dean_redzic Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) Does anyone have any ideas on a way to use the vulcan gripper in a situation where chalk is just not possible? I am normally fine for the first few sets, but it just gets slippery after that. Some sort of adhesive spray maybe? Edit: I have used sports tape in the past but it seems to change the diameter of the handles too much and it was still slippery Edited October 1, 2019 by dean_redzic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist of Fury Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Use liquid chalk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran Paulinič Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Spit in your palm. It works. But it is gross I suppose. Slightly wet palm is the best but it may tore your skin too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleksandar Milosevic Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I literally just rub my hand against my shorts or shirt and get it dry as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheParacordist Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 a piece of athletic tape works well for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean_redzic Posted October 16, 2019 Author Share Posted October 16, 2019 This is what I ended up with....and it is perfect! Not sticky or tacky but dries the hands out perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist of Fury Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Just remember, if you're going to compete. Magnesium carbonate (non liquid) is the only substance allowed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant use chalk in a meeting room!!!!!! Edited October 16, 2019 by dean_redzic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use this when I'm training at home and I can even touch stuff if I'm careful, it won't leave much of a trace, if it does it's easy to clean of with paper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to run RRBT to give me a bigger launching pad an run the same cycle again...but hopefully higher numbers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
