Raptor Grips & Hardware

So you felt it necessary to add "hardware" into your company name because you include some crappy plastic barends just like EVERY OTHER GRIP COMPANY THAT EXISTS? Maybe if you start making pegs or good metal barends you can warrant the name "hardware" but right now I don't see it to be at all necessary.

Fail attempt at trolling right here.

Dom Raptor scales get softer and softer the longer you use them, mine are coming 4 weeks old and are now same softness maybe even softer than Odis.

It's just that the horizontally ribbed design, as opposed to vertical ribs, makes it seem like your hands would slip off.
I'll still pick up a pair pretty soon though. Couldn't hurt to try em out.

my brother got some so i put em on my scooter and had a sesh, i instantly hated them because of how thick they are i could barely do anything with them so i took them off but then again maybe i could have got used to them for a couple days....so i might go for them as my next grips

Yeah, I was on the fence the first few days. It's because it's something new. Or in my case, going back in time, since they kind of mimic the thickness of foamies.

Little known fact. ODI Soft compounds only came to us because of myself and Scooter Zone. ODI Flaked on my signature grip, so they offered Scooter Zone an "exclusive soft compound grip" that used the compound that I wanted for my grip. And I know what you mean, I didn't think much of the grips either until I tried them.

its not an exclusive for scooter zone i didnt even buy em at scooter zone. i ride bmx i ordered them on dans the day they came out

hahahahahaha at the above,
its funny for some reason, also i want to try out these grips some time as the impact absorbtion (from thicker grips) seems like a good idea to me as well as it making the grip last longer. i will hopefully get hold of these one day but my current odi's are still in fairly good condtion.

Originally Scooter Zone did have them exclusively. Not sure about now. Although I do know that Scooter Zone is a distributor of ODI products.

But back on topic, should have some news for you guys tonight or tomorrow. STAY TUNED!

I like Odi length, and width, but the scales are really comfy they just feel wierd since the length to width ratio is diffent then what im use to.
