The New Grays GX7000 Jumbow

By Francine Hampton


Your Grays GX7000 Jumbow is about to get a facelift! Usually, Grays do very little to change the stick designs by year to year. In fairness, there are always a few junior models that get changed up a bit. But generally all they do is add a mold or perhaps two. And sometimes they will expand a range. Last year they added a fresh elite level range using a whole new design. This season, this new range is increasing as well. Typically, they are aware of their particularly popular models plus they realize what their hockey players prefer. That's why they stick to their styles over and over. Or that used to be the truth at the very least.

In a big shake up, Grays GX7000 Jumbow will not exist. The highest jumbow within the popular GX range will now be the GX5000. And from now on the GX7000 Probow is the only 7000 from the range. For many of us, this kind of amendment will likely not make a large amount of difference. In the range above, the exact same model is going to survive. It is utilizing the conventional jumbow mold that has been so continually popular amongst hockey players around the world.

In actual fact the only significant difference with the higher set is they use a specific structure. They use another type of layering method and also surface layers utilize a material referred to as graphene. It's a super strong and durable product which happens to be even more robust than the carbon which is traditionally used in hockey sticks. It's also really thin thus it will not add unnecessary pounds.

An extra sturdy design is great for hockey sticks. These items of specialized products endure a whole lot within a typical training session and they go through substantially more within a high level match. The force that goes in to striking a hard hockey ball and also the impact which comes from obtaining the ball is intense. Updating the actual GX7000 composition to something more sturdy and should, without question, be seen as a positive change. Not surprisingly there'll be some people who seem to make a complaint.

The GX7000 Prowbow will retain the typical components. The real difference with this particular style will be the shape of the toe. Grays are creating several designs using this style now. It is intended to offer outstanding control of the hockey ball and lots of hockey players appear to like this innovative form. Marginally different shaping can make a unexpectedly significant difference to help technique.

So even though GX7000 Jumbow will no longer be available, Grays customers are still able to find hockey stick options that are quite similar. One that can provide the same structure but will use a marginally different head shape. And another which will provide the exact same design, along with standard of components (the 7000 signifies the level of carbon), simply with an alternative layup which should be more durable and even more powerful.
