    How does the softness and stretching of G08 compare to supergrap? Tackiness is not that a priority for me, hence not looking at G09.

    I suggest you to take a few of each kind before purchase a lot
    such as purchase 1 set of 10 grips
    [FONT=&quot]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140378436965[/FONT]
    (could mix up G08 G09 G11 any model any color)
    and you also could ask Eric to exchange 1 with G16 POWER GARB if you want to try it

    [FONT=&quot]RKEP thin over grip: (no self adhensive back)
    G08 SOFT75 0.7mm, cloth feel, design for sweaty hand
    G09 ELITE 0.6mm: tacky stiff feel
    G11 WET TAPE 0.6mm (close to Y brand SUPER GRAB) with power up hole
    G16 POWER GRAB: G08 + stitching: power up and won't slip away

    [/FONT]

    For overgrips, G08 and G11 are awesome.
    For replacement grips, the G01 is really comfortable and the G03 if you want something thicker.
    The G16 is also nice but it altered my BP significantly on my Thruster! It's possibly the heaviest overgrip I have used!

    Picked up a digital scale today and measured some of the grips.

    G08 - 9g
    G11 - 7g
    G16 - 10~11g
    G03 - 19g

    I love the G16 POWER GRAB grips. It's my main grip at the moment. I have extremely sweaty hands and the stitching on it really prevents the grip from slipping. One thing though, the stitching is a bit too hard. The downside is that it gives me a blister/callus on my palm.

    Maybe Eric can try a slightly different version with softer stitching?

    Eric, what's the biggest difference between your G09 vs G08?
    Just the thickness?

    G08 SOFT75 slighty thicker & has a less tacky feel. Some say a bit of a cloth feel. Much better for sweaty hands.
    G09 Elite slightly thinner & has a very tacky feel. Depends if you like the tacky feel, but I will say do not use if you have sweaty hands.

    So basically, if you have sweaty hands - use G08 or G16.
    If you do not have sweaty hands and like tacky grips - use G09.

    Yeah but if you look at the chart for each of those grips on the RKEP store, the only difference is the thickness.
