Indoor hockey sticks – models from our range for the 2026/27 season: lengths, bow and who they suit

This is a follow-up to the post Indoor stick – how it differs from an outdoor stick and how to choose one. That post explains how an indoor stick differs from an outdoor stick, why it tends to be lighter and slimmer, and which models suit each level of play. Here we go down to the full list: the indoor hockey sticks in our range for the 2026/27 season are seventeen models from four brands labelled on their product pages as indoor only, from wooden starter sticks to indoor versions of flagship series, in lengths from 34 to 37.5 inches and at prices from PLN 189 to PLN 1,185. We show how to read their product pages, how the bow profiles differ, what the laminate composition tells you and which model suits whom according to the manufacturer’s description.

The technical data comes from the product pages in our shop as of October 2026, and the prices from product pages checked on 3 November 2026. Check the product page for current prices, colours and available lengths, because the stock of variants can change.

The indoor season starts in November

Autumn is the moment Polish hockey moves from grass to the hall, and this year it comes with a new edition of the FIH indoor rules, in force at international level from 1 November 2026. The dates of indoor competitions are set by the Polish Field Hockey Association, and when the new rules apply in a given league is decided by the regulations of that competition. What the new edition changes and where to look for the fixture list, we described in the post on the 2026/27 indoor season. Here we stay with equipment: for a field player, the start of the indoor season is above all a question of whether they have an indoor stick and whether that stick suits their game.

How to read an indoor stick’s product page

Every stick in our shop has a few fixed fields on its product page. For an indoor stick, five of them decide whether a model is in the running at all, before you start comparing descriptions.

• Variant – “Indoor” means a stick described by the manufacturer as an indoor stick. The seventeen models in this post carry only that label. Sticks labelled in our data as both “Indoor” and “Outdoor” form a separate group; we cover them in the final part of the text.
• Length – given in inches. The indoor-only sticks in our range come in lengths of 34, 35, 36.5 and 37.5 inches.
• Composition – wood, or a composite with a stated share of carbon fibre. Gryphon gives it as a Carbon Quotient, and Ritual and TK, in composite models, as percentages of carbon, fibreglass and aramid, or as wood in wooden models. For the three Grays sticks the product page does not state the composition, so we do not compare them in this respect.
• Profile and bow type – the manufacturer’s profile name (Indoor DII, Pro Indoor, XLB, LB, ultra-low bow, Dynabow, Jumbow) and, where the product page gives them, the bow depth in millimetres and the distance of the peak from the head.
• Weight – only Gryphon states the weight of its composite indoor sticks: around 480 g in the 36.5-inch length and 490 g in the 37.5-inch length, with a tolerance of plus or minus 10 g; the wooden Taboo XLB Indoor Wood G26 has no weight on its product page. The other manufacturers do not give weight on their product pages, so we do not list it in the table.

Then there is the “Level” field, in which the manufacturer itself says who the stick was designed for: from “beginner / junior” to “elite / performance (indoor)”. We treat it as the manufacturer’s guidance, not as our ranking.

Indoor stick lengths in our range

The length of an indoor stick is chosen the same way as an outdoor stick, by the player’s height and stance, not by the form of the game. How to measure and which lengths suit children and adults, we described in a separate post on choosing stick length. What matters here is which lengths are available at all among indoor sticks.

• 34 and 35 inches – Grays DB1Xi Dynabow Junior (both lengths) and Ritual Precision 10 Indoor Jr (35 inches only). These are the only two indoor-only sticks in junior lengths. We compared them in detail in the post on an indoor stick for a child, so here we only list them.
• 36.5 inches only – Gryphon Cobra Pro Indoor G26 and Gryphon Elan Pro Indoor G26. If you need 37.5 inches, these two models are out.
• 36.5 and 37.5 inches – the remaining thirteen models: Grays DB1Xi Dynabow, Grays JB6GXi Jumbow Indoor, Gryphon Bluesteel DII Indoor G26, Gryphon Striker DII Indoor G26, Gryphon Taboo XLB Indoor Wood G26, Gryphon Tour DII Indoor G26, Ritual Precision 10 Indoor, Ritual Precision 25 Max Indoor, Ritual Precision 50 Max Indoor, TK P1 XLB Indoor, TK P3 XLB Indoor, TK P4 LB Indoor and TK W2 LB Indoor.

