Yeah they are pretty hard to come by! but i never knew it was only one place that made them :
Be careful when you push the bigger end through the hole, it is pretty fiddly and they can snap if your too aggressive, I had one gymnast snap a whole pack and have to order a new one!! I did it for her after that!!
The story got even funnier today, my Mum called the factory which is 3miles from her house, the secretary knew who my Mum was (she walks her dogs around the village a lot) and they met up in a small cafe where the financial exchange took place. All very shady......
Lasswade thanks for the tip, I will have a go instead of letting DD try and fit them.

Got the thingies, they are great. DD tried to put the first one in without me there, it broke . I put the others on and they have worked really well, they also make the hole very comfortable.

I have never heard of those either though they seem like a great solution. As a mom of 2 gymnasts that were always very small(I am only 4'8'')we had this problem. A suggestion from a visiting coach helped in all their years in the sport. He took their shoes strings off their gym shoes and pulled one each for each hand through the holes of the grips and pulled the strings through the bottom over the wrist before velcroing closed. In that way their fingers never slipped out and they always felt secure
It is best to call them, they were so helpful and quick, from the US 011 44 01668 217 901 .
They have club sized packs of white ones that are not online, they cost about $20 for a large pack, better deal than the small packs. They weigh nothing so postage is very cheap
