FAQs

Is the Grays UB4 suitable for beginners?

Yes, its balanced profile makes it an excellent choice for players moving from a beginner to an intermediate level who are focused on skill development.

What does the Ultrabow profile do?

The Ultrabow profile features a specific bow shape that helps players learn the mechanics of striking, trapping, and basic ball carrying.

Can this stick be used on all pitch types?

It is designed for standard field hockey synthetic pitches. Using it on concrete or rough asphalt will significantly reduce its lifespan.

How do I choose the right length for this stick?

The length should generally reach the top of your hip bone when standing upright. The UB4 is available in various sizes to accommodate different player heights.

Is the head shape good for 3D skills?

Yes, the Micro head shape is specifically chosen to assist with technical 3D skills and tighter control.

Troubleshooting

Excessive vibration during ball impact

Apply a high-quality shock-absorbing hockey overgrip to the handle.

Head shows signs of premature wear

Ensure you are using the stick on appropriate pitch surfaces and avoid striking fixed metal objects or concrete.

Stick feels slippery in wet conditions

Replace the existing grip and consider using a grip-enhancing resin or spray if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Grays UB4, store the stick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, which can compromise the composite integrity. Always inspect the head of the stick after each session for cracks or excessive wear, especially if playing on abrasive synthetic turf surfaces. When cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to remove grit and mud; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the patterned decals. The UB4 is compatible with standard hockey grips; it is recommended to replace your overgrip periodically to maintain optimal traction and vibration dampening.
