What are they?

bogwoppit explains:

They make the finger holes of your grips smaller. I managed to get some from the UK, where they call them wedgies!

Order from GymnasticExpress.co.uk.

Without them, kids simply stuff foam into the finger holes to fill the gap.

Sure do know where you can buy them. I looked all over for them, I live in Quebec and then I discovered the factory that makes them is in the tiny country town in the UK where my parents had just moved too. The world is a very funny place. I ordered them and the owner met my mother in a cafe to give her the wedgies. All very clandestine.

Here is the web address http://www.gymnasticexpress.co.uk/shop/product.php?xProd=23 they will mail overseas and do bulk packs of white ones and smaller pack of, the much coveted, multicoloured ones.

Rick drop me an email if you want to try some, I got a whole ton way back.

Thanks bogwoppit.

Since I’m not coaching right now I don’t really need them. Still, they are a GREAT idea.
