Dowel Grips

[gymbaby12]

Hi. I really need new grips and I went on ten.0 to look for some. I am a level 4 USAG level 5 next year, and i was wondering if dowel grips would be good for me. I do glides, glide and long hang kips, front hips, back hips, mill circles, and tap swings. Would dowel grips be good for me? How long do they last and are they good to compete level 4 in? Please reply and thank you!

no. you don't need dowel grips. in fact, they could hinder your learning. a pair of basic grips will work fine.

and always check with your coach. he/she knows your development and will tell you when its time to get in to dowels.
