My daughter uses Reisport with the double buckles--the velcro always wears out before the grips do!

My dd is a reisport girl only. I purchased a buckle pair but she refused to wear them. I know this sounds wierd but I think the unwraping/wrapping to adjust the straps has become a type of ritual to her over the years. When the velcro starts to wear out, I just have it replaced.

My daughter uses Baile's elite brand. She is a hard bar worker and these hold up better than other brands she has used. They have one buckle and one velcro strap.

my club uses resport and has never had a problem with them. but i would advise getting buckle grips because you dont mess arouns with the velcrow and the velcrow comes undone allot

Reisport, ten-o and tensport were the grips my gym girls and i used. they were velcro, another alternative to taping down the velcro is using thick rubberbands or elastic hair ties to secure loose velcro.

I would defenitly agree, those are really good brands. My aunt () bought me some from Nastia Luikin's line (what was she thinking ) and I wear those for practice and once for a meet because I forgot my competition pair. They're my back-up pair.

And I would defenitly wear the ones with buckles. I have the double-band strap buckle ones (sorry if that doesn't make sense!)
