- Aero Space (Grass greens below 11 seconds and some synthetic greens)

WHY DO YOU USE AEROBOWLS? The feel of the Plain Grip is second to none. The smoothness that it provides on the surface of the bowl is fantastic for my unorthodox grip. The line of all the models are consistent and allow me to play a larger variety of shots! Not mention the endless range of colours that Aero provide, they are beyond classy on the green!
