Rink Grip LP10E vs Regular grip

Post by conradin »

Anyone know if Rink grip for the LP10E is still better than a regular factory grip with putty molded to my hand?

It's a bit hard to compare a Rink grip with your own personally puttied factory grip, but I do have both a Rink grip on my LP10E which, obviously, replaced a factory grip.

I personally find the Rink grip superior however, YMMV.

I agree with Leon. Yet , the support plank at the base is a bit short on the Rink , modification might be needed.

I replaced the factory grip lp10 with small rink. I think it's better to use the factory grips with putty modification. unless you go to the manufacturer's grip and ordered anatomical grip with scoring based on your hands. That was the last I waste money buying after market grip. Moreover, the size of the hands of our ever-changing times fatter sometime thinner. The addition of putty is more practical than buying aftermarket grip. I never put rink grip grip now. Strange taste in my hand and did not fit.

What a "strange" question.

If the Rink grip fits you better than the factory grip with putty then yes, it's better for you.

If it doesn't then it isn't.

One thing to watch for with the Rink grip is its width. My LP10E failed a dimension check and I had to do a serious amount of power sanding to get it within tolerance.

Best check yours before going to a competition.

If the frame is set at an angle in the grip with the adjusting screws with an XL Morini or large Rink, it will not fit in the box.
