spezzy Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 Hey all! I'm looking in to getting some Nerd Fitness wrist wraps made. Here is a mock up: The only thing, is that these are expensive to get made, so we don't want to get a bunch made and then find out that no one is interested, so we are going to do something a bit different for these. So Steve has agreed to let me try a pre-order of sorts for these! Here's how it will work: I've created an INTEREST form here:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1KlMhYBQGOB8Un3NaSeZggbJi9J_BIAEIOiJMvGTHKx8/viewform Please fill out the form if you would like to purchase a pair of wrist wraps. If we get enough interest, I will follow up with you via email along with a payment link. PLEASE DO NOT FILL OUT THE FORM IF YOU AREN'T ACTUALLY INTERESTED IN PURCHASING.

El Exorcisto Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 If you were having elastic and velcro wraps made I'd be interested, but that style of wrap doesn't do a thing for me.

Ancalagon The Black Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Agreed with the above. Elastic + velcro + wrist support would be awesome. Quote Ancalagon The Black. Half Dragon Spellsword Link to comment
WizardTrip Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I would love to have a pair, but damn....you're right! They are expensive to get made. Right now I have about 5 pairs of wraps, a couple of which are new, so I wouldn't be able to justify the cost on these for me right now Quote Level 6 Wizard of Beer Warrior STR 21.25 | DEX 5.75 | STA 7.75 | CON 3.50 | WIS 9.50 | CHA 3.25 Twitter | Epic Trip | Current Challenge Previous Challenges: 1 2 3 4 5 *the warrior formerly known as icedtrip and former dothraki god of thunder furyan* Link to comment

alienjenn Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 /me is going to ask a stupid question... what do you use these for... and could I see a picture of something similar in use??

El Exorcisto Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 They are used to support the wrist in pressing movements and some people use them for low bar squatting to keep their wrists out of hyperextension. I dont know where I would find that style of wrap in use. Watch any footage of someone benching in a powerlifting meet and you'll see velcro wrist wraps in use.

thewritescott Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 I'm in the market for some good wrist straps. So yes. Are you anywhere close to having enough pre-orders? Quote I can. I will. I did. https://www.nerdfitness.com/character/137150/ Link to comment
