Gryphon G26 Range Comparison

Which Gryphon G26 Stick Suits You?

Beginners and Juniors: Lazer G26 (£45)

If you're new to hockey, or you're buying for a younger player just getting started, the Lazer G26 is your starting point. At £45 (down from £50), it's the most accessible stick in the range and comes in two colourways: Pink and Navy. It gives juniors a properly branded stick without a big financial commitment, which is exactly what you want when a player is still finding their feet.

Improvers: Flow PRO21 G26 (£54)

A step up in feel and performance, the Gryphon Flow PRO21 G26 at £54 (was £60) is well suited to players who've moved past the beginner stage and want something that will keep pace with their improving skills. It's a sensible upgrade for a junior playing regular school or club hockey, or an adult who picked up the game recently and is starting to take it more seriously.

Developing Club Players: Cobra Pro 25 G26 (£72)

The Cobra Pro 25 G26 sits at £72 (was £80) and comes in two colour options: Jade and Blue. This is a popular price bracket for players joining their first adult club team or moving into junior county squads. You're getting a PRO25 bow profile, which gives a meaningful amount of bow for 3D skills and aerial work without being too demanding for less experienced hands.

Regular Club Players: Solo PRO25 G26 (£90) and Atomic PRO25 G26 (£117)

These two models are the heart of the range for the everyday club player. The Gryphon Solo PRO25 G26 at £90 (was £100) offers solid all-round performance for someone playing twice a week and wanting reliability above all else. Step up to the Gryphon Atomic PRO25 G26 at £117 (was £130) if you're a committed club player who trains consistently and wants noticeably more feedback and a livelier feel through the ball. Both are PRO25 bow, making them versatile across positions.

Mid-Range Club Sticks: Elan G26 (£144) and Diablo G26 (£171)

Here's where Gryphon introduces a bow choice, which is worth thinking about carefully. The DII bow is designed for players who drag-flick or want a higher, later bow position for aerial passes. The PRO25 remains the more neutral, multi-purpose option. Both the Elan and Diablo families are offered at the same price point across both bow profiles, so the decision is purely about your game.

At £144 (was £160), the Gryphon Elan DII G26 and Gryphon Elan PRO25 G26 are a strong choice for players competing in upper club leagues who've outgrown the entry and mid-tier options. The Gryphon Diablo DII G26 and Gryphon Diablo PRO25 G26 at £171 (was £190) add another level of quality and are the pick for stronger, more physical club players who want a stick with real presence.

Advanced Club: Striker G26 (£225)

The Striker family opens up the widest bow choice in the range. The Gryphon Striker Samurai G26 adds the Samurai bow option alongside the familiar DII and PRO25 variants, all at £225 (was £250). Players at this level generally know what bow suits their game. If you're not sure, the PRO25 is the safest all-round option; the DII suits specialists and drag-flickers; the Samurai is for players who want something a touch more distinctive in how it handles aerial and 3D play.

Premier Club and County: Bluesteel G26 (£270)

The Bluesteel range, at £270 (was £300), is aimed at players who are competing at the top end of their club structure or county level. Again, all three bow options are available: Samurai, DII, and PRO25. Saving £30 off the original price makes this an even more attractive proposition for serious players who might previously have been stretching to reach this tier.

Elite Club: Tour G26 (£315)

The Tour G26 is the flagship of the range and comes in the greatest variety of options: Ronin, Samurai, DII, T-Bone, and PRO25, all at £315 (was £350). This is the stick for players who train seriously and compete at the highest club or representative level. The T-Bone and Ronin bow variants are particularly specialist options that will appeal to players with strong technical preferences. At £35 off RRP across the board, the Tour range is landing at a genuinely attractive price for elite kit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the bow profile actually mean, and which should I pick?

The bow refers to the curve along the shaft of the stick. A PRO25 bow is a versatile, mid-positioned curve that suits most positions and styles. The DII bow has its peak curve positioned later and higher, favouring drag-flickers and players who rely heavily on aerials. The Samurai, T-Bone and Ronin bows are further specialist profiles at the top of the range, suited to experienced players with well-defined technical preferences.

Is the Gryphon G26 range suitable for juniors?

Yes, the Lazer G26 and Flow PRO21 G26 are both well suited to junior players. They offer good quality at an accessible price, making them ideal for school and club hockey. The wider range also means there's a natural upgrade path as a junior's game develops, all within the same Gryphon G26 family.

Are all the sticks genuinely on offer, or are these normal prices?

Every stick in the Gryphon G26 2026/27 range is currently on offer at Cricket-Hockey.com. Each model is reduced from its standard price, with savings of £5 at the entry level up to £35 on the Tour range. These are real reductions on the standard selling prices, available right now while stock lasts.

I play in multiple positions. Which bow is the most flexible?

The PRO25 bow is consistently the most versatile option across the range. It's well balanced for hitting, pushing, receiving, and general 3D play without being heavily biased towards any one skill. If you play across midfield and defence, or simply aren't sure which specialist bow to choose, the PRO25 models are the reliable, all-position starting point.