There is no 38.5-inch length among the indoor-only sticks in our data. A player who uses 38.5 inches on grass chooses indoors between 37.5 inches and one of the sticks labelled for both forms of the game, which we describe below.

Bow: the four brands’ profiles

Indoors the ball is carried right at the floor, it must not be hit with a backswing, and it may be raised only for a shot at goal. Manufacturers therefore design indoor bow profiles with ball control at the floor and a quick push or flick from a short movement in mind. What a bow actually is and how to read the low, mid and standard labels is explained in a separate post on stick bow. Each of the four brands in our range describes its indoor profiles under its own names.

Gryphon: Indoor DII and Pro Indoor

In the composite models of its G26 indoor line Gryphon uses two profiles, and the wooden Taboo has a third. Indoor DII is the indoor version of the extreme low Deuce II bow; the manufacturer describes it as Indoor Extra Low Bow and uses it in the Tour DII Indoor, Bluesteel DII Indoor and Striker DII Indoor, the sticks for advanced and performance indoor players focused on technical play in tight spaces; the manufacturer also mentions lifting the ball for them, which indoors is permitted only for a shot at goal. Pro Indoor is an indoor low profile which, according to the product page, keeps the ball flat when carrying and passing; it appears in the Cobra Pro Indoor and Elan Pro Indoor. The wooden Taboo XLB Indoor Wood has the XLB profile, Extra Low Bow. Gryphon does not give bow depth in millimetres on its indoor stick pages, so we compare these profiles only by name and description.

TK: Xtreme Late Bow and Late Bow

TK gives numbers. The Xtreme Late Bow profile in the P1 XLB Indoor and P3 XLB Indoor has a bow 25 mm deep positioned 200 mm from the head; the manufacturer describes it as tight ball control at the boards and in play in small spaces. The Late Bow profile in the P4 LB Indoor and W2 LB Indoor has a depth of 24 mm at 220 mm from the head, which the product page calls the classic bow position for a reliable pass and reception. All four TK sticks have a 380 mm balance point.

Ritual: ultra-low bow 24 mm

The whole indoor Precision line has an ultra-low bow with a 24 mm profile, which the manufacturer describes as geared towards ball control. For the Precision 25 Max Indoor and Precision 50 Max Indoor the product page additionally gives a face angle of 40 degrees, and for the 50 Max it describes the bow as ultra-low / extreme low bow for control and lifts. The Precision 10 Indoor and its junior version have the same 24 mm profile in a construction with a low carbon content.

Grays: Dynabow and Jumbow

Grays describes its profiles by family name. Dynabow in the DB1Xi Dynabow and DB1Xi Dynabow Junior is, according to the product page, an all-round profile combined with a small micro head for sharp dribbling and quick changes of direction. Jumbow GX in the JB6GXi Jumbow Indoor is a more powerful profile, optimised according to the manufacturer for accurate drag flicks and quick passes, with a large maxi head. Grays does not give bow depth or bow position on these product pages.

Composition: wood, glass and carbon

The share of carbon fibre decides how stiff a stick is. In the descriptions of their series, manufacturers link a higher carbon content with the ball leaving the stick faster on a pass and a stronger flick, and a lower carbon content with more fibreglass with a stick more forgiving of an imprecise reception, which they point out for starter models. How much carbon you really need and what fibreglass and aramid do is explained in a separate post on stick materials. Among the indoor-only sticks in our range, composition falls into four groups.

