What do you all think about wearing Link Removed 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...
I lost one of my Link Removed 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.
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...
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...
So I've been wearing Link Removed 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...
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...
Well I was finally able to get a pair. I almost had to as I train quite a bit harder now and do a lot of tumbling and I just can't do it with my wrists being so bad. Anyways to anyone who had them a couple questions. do you use the plastic inserts or not? Or do you kind of break them in first...
For those of you that have used wrist supports, which do you recommend-- Tiger Paws or Golden Hands? I am looking to get some and am not sure which one is better. :confused:
Link Removed
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!

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...
Just wondering if anyone uses Link Removed. 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...
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...
