The big one is rotation — the whole handle turning in your hands on impact. The small one is slip — glove leather sliding a millimetre or two across the rubber surface. Most grips are built to fix one of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGravity Pro\u003c\/strong\u003e addresses both at once, because it has two textures layered on top of each other. Raised helical ribs wrap the handle at an angle, giving your hands something substantial to brace against. And every one of those ribs is studded with rows of micro-pins — hundreds of tiny raised points that bite into glove leather at a scale the ribs alone can't reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBulletproof Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-torque helical ribs:\u003c\/strong\u003e the ribs run diagonally rather than straight, so they sit across the direction a handle actually rotates instead of running parallel to it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicro-pin surface bite:\u003c\/strong\u003e rows of raised pins along every rib grip the leather itself, adding fine-scale friction on top of the coarse-scale bracing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeep spiral drainage grooves:\u003c\/strong\u003e the continuous channels between ribs spiral the full length of the handle, giving sweat a clear path out rather than letting it pool under your palms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDense rubber matrix:\u003c\/strong\u003e absorbs heavy impact forces and keeps sting out of your bottom hand on shots off the toe or edge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTextured centre collar:\u003c\/strong\u003e a knurled band between the gripped zones marks your hand position cleanly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour colourways:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black, White, Blue and Pink.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cblockquote\u003e$11.99.

They are different problems and they want different features. A tall rib braces well but has relatively little surface area actually touching your glove. A fine pimpled texture maximises contact but flattens under load and offers nothing to brace against. Putting pins on top of ribs means neither has to compromise — the ribs carry the rotational load while the pins handle the surface grip. It is the same logic as tread blocks with siping cut into them on a car tyre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitting and Replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoll onto a grip cone, slide over the handle, work it down evenly — under a minute once you've done it twice. The micro-pins wear before the ribs do, so if the grip starts feeling smooth even though the ribs still look intact, it is time to replace. For a player batting twice a week, usually every three to four months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBatters who want both rotational control and surface bite without choosing between them, players who sweat heavily, anyone who has felt their gloves creep on the handle during a long innings, and juniors moving up to a senior handle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MCG Sports","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":53225040347416,"sku":"MCG-GRAVPRO-BLK","price":11.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White","offer_id":53225040380184,"sku":"MCG-GRAVPRO-WHT","price":11.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue","offer_id":53225040412952,"sku":"MCG-GRAVPRO-BLU","price":11.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pink","offer_id":53225040445720,"sku":"MCG-GRAVPRO-PNK","price":11.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/9028\/1496\/files\/27_69ea303a-028b-4fc6-a200-efa450ce3353.png?v=1794285104","url":"https:\/\/mcgsports.com.au\/products\/gravity-pro-cricket-bat-grip","provider":"MCG Sports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
