“Grip is definitely different than the previous grip, you can feel more of the rubber feel to the grip. Almost feels as if the grip would help with vibration to the tool when striking something. It is less steps installing than previous wrap however, I didn’t feel I had as much control of the texturizing for the grip. Since it is all in one you are fighting time to get the texture that you are desiring. My issue when installing was the resin clumping on me and not taking enough off. Result was some clumpy parts. In all I do like the wrap. The 2.5 inch width of the wrap felt sufficient and I had enough to wrap half a NY hook.”
