DGA Gel Straps

[snap7times]

Wow, the new DGA item in the Master's Cup players pack is awesome! Gel padded straps that work like the quad shocks but are a little more softer feeling. Havent put mine on my bag cuz i believe start to finish of a tournament in the same bag etc, but had the chance to caddy for a fellow on Team DGO, Justin, and loved the feel, wow so soft and nice... They look cool too..

Yeah the new DGA Straps are awesome. I used mine during the second and third round, so did the rest of the crew.

If they hold up they should be very nice straps. So far they are more comfortable, lighter, and offer more shock absorption than my quad shocks.

Can someone snap a foto of these? I can't find them anywhere on the intarwebs.

The masters cup am weekend seems to be the unraveling of DGA's new Product, the gel straps, that probably why no one can find them online... I am sure one of us will take a photo of it soon... or just make y'all swirm until we show up at BSF and show them off... hmmm what to do what to do...

Oh yeah, someone pass Sam a Bib, i think he gonna be drooling profusively now...

Are they freezer and microwave safe? :chinscratch:

[gwillim]

I think with the metal, you'd probably not want to put them in the microwave.

[snap7times]

okayyyy thread drift, back to the topic of the actual product ladies...

[snap7times]

wow, no one has anything to say about the straps? interesting, they were the hype at the tournament...

[Mystjava]

I'm wondering how they're are compare to the Quadshocks..
(how much, etc.. ) ;-)
They look nice.. almost as if someone was trying to slip my "soles" onto my shoulders. (phewww!)

[JMan]

You gel'in?

[Mystjava]

That's what it was that I was trying to think when I thought of the "soles" to "shoulders" ....

Are you gelling?

I once put a CE Banshee in the microwave for a few seconds on a dare. It came out with a hole in it. :slapface:

There will be plenty of them at BSF from the guys who got them, just ask for a sample run with them...

How are these Gel Straps holding up??

Haven't seen them up for sale anywhere.

[snap7times]

DGA was selling them at masters cup, I put mine up for raffle since i figured some other lucky person could benefit more from them and behold lady buzzz got them... I tried them out but the gel strap part is too high up and i didnt get the feel of them right where I wanted.... i felt that switching straps in middle of a season might not be a good idea... lets see what other people think..

[discgolforegon]

Well... i have further news to report about my straps... yeah they are starting to fall apart all over the place. Only have about 5-6 tourney rounds on them so far. not good. Good thing i didn't get rid of my quad shocks. :)

I did hear that they are still working on the design, so i think they will get it right and when they do I will be waiting to get mine.

[RonTheWhip]

sadly they don't hold up well. also, they are very thin and have a tendancy to get knotted and twisted during a round. I'll probably go back to me trusty phoenix straps that have held up for four years...

[topdawgy58]

I bought some and they started to come apart after a week of use. Good thing I can get my money back.
They are really poorly made. The seams started to come all apart. Maybe I got a bad apple but I do not think so.
I am going to stick to the Quad Staps.