• Wood – Gryphon Taboo XLB Indoor Wood G26 (wooden core, described on the product page as durable and for training) and TK W2 LB Indoor (100% mulberry wood reinforced with aramid and fibreglass, no carbon). The manufacturers describe them as sticks with the classic feel of wood, for a first indoor season and for a calm pass at the boards.
• Low carbon content – Gryphon Cobra Pro Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 40), TK P4 LB Indoor (30% carbon, 65% fibreglass, 5% aramid), Ritual Precision 10 Indoor and Precision 10 Indoor Jr (the product page speaks of a low carbon content, entry level) and Ritual Precision 25 Max Indoor (around 25% carbon with a premium core from Japan).
• Middle of the scale – Gryphon Elan Pro Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 70), TK P3 XLB Indoor (50% carbon, 45% fibreglass, 5% aramid) and Ritual Precision 50 Max Indoor (50% carbon, 45% fibreglass, 5% aramid, premium core from Japan).
• High carbon content – TK P1 XLB Indoor (80% Japanese carbon, 15% fibreglass, 5% aramid), Gryphon Striker DII Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 90), Gryphon Bluesteel DII Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 95) and Gryphon Tour DII Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 100).

Gryphon’s Carbon Quotient and the carbon percentages in Ritual and TK descriptions are two different ways of writing it and we do not set them against each other directly. Within one brand the number tells you where a model sits in the hierarchy: at Gryphon from the Cobra (40) to the Tour (100), at TK from the P4 (30%) to the P1 (80%), at Ritual from the Precision 10 to the Precision 50. The three Grays sticks have no composition on their product pages; the manufacturer describes them as composite sticks of the Xi generation.

Seventeen indoor sticks in one table

The comparison covers all the sticks labelled in our data as indoor only. The order in the table follows price, not a rating. Composition and level are given as the manufacturer wrote them on the product page.

Model	Lengths (inches)	Bow per product page	Composition per product page	Level per product page	Price (3 November 2026)

TK P1 XLB Indoor	36,5, 37,5	Xtreme Late Bow, 25 mm at 200 mm	80% carbon, 15% fibreglass, 5% aramid	not on product page	PLN 866
Gryphon Tour DII Indoor G26	36,5, 37,5	Indoor DII	Carbon Quotient 100	Elite / competitive (indoor)	PLN 1,185

Price does not follow carbon content directly. The wooden Gryphon Taboo XLB Indoor Wood G26 costs the same as the Ritual Precision 50 Max Indoor with 50% carbon, and the carbon-free TK W2 LB Indoor is more expensive than the Gryphon Elan Pro Indoor G26 with Carbon Quotient 70. So compare models within your needs, not by price alone.

Which stick for whom: four groups according to manufacturers’ descriptions

Manufacturers write on their product pages who they designed each model for. We have gathered these pointers into four groups. This is not a ranking: each group contains sticks of different composition, profile and price, and the choice is decided by trying them with a ball on the floor.

First season indoors

Gryphon aims the Taboo XLB Indoor Wood G26 at beginners and at clubs putting together training equipment for the indoor season, for children, teenagers and adults taking their first steps before moving on to composite models; at PLN 776, however, it is a more expensive model than entry-level composites such as the Cobra Pro Indoor at PLN 259. The Gryphon Cobra Pro Indoor G26 is, according to the product page, the indoor version of the Cobra for beginner indoor players, juniors and people playing recreationally in winter; the manufacturer describes it as its most affordable branded indoor stick. The Ritual Precision 10 Indoor is the entry model of the indoor Precision line, for those starting to play indoors and for juniors moving to a full-size indoor stick; according to the description, the low carbon content forgives technical errors while learning to carry the ball on a hard surface. TK intends the W2 LB Indoor for players who want a traditional wooden stick for play at the boards and a calm pass, and the P4 LB Indoor for developing indoor players: according to the product page it has enough carbon to respond and enough fibreglass to forgive.

