I recomend Dowel grips right away. Just better to get used to them. I coach boys, so I am not entirely sure if there are differences when using them on the bar.

I have my boys use buckle as opposed to velcro. They don't undo them and redo them, and buckle usually stays tighter.

Againust an opinion.. Try and see what you and your coach likes.

I would recommend the dowel grips aswell. I got them when i started level four and now can't do bars without them. I also have the velcro because i found these easier to adjust but it is a matter of personal preference. the hook and loop ones sound interesting though. i have never heard of them before.
