Interested in trying G03 (King), G05 (Ultimate), G06 (Power Master), G08 (Soft75) and G09 (Elite).

Willing to pay $3CAD for replacement grips and $1.50CAD for overgrips. Let me know what colours you are willing to part with.

I have G06 and G09 (both are white) that you can try...no charge. You just have to pick them up. PM me for details.

Jaysus Tsuioku, just order some through Eric!

**Tsuioku** · 10-20-2011, 01:15 AM

I'll be ordering soon enough... Just waiting for the new G03 and G11 to come out...
In the meanwhile, I just want to get a head start to see what I like =)

**kevindd992002** · 10-20-2011, 01:36 AM

So the G03 and G11 are new replacement grips that are supposed to be better than the current models?

Any change you'll be able to sell victor items to Europe any time soon, Eric? Could really use one of those sweet looking wristbands.

When is this going to happen?

Why do you keep asking here in a public forum

?

I have the most over excessive sweat glands. I'm using the G09 and it's been lasting for nearly 2 months. I had a friend give me a few before and I've sworn by it. I play about 12+ hours a week. I just bought 24 from Eric. Will buy more if needed. I'm sworn by RKEP. Thanks Eric.

REVIEW! RKEP Powermaster G-06 vs Ultimate G-05

Okay, so, I'm an original Karakal PU Super user, and when the QC on those things went down (started cracking and flaking on application like they were made out of wet paint or something) I went looking for an alternative.

I'm a fan of the 1.8mm replacement grips, because the thickness is just right for my larger hands. Put on with just a few mm of overlap, they work out to be about the same thickness or just a smidge thicker than a factory grip with a 0.6mm overgrip.

I've been running the Powermasters for 6 months or so now, and they're nice. Essentially, they're just a factory-like grip that when applied is the same thickness of a regular factory grip plus one layer of overgrip. If you like the feel of a factory grip and wish you could dump the overgrip, then this is a grip for you. The facets of the handle are still feelable (I'm sure thats not a word). Cusioning is not much different than a factory grip, that is to say, fairly firm.

Now the Ultimate I've literally only been running for a week and I put one on my spare MX80 so I could make a direct comparison. The Ultimate is a direct replacement for the Karakal PU Super in look and feel, so if you like the PU's then this is the one to get. It's better than the PU's because when applied it doesnt form as pronounced ridges or bumps where it overlaps, and it's slightly stretchier too. It's got good cushioning like the PU and allows your hand to 'sink in'. Slightly tackier than the Powermaster but only marginally.

I'm not a big sweaty palm guy like some of you out there so I can't really tell you how they'd go 'in the wet', but in terms of their basic look and feel, this is how they stack up.

Couple of other superficial things you should know.

Firstly, the colour does effect the grip levels. The white Powermasters are quite slippery, the black, red, aqua are better. Note too that there is no 'Blue' Powermaster - one is aqua and the other is purple. I haven't tried any other colour than blue in the Ultimates, but the other colours I have are black and red so I suspect they should be fine. Be keen to hear what others think.

So there you go. Oh, should also mention that the price for these is excellent.

So, to summarise, if you like the feel of factory grips but just which they were a smidge thicker, the Powermaster is the one to go for. If you're a Karakal PU fan, the Ultimate is both better and cheaper so you can't go wrong.
