Elite Protec Women’s Uneven Bar Grips • Hook & Loop

Built for the Work Behind the Routine.

Hours of practice sit behind every polished bar routine, and choosing the right grips is part of that preparation. Reisport Elite Protec Women’s Uneven Bar Grips combine reinforced leather laminate with an adjustable hook-and-loop fastening, offering experienced gymnasts a specialist option for regular uneven bar training.

Reisport Elite Protec – Reinforced Grips for Women’s Uneven Bars

The defining feature is Protec leather laminate: a reinforced construction designed to limit stretching. Reisport describes this material as having three times the strength of ordinary leather and less than 1% stretch, making it a relevant option when durability and resistance to stretching are priorities.

Each grip features two finger holes and an attached dowel, with a broad hook-and-loop wrist strap that allows the fastening to be adjusted. The grips are made in Switzerland and designed specifically for women’s uneven bars.

For gymnasts considering a change from standard leather grips, the reinforced construction is the key difference to discuss with their coach. Allow time to prepare the grips and become familiar with their feel before introducing them into competition routines.

Part of Your Pre-Bar Routine

Wristbands on, grips checked, straps adjusted: the small preparations before a turn on bars become a familiar part of training. Elite Protec fits into that routine for gymnasts who take time to look after their equipment, work through changes with their coach and arrive at each session ready to concentrate on the skills ahead.

Choosing and Preparing Your Grips

Choose the model and size with your gymnastics coach. Measure from the base of the palm to the tip of the middle finger, then consult the size guide supplied for these grips. Select by hand measurement and fit, rather than age.

The finger holes should sit only as far as the first knuckle from the fingertips on the middle and ring fingers. Ask your coach to check the complete fit, including the wrist fastening, before using the grips on the apparatus.

Follow Reisport’s preparation instructions. Do not use water to soften the leather, cut the dowel or use knives or scissors to enlarge the finger holes. Inspect the grips before every use and stop using them if any component is damaged.

Product Highlight

🤸 Protec Reinforcement for Demanding Uneven Bar Training

The combination of reinforced leather laminate, reduced stretch and an adjustable hook-and-loop fastening gives Elite Protec a clear purpose within the Reisport range: a specialist grip option for experienced gymnasts and their coaches to consider.

Why We Recommend It

Elite Protec is worth considering when a coach recommends greater resistance to stretching for regular bar work. The construction offers a meaningful reason to choose this model, with suitability determined by the gymnast’s training, preferences and fit.

Dance World Tip

Prepare a spare pair before you need it. Reisport recommends keeping a backup pair of broken-in grips, so a replacement does not have to be introduced for the first time on competition day.
