    Tiger Paws for Vault

    What do you all think about wearing tiger paws for vault? My older dd is training Level 8 and working yurchenkos - her wrists are definitely feeling it. Our coaches are trying to work through it without going to tiger paws but I wanted to know how many of you use tiger paws for vault. If you...

    Tiger Paws Alternative

    I lost one of my Tiger Paws at the gym. I really don't want to spend $60 on a new pair especially when I know the other one is lost under a mat somewhere. Does anyone have experience with Lagurro's? They are half the price on ebay.

    Tiger Paws

    Hello :) When i started gymnastics, my wrist always hurt after being on them after a little bit of tumbling ( wouldn't really consider it tumbling, considering it was level three?) Now in level four, i often have to shake my wrist out after doing backhandsprings and such. I just got over a...

    Tiger Paws vs Golden Hands vs ?

    Hi everyone! I am looking into wrist supports because my right wrist gets really tender when I tumble (I'm a 22 year old average sized person, I shouldn't be surprised!) but I'm not sure what to buy. Of course I've heard of Tiger Paws and I know they do have the option of buying just one...

    Stupid Tiger Paws

    So I've been wearing Tiger Paws for about a year. I only have the form insert in, no plastic. I use to wait as long as I could into tumbling practice to put them on (usually only 2-3 handsprings later) but it got to the point where I was grimacing and my coach would ask where they were so I just...

    Tiger paws vs. any other brace? pros & cons

    So I am back after a summer hiatus from the gym, ready to hit the floor and hopefully do better than I was in the spring. Unfortunately, while biking to and from work this summer, I had a nasty wipeout, and managed to pull a muscle in my wrist. It's much better, I've been wearing a carpal tunnel...

    Tiger paws wrist supports

    Tiger Paws I am debating getting these for tumbling. I have one weak wrist due to a surgery i had a couple of years ago. Does anyone use these? Are they any good? Also should I use just one or are they better used as a pair? (I see they are only sold in pairs) Thanks for your input! Aerialriver

    Parents Hanging up the grips, but not the Tiger Paws

    Just wanted to let you know that I pulled dd from artistic girls' team. I know, crazy mom, right? They actually started the new team earlier this week. DD had decided to go back & give it a try. Practice went fine, the new coach is awesome, the girls that came w/ her are nice. DD had a decent...

    Tiger Paws

    Just wondering if anyone uses tiger paws. My dd has been having a lot of pain in one of her wrists. She didn't injure it, it isn't swollen or anything, but hurts a lot when she puts any pressure on it (esp. tumbling). I know this is fairly common for gymnasts - so just wondering what works...

    Tiger paws vs Golden Hands wrist supports?

    I'm actually posting this for a friend at our gym...her DD(level 7 training 8) has been to hand specialist & is in PT. She knows of the 'whole wrist supports leading to weak wrist' theory. But after much evaluation & discussion....wrist supports are what have been recommended for her DD. Now the...
