Wrist supports
«

Hello All,
I recently sprained my left wrist snatching. I've noticed that a lot of folk where wrist supports, but I can't find anything that looks like what I've seen people wear. Does anyone have any ideas on this.
In the mean time, I took one of my old Inzer double gold line knee wraps (another time, another life) and cut it half. It's really distracting (and time consuming) to wrap my wrist, then put a wrist band over it to keep the wrap from bugging me as I'm gripping and ripping.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
All the best,
Arden

I use boxing type long as hell wrist wraps. like they sell at Hibbetts.
Work fine.
Have used half ace bandage but they cut off the circulation and made my hands swell up like baloons.

I also use a boxing wrist wrap, it tends to work though the pain in my wrist likes to creep up anyway, I sometimes use a neoprene support they tend to be less of a pain in the butt to get on, sometimes the pain is more managable with the neoprene one though I can wrap the wrist tighter with the boxing wrap.

Yeah, the long cotton wraps are best, because not only do they give more firm support
w/o the squeeze feeling of elastic straps,
they also are easy to loosen btwn sets, and tighten for the work w/ just a twist of the outer layer.
The leather ones w/ straps are very appealing, and have been listed on WE some time ago, but I still think the Everlast wraps are best.

I have some ATP wraps/supports that I'm pretty happy with, there's a ton of different styles and levels of support etc.

Howdy Arden. I use these wrist wraps and have used their products for years. The wrist wraps have velcro and are extremely quick to put on or adjust. I just clipped the thumb loop off because I haven't the need for the loop. Great wrist support.
