High friction rubber above and below ensures that the skis don't move while you work. For sharpening steel edges, simply orient your ski on its side. Place the thin section towards the tip and tail in the molded groove and push the two stands gently towards each other. This will secure the ski in an upright position. With no extra parts added and nothing to twist or adjust, it is cost effective, durable and easy to use.
A two-shot molding process replaces the need for separate parts. Super grippy EPDM rubber combined with the toughness of glass filled polyamide, give the opportunity to solve all desired functions. Iterations of engineering, prototyping and testing, result in a unibody design that checks all aesthetical and technical requirements. Mr. Grippy is designed for lightness and durability. The monocoque shape is inherently stiff. Carefully placed ribs on the underside and varying wall thickness enhance the weight/strength ratio.
