grays’ naming system is built to help players quickly identify the style of stick they need. The first part of the name tells you the bow family and playing profile, while the number indicates the performance tier within that family. In general, higher numbers represent more advanced, stiffer, and more performance-driven sticks, while lower numbers offer more forgiveness, comfort, and ease of use for developing players.
To improve durability and performance, Grays integrates several key design features into its composite matrices:
- Graphene: Used in premium models, Graphene strengthens the composite structure while helping to maintain a cushioned, responsive touch. It improves stiffness and energy transfer without making the stick feel overly harsh.
- Vertex Head Shape: A refined head profile designed to maximise surface area for ball-carrying while enhancing backhand hitting power. This gives players greater confidence when controlling the ball in tight spaces.
- Low Backhand Zone (LBZ): An extended, reinforced zone built to support cleaner and more powerful reverse-side strikes. This technology is especially valuable for players who rely on drag-flicking, aerials, and backhand distribution.
- Micro Head Shape: A steeper, more compact head design that supports quick hand speed and close control. It is ideal for players who need fast elimination skills and sharp technical movement.
- Maxi Head Shape: A larger head profile that increases the striking zone and provides a more forgiving surface for hitting and defensive clearances. This shape is especially useful for players who prioritise power and stability.
- Straight-Profile Geometry: Found in the GT range, this design provides a highly forgiving hitting plane that helps players develop clean fundamentals, accurate passing, and reliable stopping technique.
- Composite Layup Variation: Across the range, Grays adjusts the carbon and composite blend to suit different player levels, from elite stiffness and power to softer, more forgiving feel for developing players.
