    white colour. the problem definitely came from the edges so not convinced that the tackiness was the issue.

    Strange... never heard of anyone else having had a problem with the edges.

    Maybe next time you should try the G10 instead, which is slightly softer... edges and all.

    I ordered some RKEP grips, could not decide on the type so i ordered more types. Have 2 VTZF2, one with g10 and 1 wht g8.. Tried the G8 Friday, is was superb. Great tackiness and some cushioning. Wil try the g10 today

    4x g10 in green #4
    2x g11 in green #4
    2x g9 in green #4
    2x g8 in green #4

    Correct,

    I normaly have it stringed with BG80 yellow. And the G11 and G11 realy come close to the fluorescent type of yellow/green of BG80.

    En the normal Yellow of the grips i found to bee more orange like. Second thing is that is got a set of Apacs Slayer66 strings in green. Which happen to correspond with the green of the G8 grips. The green of the g9 is just in between that...
