Having your fingers on the ground is a good way to break them. Ever had your puck stuck in a crack on the road and pull off? Now imagine thats your finger, you would break it.

 

Lifting your fingers off the ground is a good habit to get into. Buy these gloves, put some tape on the fingers and get into the habit.... The missus will thank you.

Ahhhh good explaination Dani, i never thought of that, i just followed what everyone said. Its good to know an explaination for why instead of saying to take the finger pucks off for no reason. Always thought it was just easier to carry your board and grab rail

Stoked on all the slide tips - I get my finger jammed all the time, so I just use beefy pucks for some extra clearance. The pucks we send with these gloves are for high performance freeride and race - thin, light, round, beveled and durable.

 

Gloves will ship with the next order of decks to Australia, we don't control that, the distributor does, so ask your local shop. That said, this is the first batch we've made so they are limited. Now that we know people like them and want them we're in the process of making the second batch.
