That coating feels tacky fresh out of the package, but\n    light use breaks it down fast, leaving a slippery strip of material on your handle. VukGrip\n    took a different approach entirely.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eFriction-Based Grip, Not a Sticky Coating\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Instead of a coating that wears out, VukGrip is engineered around textured friction. That\n    means the grip doesn't fade as the tacky layer rubs off, and you're not reaching for pine\n    tar, tiger stick, or bat spray adhesive mid-game to compensate. It performs the same whether\n    the field is bone dry or soaked — something liquid grip aids simply can't do.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eAward-Winning, MLB-Proven\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    VukGrip earned \u003cstrong\u003e\"Best of Show\" at the 2017 ABCA Convention\u003c\/strong\u003e, the world's\n    largest baseball trade show, in its very first year on the market.

That layer feels good for a few swings, then\n    breaks down, and you're back to hunting for a liquid adhesive to make a $10+ \"premium\" grip\n    usable again. VukGrip was built to skip that cycle entirely, which is why it holds its\n    performance long after other wraps go slick.

VukGrip uses friction-based grip technology instead of a tacky top layer, so it\n      doesn't degrade the same way and holds its performance over a much longer stretch of play.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eDo I still need pine tar or grip spray with VukGrip?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      No. VukGrip was specifically designed to eliminate the need for pine tar, tiger stick, or\n      bat spray adhesive.
