Just got these Bear KompleX 3-hole carbon grips, and wow—they’re a game-changer for pull-ups and bar work. No more chalk mess, and the sticky carbon fiber actually *works*. First time I hung from the bar, it felt like my hands were glued on (in a good way).
Fit tip: I sized up to Large for a slight dowel effect, and the wrist straps stay put without digging in. The angled cut? Genius. Took me a sec to figure out the thumb-side alignment, but once I did, full palm coverage—bye-bye, callus anxiety.
Used them for muscle-ups and toes-to-bar yesterday. Zero slipping, zero adjustment mid-WOD. Only con? The price stings a bit, but after trying 5 other grips that ripped or slid, these feel worth it. (Also, pro tip: twist your smartwatch if you wear one—learned that the hard way.)
PS: They’re NOT marked L/R, but the design makes it obvious once you try them. And no, you don’t need chalk… but hey, they play nice with it if you’re extra like me.
