Grips Help !!

[PCG123]

okay so ... I just started using grips in december And I broke them in And I was wondering is there anyway to get my grips to stop losening during a routine because By time im finished with the level 5 low bar they are very lose.. Any advice ??

Are they velcro grips? If so, you can just put an elastic over the velcro strap to hold it in place while you take your turn. It might still loosen some, but not enough to be bothersome. For your next grips, ask your coach if you might be able to look into buckle grips.

(ETA: If they are in fact buckle grips, just tighten them to the next hole--might be tough to do, but they won't loosen quite so much during the routine, and, they stretch out the more you use them)
