s&m hoder or odsy broc grips
« on: June 03, 2015, 04:42:55 PM »
Just stopped by Empire today looking for replacements to my ripped soft compound odi's.

the new hoder's looked legit and have a 32mm diam. Ended up picking them over the odsy broc's. The hoder's are made in USA by Odi but the odsy's include par ends. Both are about 160mm length and equally soft.

Which would you have picked? or are you happy with another grip (flangeless or not)

I need flanges.

I'd like the soft compound long necks with flanges. I've never seen them for sale anywhere.

Ah right on, yeah i don't think they make em. the soft compound feels great and retains some degree of grip even if they're wet

Threw on some Hoders few weeks ago. Pretty stoked on them. Can't say much about the Brocs besides Par Ends are sweet.

Right there with ya Rusty! Dare I say they are the best feeling grips ever? Thick diameter feels good on bigger hands. And yep pulled some pretty easy feeling hop whips. Couldn't be happier with them. Still running my old par ends tho. Oh yeah and no signs of wear after 1 good session.

No flange grips make me feel like she's got the clap but is also the only one out there so I guess I have to.

The ODI Stay Strong grips are the Soft Compound with Flanges. Also Duo's grips have flanges and are made with the ODI Soft Compound.

yes the regular compound can be. I found my reg compound odi's to be more comfortable if i trimmed the length and then stretched them on the bar versus trying to squish down a longer length on the same bar.

The hoder's are where it's at if you like a thicker feeling yet semi squishy grip (32mm diam). The sundays looked to be a little too thin for me (alternating 29/30 diam according to Dan's).

I'm gonna get a pic on here for yall to see...
