Women GRIPS

[Sophiagymnast13]

I just finished Xcel gold and I’m going to Xcel platinum/diamond and I need grips,I’ve tried a few different grips in the past but I really don’t like them,I got some I’m November but they were too small which grips do I need? these are the grips I tried, but I got the biggest size and they were still too small.

When you say "too small," what exactly do you mean? Do you mean you can't open your hand all the way, or the finger holes are too small, or what?

The finger holes are deliberately designed small, and you can use sand paper to widen them. As far as length, you don't necessarily need the full range of motion in your wrist, you just have to be able to get the dowel over the bar with the rest of the grip still in contact with your hand.

They weren’t long enough That’s just what my coach said

Ten o has really good ones. Those grips that you tried have sizes geared towards smaller gymnasts. Have you asked your coach what they recommend?
