| Basically no more flared sidewalls. No more "arrow" shape head, it goes to the widest point on the scoop, and goes straight. If you look at a cyber, it's close. |

| so i tried dipping the botton 2 or 3 inches of my stick in, to replace the tap holding the endcap on. i only did a single coat, and its solid and much lighter than the tape i had on before, which was kind of an excessive amount. its not very gripy though... maybe ill add sand to it if i ever do it again, idk. | |

| Seriously, if you're going through this much effort, you need new gloves. |

| dont by stx anything. they base their entire product line off of the name kyle harrison, and the stuff isn't that great. always buy brine gloves, they are the best gloves, and best value on the market. i'd go with some exodus 2's or some kings. maybe even defts if u dont care how new the product is | |

| I loved my STX gladiators when I had them. and most of the stuff on the market, for STX, is based on Gladiators, in some shape or forum. If you take a look at most of their new gloves, they resemble gladiators quite a bit. I hate brine and warrior. Brine gloves are too tight for my liking and I feel as if my thumbs don't even have gloves on-a lack of protection. And warrior gloves always feel really stiff, no matter how long you've had them. I went out and got a pair of Gait Chaos gloves and I love them, only thing I dislike about them is the velcro on bottom of the palm is annoying. The grip is lasting and they have the same general feel as my Glads did. I'd stay away from warrior, they are way over priced. If you had to get a pair of gloves that just came out on the market and you like brine, I'd say go with kings because they are cheaper than exodus 2's; but if you don't care what brand it is or when they came out, find a pair of gladiators and get those. Mine lasted me two years, and I wore them every day(yes even in winter because I throw around in my basement of the cement ground) because I dislike throwing without gloves on. Gloves are personal opinion. If you buy a pair and you don't like them, you can always send them back after wearing them while just throwing around.
p.s.-this is just my personal opinion. | |
