Doug Likes KOXX Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Recently I have been trying to learn to pedal kick and it is the only thing that has been stopping me from progressing with trials. I have blisters on my hands which means i cant lift the bars up because they hurt. Has anyone got any ideas on how you can stop yourself from getting blisters on your hands as often other than gloves or new grips. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 (edited) Maybe try different grips? I know the Echo grips I had have given me awful calluses. I just call them working hands though I've moved onto Trial tech foams now but not ridden with them yet to compare. Just wear gloves until they've healed. Edit: just saw u said without new grips. :/ Edited August 18, 2010 by dann2707 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each time it happens your skin is getting tougher, it's just a pain we all go through at the beginning. Surgical spirit will help them toughen up quicker though.

N.Wood Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Just gotta keep going... They'll turn from blisters into calluses in no time. You and your missus should get used to them, as they'll be around for your whole trials career. Gloves and soft grips (soft rubber or foam) will help, but once they harden up there'll be no pain and oh so much gain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
