IMO these are the best training grips out there. A lot of great thought went into these and it's very apparent when using them.

Get them!

I'd get'em just to show'em off. They look like art compared to my fingerboard.

If its a good product I want to know and I want other people to know about it so that they can make some money on innovative ideas that improve the way we train.

Have ordered them, they impressed me very much, looking forward receiving them. How long might it take to ship them to Switzerland?

Looks like a lot of sharp edges that would be hard on the tendons.

I've always been extremely conservative when it comes to training and damaging my tendons. I've been using these almost daily at my local gym and I can tell you from experience that they are extremely ergonomic and there are no sharp edges to worry about.

It's amazing how many configurations you can create with these grips. Extremely versatile!

Looks like it could cam in a crack well, maybe about the size of a #6 Camalot?

Sure looks lighter, too.

Nice to see the interest in our product. If anyone has questions, I'm happy to answer them, though it seems like users are already doing a good job of that! :-)

Those are cool. When folks start getting them please post a few videos. I am looking forward to seeing them in action. They are cool enough I might have to buy two sets. One for home and one for the gym at work;;

If you want to send me your name or email address, to craig@sicgrips.com, I can check on it. Even though things get sent Priority mail it starts slowing down some this time of year...

these definately look KICK-ASS and just ordered up a pair. Look forward to hanging around on them indoors this winter. Hope to get them before X-mas if possible.....7 days shipment if lucky?

Hello Craig, thank you, I ordered them two days ago and they will be shipped to switzerland - I don't think we can really speed it up. :-) But many thanks, I'll post it when they arrived and my arms are exhausted the first time.
thanks, Peter

Hi Peter, I've sent you an email with the USPS tracking information. My experience is that this time of year with international First Class shipping things can go really slow. Hopefully you'll get it within 6-10 working days however, things have taken as long as 3 weeks. :-( Unfortunately that is out of our hands. Hope it arrives in a timely fashion.