Child and junior

Two sticks come in junior lengths. The Grays DB1Xi Dynabow Junior (34 and 35 inches) is, according to the product page, the junior version of the composite Xi-generation indoor stick, with the all-round Dynabow profile and a small head that supports dribbling and quick changes of direction. The Ritual Precision 10 Indoor Jr (35 inches) is shorter and lighter than the senior model and suited to the height and strength of a young player starting indoor hockey. A child who already fits 36.5 inches chooses from the group above; for the Gryphon Taboo XLB Indoor Wood G26 and Ritual Precision 10 Indoor the product page explicitly mentions learning and first steps, and for the TK W2 LB Indoor traditional play at the boards.

Regular league player

Ritual aims the Precision 25 Max Indoor at indoor players playing regularly in a league who want a stronger and more precise stick than the entry model but do not yet need the stiffness of the Precision 50. The Gryphon Elan Pro Indoor G26 is, according to the product page, the indoor version of the Elan for advanced and intermediate players who want a clear energy return without the price of top models; the manufacturer points to a midfielder or forward who values control and passing. The TK P3 XLB Indoor is described as a stick for players developing their indoor game, with control at the boards and play close to the ball: according to the product page, the carbon gives stiffness and feel while the fibreglass forgives errors. Grays describes the DB1Xi Dynabow, with its all-round profile and small head, as a stick for a confident reception, pass and beating an opponent under pressure.

Advanced and performance player

Gryphon has three sticks here with the Indoor DII profile. The manufacturer describes the Striker DII Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 90) as a performance indoor stick for forwards and midfielders who value dribbling, quick passing and lifting the ball for a shot at goal; according to the product page, the high carbon content translates into passing power, meaning the push, because indoors the ball must not be hit. The Bluesteel DII Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 95) is, in the manufacturer’s view, the choice for someone who wants an energy return close to the top tier without reaching for the most expensive Tour. The Tour DII Indoor G26 (Carbon Quotient 100) is the indoor version of the flagship Tour, for elite players playing indoors. The Ritual Precision 50 Max Indoor is the top model of the indoor Precision line, according to the product page for advanced indoor players who want passing precision, ball control on the floor and confident lifts at goal; the page also lists a Triple-Layer Handle System with a gel layer and vibration-damping EVA foam. TK aims the P1 XLB Indoor, with 80% Japanese carbon, at indoor players who play fast, close to the ball and with rebounds off the boards. The Grays JB6GXi Jumbow Indoor, with its powerful Jumbow GX profile and large head, is described as a choice for drag flickers and all-round players.

Sticks labelled for indoor and outdoor

Apart from the seventeen indoor-only sticks, our data contains twenty-three models labelled as both “Indoor” and “Outdoor”. The manufacturer did not build them as indoor sticks. Nine senior Gryphon sticks are, according to their product pages, G26 models with DII Bow and Pro25 Bow profiles weighing around 515–535 g; the tenth is the junior Tour Pro-J with the Pro profile in lengths of 34.5 and 35.5 inches, with no weight on its product page. The Ritual sticks are the Velocity, Ultra, Specialist and Finesse lines with a 24 mm bow, with no weight on their product pages apart from the Velocity 95. The label for both forms of the game means that, according to our data, such a stick can go into the hall, but its product page also describes outdoor play: hits, drag flicks from the top of the circle, aerials. Before buying such a stick for indoor play, compare it in your hands with the same brand’s indoor stick of the same length; Gryphon’s product pages give around 480–490 g for its composite indoor sticks against around 515–535 g for the senior dual-use models, while the other brands give no weight on their product pages.

