What are the pros and cons of velcro and buckle grips for uneven bars in gymnastics?
Buckle grips are probably the way to go. Velcro grips eventually lose their stickiness, and you have to wrap a rubber band around the strap to keep your grip on.
Pros- Velcro
-Easier to put on
-Long velcro strip, if wrists get bigger velcro still fits (not taking into account increased size of hand and length, etc.)
Cons- Velcro
-Loses stick eventually
-Loosens with turns on the apparatus and must be re-tightened constantly (after every turn or so, depends on how they feel)
-Velcro will occasionally come undone while performing a skill
Pros- Buckles
-Keep tight entire time while on the apparatus
-Will not become undone
Cons- Buckles
-More difficult and time-consuming to put on-- in extreme circumstances could involve the help of other people
-If growth in the wrists occur, buckle grips will run out of holes to put the buckle through, and either more holes will have to be drilled or a new, larger pair will have to be ordered
