Why Choose the Grays Hockey Dynabow?
The strategic engineering within the Dynabow's design is all centred around balance. Whilst consistently giving you the power you need for a strong hit or slap, the DB sticks maintain the touch required for intricate dribbling and passing. These clear advantages are a strong reason why many midfielders and versatile players who need to control every area of the pitch continue to put their trust in the iconic Dynabow - a fact proven on the international stage by some of the best players in the world. Elite athletes like Dutch midfielder Derck de Vilder - Olympic and European Gold Medalist, and GB & England’s Olympic Bronze Medalist Fiona Crackles trust the collection to perform at the highest level. Their recent success is a testament to the stick's ability to deliver both power and precision when it matters most. Boasting many game-changing attributes, the forgiving feel and superb energy transfer means you can confidently trap incoming balls, thread precise passes, and leave goalkeepers stranded with clinical shots.

What The Grays Hockey Players Think
Scotland Captain and Great Britain Olympic Bronze Medalist, Sarah Robertson has trusted the Dynabow for nearly a decade as she navigates through international tournaments, podium battles and domestic glory. Here’s a quick quote as to why she backs the DB:
“I have played with the Dynabow for over 5 years now and have never looked back. Being a versatile player across the front line and in midfield, I find the DB is the perfect choice for me to handle any situation I find myself on the pitch. The touch and control really stands out, and I love the thinner head shape that allows me to quickly use my 3D skills, and compliments my back hand hitting very well.”
