Hello All,
I have been buying foam hand rims from SportAid for 25 years now for about $99 a pair. They would last a year and then I would re-purchase, at $99 who cares that they last a year. Now, I have been told due to some government regulation the manufacturing process has been halted and they are unavailable. So I tried Q-Grip and they sucked, after 1 week they felt just like black vinyl hand rims. I then saw my old foam hand rims on the Melrose website for $360 a pair. Since I have more money than sense I bought them out of desperation. They suck and are not as good as the $99 pair from Sportaid. Does anybody know where or how I can get a tacky hand rim? I have read the other threads on this forum on hand rims and it looks like the only pair I have NOT tried is Blax, but I am afraid they will also suck.
P.S. - for the last three years I have had severe neck pain and numbness and tingling in my arms, shoulders and hands. My friends said I had a syrinx, but my surgeon said that would be extremely rare. A CT and MRI proved him right and was diagnosed with spinal stenosis and arthritis at C-5. He did a single level neck fusion and I went home the next day.....the pain was completely gone as soon as I woke up from the anesthesia. What does this have to do with hand rims ? It has been 4 weeks since my surgegry and I am feeling stronger than a fuc**ing bull. I have muscles that are getting reactivated that went dormant for years because of the bad C-5. I feel like I could go back to playing quad rugby again at 59. But, I cannot get a decent grip on my hand rims to reach my full potential. Hell, quad knobs would be better than this.....these foam rims are slicker then eel shit. Help !!!!
