- This disclosure relates to implementations of athletic grips.
- Tape grips are handmade grips made with athletic tape that are used by gymnasts, acrobats, weight lighters, etc. to improve their grip when engaging with a bar, ring, etc. and/or to reduce blisters on their hands when engaging such devices. These handmade tape grips can be an inexpensive alternative to higher end grips that are more durable and made of more expensive material such as leather. Furthermore, handmade tape grips typically have a shorter break-in time than grips made of less flexible material such as leather. Thus, tape grips may be more suitable for novice users as they transition to more durable grips made of more expensive material such as leather. Unlike the more durable grips made of more expensive material such as leather, handmade tape grips typically do not include a dowel embedded in the grip near the top of the palm area to help improve the user's grip.
- The typical
handmade grip 100 is made by folding thesticky side 102 of afirst strip 105 of athletic tape in half lengthwise such that the sticky-side 102 is no longer exposed, as shown inFIG. 1A . The first strip of athletic tape typically is about two times the length of the user's palm. As shown inFIG. 1B , the athletic tape then is bent in half in such a manner that aloop 107 is formed by the two halves at a top end and, the outer edge of the two halves meet for the rest of the length of the two halves. Asecond strip 125 of athletic tape then is used to secure the two halves of the first strip of tape, leaving theloop 107 exposed, as shown inFIG. 1C . Theloop 107 now can be inserted on one of the user's finger with the bottom end extending along the user's palm and then athird strip 135 of tape is used to secure the end of the grip to the user's wrist, as shown inFIG. 1D - Handmade tape grips are disposable and the user typically makes a grip each time a grip is needed.
