WAG Are my grips too small?

[emelineflips]

I just got new grips, and I think they may be too small. The finger holes definitely need sanding but I am worried that the grips themselves may be too short. Would anyone mind looking at the pictures below and giving your opinion? Thanks!

Keep in mind that they will stretch, a lot. If in doubt, ask your bar coach before you use them.

If I remember correctly, I was told you should not be able to open your hand all the way when you first get your grips. Ask your coach, though.

Look fine to me, get on a boys bar and break them in.

coachp, I didn't understand you reply, I must be missing something. Are you asking her to work on a men's high bar with dowels? Thanks.

Check with your coach, remeasure your hand and go to their website to double check their sizing chart, and yes, in my opinion from looking at the pictures, they definitely look too small. Good luck.

That is a wide leather grip, appearing short - check with your WAG coach. I would stay away from the advise given by the boys coach.


Best, SBG -

Yes , I put all my girls on the boys bar to do basic swinging the first day, if the grips are on the small side .

Ok, thanks. Just wanted to make sure, as I'd never heard of that before.
