easton tackifying cloth

[hudsonhockey22 0]

i know its been talked about before, but cant find it, yes i searched ... but i am gettin the non-grip SE, and have been using my xxx lite with its grip, so im thinking the SE may be a little slippery .. i dont know why i didnt order the grip, but how is this tackifying cloth ... does it leave residue on palms or anything ... do u guys suggest it?

thanks

Ummm, it only lasts about a period or 2 for me and sent my palms to hell. I dont reccomend

Just do the old candy cane job. Cant go wrong with that B)

Ive found that the cloth gives it a little too much grip. Im a big fan of just rubbing friction tape or the tacky side of cloth tape on the shaft which gives it a perfect grip.

i just started using it, don't find it lasts very long. & not sure i'd want to use it with my new mia's.

I tryed it and thought the same as others (does not last). I have been using POW R GRIP spray for the last 3 years until I recently tryed Grip Dip. It's the best stuff I've tryed yet.

If your not looking for a super grip......

I've done this for the past few months.

Most of the non-grip sticks I get a very shiny and slick when they're brand new.

I take a can of spray laquer....clear semi-gloss works for me......and I spray the portion of my stick where I want the grip.

It doesn't give me grip like say max stick um.....but it does give me a little bit more grip than sliding down the shaft of the shiny slick brand new shaft.

Give it a try...

The xxx-lite grip isn't very noticeable anyway. There shouldn't be too much of a difference between the SE and Lite. I would think you'll get used to the non-grip very fast. When I went xxx-lite to one90 it was different at first but got used to it after a few skates.

Unless you feel like keeping it on the bench with you and applying the grip one or twice a period, don't waste your money. Mine lasted about 3 shifts before it rubbed off.
