Wearing Gymnastics Grips?

Subject: rips

Dear Coach,

My daughter has been doing gymnastics for almost 3 years. She couldn’t get her kip.

She used her grips so she wouldn’t get rips or blisters. One day she tried to do her kip without the grips and did the kip very well. Now she won’t use the grips anymore.

The problem is, she is getting rips all the time now. Any solutions?????

Thank You,

L&C

It might help your daughter to know that most high level gymnasts wear grips, including World Uneven Bar Champion and All-Around Olympic Champion Nastia Liukin and World Championship Bar Silver medallist Chellsie Memmel. USA gymnasts Nastia Liukin and Chellsie Memmel were first and second on bars at the World Championships and they both wear grips. You might make more progress with her if you tell her the best gymnasts on bars use grips and would recommend to her to do the same.
