alright i had primo corey martinez grips and they
+last forever
+/-thick
+not slippery
-they make ur hands hurt
-not comfy
-will give u blisters easily

longnecks
everthings great but they are slippery
and if u start sweating or ur hands get a little damp u might as well hold on to a steel pipe there no good if u get slippery hands.

foamies
+comfy
+cheap
+absorb sweet
+no slip
+/- some say they look stupid/gay
-they wear down and get compressed easily

whip scooter style foamies
+look sweet
+last forever
+cheap to make
+not slippery at all!!!!!!!!!
+no blisters, no nothing.
+/-they will still get compressed like normal foamies but u cant feel it like a normal compressed foamy

To me there is in the begging they give you blisters like a mofo.
and if you have sweaty hands they slip sooooo bad.

Sunline Grips

pros:

nice and long,exellent for wide bars
still havent worn since i had them (about 2 months ago)
very Grippy,good for Bri's/Front Bri's rotation
they never slip off
they also have barend on the end of the grips
cheap,only Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?£3.50 (about just over $5)
comes in Grey and Black

cons:

the good grips make scooter-flips quite tricky
hard to put on/remove
wont fit as good on Stock 3-piece bars (the grips are longer than the bars themselves)

so in all,fantastic grips 4/5. ;)

Edwins dont last long at all, and they are slippery when you sweat.

Can you read ^^ I stated that they are slippery.
And I have had mine for 3 months, and they are still in great shape.

Longnecks.

+ Super comfy once broken in.
+ Seem to dry quicker than most other grips
+ Can find them in most bike shops
+ Pretty much always look good, and easy to take flanges off cleanly.

- Slippery when slippery
- Wear onto your hands a bit

Overall I definitely say try these, if you're not happy I'd be extremely suprised.
