Ok, so I was just wondering. Lately, my grips, which I've had since end of March, have started to feel slippery, stiff... and just a bit off / insecure. The pair I've had before that has lasted me about half a year as well. The pair before that was my first, and I had them for a couple of years,.. but that was only slightly more than a year of regular workouts and 3 years of occasional usage when I went to university and was forced to quit. I didn't use water back then either.
The thing is though, I hardly ever do bars more than twice a week and don'T have that many swinging skills (like, I can't do giants,... I might to clear hip- flyaway but that's the most swinging I'm doing). I also use water (lots), which I guess might make them wear our sooner.
So, just so that I don't feel overly stupid about buying new grips yet again: How long do your grips normally last? Am I being too picky about the feel of my grips or is it pretty much normal to need a new pair sometime soon?