• Gryphon G26 (10 models) – Atomic DII, Bluesteel Pro25, Cobra DII, Diablo DII, Elan DII, Solo DII, Striker Pro25, Tour DII (37.5 and 38.5 inches), Tour Pro25 (36.5, 37.5 and 38.5 inches) and the junior Tour Pro-J (34.5 and 35.5 inches). The rest in lengths of 36.5 and 37.5 inches.
• Ritual Velocity (5 models) – Velocity 25 (32 and 34 inches), Velocity 45 (34 inches), Velocity 75 (37.5 inches), Velocity 95 (36.5 and 37.5 inches), Velocity Revolution (37.5 inches). The Velocity 25 description explicitly mentions players starting to play on grass and indoors.
• Ritual Ultra (3 models) – Ultra 55 (36.5 inches), Ultra 75 (36.5 and 37.5 inches), Ultra Revolution (37.5 inches), with an extreme late bow positioned at 200 mm.
• Ritual Specialist (4 models) – Specialist 55 (36.5 and 37.5 inches), Specialist 75 (36.5 inches), Specialist 95 (36.5 and 37.5 inches), Specialist Revolution (37.5 inches), designed according to the manufacturer around the drag flick.
• Ritual Finesse 55 – 37.5 inches, a lighter variant with a thinner shaft.

We do not give prices for these models in this post, because its subject is indoor sticks. If you are looking for one stick for grass and indoors at once, check the product page of the specific model and ask your coach whether such a stick makes sense in the indoor competition you play in, given your style of play.

What else is useful with an indoor stick

An indoor stick works in different conditions from an outdoor stick: the head scrapes the floor at every reception, and in a crowded hall the left hand is often close to the floor and opponents’ sticks. Three things are worth checking together with the stick.

• Grip – a new stick has a factory grip, but after switching to a slimmer indoor shaft the hold may call for a thicker or thinner grip. Ritual lists a textured Super Soft grip for the Precision 25 Max Indoor and Precision 50 Max Indoor. Grips of various thicknesses can be found in the category hockey stick grips.
• Indoor glove – protects the left hand when carrying low and when playing at the boards. Models labelled for indoor play, including the Gryphon Indoor Blockr and the Ritual Vapor series gloves, are in the category indoor and outdoor hockey gloves.
• Tape on the head – protects the lacquer on the lower part of the head from wear against the floor. Why it is applied and how to do it in line with the rules, we described in the post on tape on the head of an indoor stick.

How to choose an indoor stick in four steps

• Step 1: length. 34 or 35 inches means the Grays DB1Xi Dynabow Junior and Ritual Precision 10 Indoor Jr. Of the fifteen senior models, all come in 36.5 inches, and all except the Gryphon Cobra Pro Indoor G26 and Elan Pro Indoor G26 come in 37.5 inches.
• Step 2: level per product page. First season: wood, Cobra Pro Indoor, Precision 10 Indoor, TK P4 LB Indoor. Regular league: Precision 25 Max Indoor, Elan Pro Indoor, TK P3 XLB Indoor, DB1Xi Dynabow. Performance: Striker, Bluesteel and Tour DII Indoor, Precision 50 Max Indoor, TK P1 XLB Indoor, JB6GXi Jumbow Indoor.
• Step 3: profile. Extreme low (Indoor DII, XLB, Ritual’s extreme low bow) for technical play and lifting the ball for a shot at goal; indoor low or Late Bow for flat carrying and passing; Dynabow as an all-round profile and Jumbow GX for the drag flick according to Grays.
• Step 4: try it. Take the stick in your hand with the grip you use and check the hold in the position for carrying the ball at the floor. In our showroom in Żerniki you can compare several models side by side.

Among the seventeen indoor sticks, prices start at PLN 189 for the junior Grays DB1Xi Dynabow Junior and PLN 241 for the senior Grays DB1Xi Dynabow (PLN 259 for the Gryphon Cobra Pro Indoor G26). If you are torn between two models or lengths, write to us with the player’s position, level of competition and height. All the models from the table and the sticks labelled for both forms of the game can be found in the category indoor and outdoor hockey sticks.
