grips

This summer DD will be training USAG level 7 and needs new grips. Currently, she's using Ginnasta USA velcros for level 6. Everybody at her gym uses English Bulldog double buckle. Sho uld I get the same ones she has, bulldog, or try something else? Any grip suggestions/preferences? TIA

This is my first post. I'm just wondering if these grips are too big. i am unable to ask my coach if they are the right size due to different circumstances. All help appreciated

So I've had a pair of Blue 10.0 Grips for 2 1/2 years I think. I love them, they're super broken in, and I'm used to them. I think they are too small, but I'm hesitant to switch because bigger ones feel different. Thoughts?

Disclaimer - we are in Australia so the choices are limited!! We have been asked to get proper grips now they are starting to do giants. Coach prefers buckle but doesn't mind which type. DD not quite 10YO weighs 32Kg is L5 training L6/7 (so L4 in the USA - we are around one level below) DD...

Anyone have any suggestions to relieve the burning hands feeling caused by extended time on bars? my DD does wear grips. She is also older and taller... 5'3 at 13 so heavier than the average little gymmies. It sounds friction related. No rips... Just intense burning feeling. Can she use...

Hi- My older daughter (9) has been getting really bad blisters from the bars. At her level, they're not allowed to wear grips yet. We've got some good treatment for when she gets them but they don't heal in time for the next class and hurt and open up again. Is there anything else we can cover...

My youngest DD finally needs grips. She is 10; but very tall. She doesn't have tiny hands. There is an awesome deal for kids who went to Flip Fest with American Gymnast grips (50% off). My other two have never used this brand. It looks like my DD would be a size 3, which seems crazy since that...

Hello! I'm new on here and was just hoping to get a question answered. About a month ago my velcro grips were missing from my grip bag and so I replaced them with new reinsport buckle grips and it has been a nightmare using them. I feel like I'm slipping off on everything I do. My coaches and I...

About two years ago, I purchased Ginnasta velcro grips with dowels (narrow width I think) and have been using them ever since. From the beginning they weren't great, I couldn't get a great grip on the bar and I would slip off the bar doing simple things. I thought I was just breaking them in...

On Men's high bar, every so often someone's grip locks up, and often they break their wrist or worse. It seems to happen on eagle giants most. Why does this happen? What can be done to avoid it?

I feel like this has been asked but when I searched it seemed most of the athletes were girls. I have an 8 year old level 6 that needs new grips. His coach made his first pair last year but is no longer making them. His hands are measuring 5 1/8 inches, which appears to be quite small for even...

I recently ordered a pair of ginnasta Usa high bar grips most of the reason being because I was on a budget. I was wondering did I get my moneys worth for these grips or are they going to become trash within the next couple of months. If I didn't what brand is the best for Men high bar for...

I am so proud of this kid...she has worked so hard. When I walked in to pick her up tonight, I could see her way in the back with HC and practice was clearly over. Then she came running off the mats BEAMING and waving a small pink piece of paper containing the specifics for me to order. I'm not...

My fingers always slide out of my grips. I've tried everything, rubber bands hurt and the pit foam always gets lost or falls out. Any suggestions?

I seem to recall that there was a pic posted of how grips are supposed to fit. I searched, but cannot find it. Can anyone help me find it? Other dumb questions from a clueless mom on behalf of a shy gymmie who doesn't want to ask the coach: 1. Do the buckles go near the thumb and the...

So DS has been using high bar grips from a new company and we're not having good luck. I think they lack quality control. The first pair he had, two of the tines for the buckles broke off in the first couple weeks. Now he just started using a new pair, and the leather of the strap snapped in...

I'm 16 years old and I'm average height, which means I'm a tall gymnast. I have been using grips for a year and love them. I am currently a size 4. I was wondering if anyone has found any good grips in that size or bigger or if anyone has custom ordered any bigger then size 4 and if so where from?

My daughter needs new grips. She's been using hot shot grips for years now (leather cuff since level 7) and liking them, but her coach seems to think she needs something else for her next pair. DD is 5'2" and training level 9 -- aka lots of giants and shoot overs. Any recommendations on the...

Wondering where you can get some good grips. My dd is going into lvl 4. So just need some guidance.

Which do you prefer and why ?
