Salix hybrid but upside down. A lot easier on the gloves too than some of the others (ie octopus!)

Ripple grip with an extra layer of thick binding on the bottom half of the handle.

Kookaburra's half and half grip at the moment, I doubt it'll last long before I have to change it though.

Just changed from the GM snake grip back to octopus ones. I like to change and found the GM grips a little hard.

I use GM Shock Absorba, but I don't know why, it looks interesting. I don't really care what a grip feels like, how do I know what is good or bad? Is there any difference? Why do people think GM Control is good, who cares?

GM control really digs into the gloves and stops handle from spinning
