I use my old motocross gloves when it's cold.

I use gloves because I get blisters.....anyone else gets them?

I don't use gloves, even in winter riding. Can't stand the reduced grip & sensibility.

I use wake board gloves. They are great and made for holding on in the water. Buy a size smaller though once they get wet they get a little bigger.

I use ones just like that.....the ones with the amara/kevlar palms are the strongest, I think the odi grip screws tear them up..

what I like about them is the fat 2" wrist strap....they never come off, and give just a little wrist support if you piledrive the bottom


you are using a size larger because of your monkey fingered sasquatch hands....a known size effect of 1000+cc MONSTERS!!! :djsmilie:

As other have contributed...waterskiing/wakeboarding gloves are designed to be grippy in the water and they're designed to hold up to the extreme ripping forces that break normal gloves down.

That's why I use them. I get bad blisters after only one weekend.

I don't use gloves, even in winter riding. Can't stand the reduced grip & sensibility.

Try the kevlar gloves... You will obviously lose the sensibility but the grip will be greatly increased. Plus I doubt you have much sensibility after about 15 minutes in the winter anyway.

I feel like my grip is SO much better with gloves. After trying gloves once I could never not wear them now. It feels like riding without my first layer of skin.

I buy two new sets every year...

Slippery Switch gloves... great grip, hold up nicely for the year.

Recycle into yard working gloves then trash...

Going to try the Jet Pilot's next season...

They are cheap... helps im a dealer for both :woot:

I was looking at some of the heavy duty wakeskate/waterskiing gloves.. I will definitely try them next.

Jet Pilots are good for a year. I bought some really cheap MX gloves that have lasted longer.

No worries, I'm a gear whore.

All new gear every year :woot:

Naw.....hot-hands mods keeps my hands warm even in 36 degree water.

 

[Martin33]

I use the 661 Raja glove, I can get them nearly for nothing, havent had and probs with them. Same glove I use for BMX and Mountain biking, works fine for me...

My Jet Pilots lasted.....two rides. My slipperys I get a season and a half out of. I'll probably pick up a pair of what Bogie suggested for next year.

I can't ride without gloves, regardless of weather. I lose too much grip and I don't feel safe.

When summer rolls around, I need a tan through glove backing. Looks really wierd when I'm sitting at work with lobster red arms and face with pale white hands.
