Rolling a grip down
« on: December 13, 2015, 07:59:01 PM »

Been trying for ages to get my grip down to the stickers but nothing seems to be working. Use the common method of rolling it up and down but the grip just keeps sticking to itself and then crease. It's massively frustrated as my bottom hand sits quite low on the bat. Any ideas what I can do to get it to where I want it?

Take it off and start again. If you don't have a grip cone use the plastic bag method

Thanks mate will have to get a grip cone, tried the bag method and it was awful, broke 5/6 bags!! Think it's just an awful grip to be honest.

Yes sometimes you can roll the grip down to the vee the first time of trying and sometimes you need to do as stated by vitas keep removing the grip and rerolling it  the thicker grips are the ones that can stick.

Bought it off that getpaddedup website and i only put it on for the last few games of the season. All my bats have white snake grip and I want to get some more but nowhere seems to have any.

I smear a thin layer of PVA glue over the binding of the handle which then lets the grip be slid up or down into your preferred position. The glue sets but doesn't stop the grip from being removed at a later date.
