If you're lucky enough to be playing this great game - you need this product! Why not give yourself - your kid - or your team every opportunity to succeed possible. This product WILL make a difference in the way you feel as a hitter - I guarantee it! Just use the Power Grip Wrap two to three times a week for 6 weeks. If you don't feel a noticeable difference in your swing - I'll buy it back. I am that confident in this product - keep reading to find out more about the Power Grip Wrap. Below is a video clip of how to setup and use the Power Grip Wrap. Here it is used with wiffle balls in soft toss drills from the side and the front. Train like you have never trained before - Get stronger! Hit it harder!

What is it? The Power Grip Wrap is an innovative, patent-pending baseball hitting trainer. Essentially, it is a wrap the puts two bats side by side, then, twisted at the handles to create an equally balanced tool to take your training to the next level.

Are there similar products out there? No, there’s nothing quite like it. Most products along these lines are NOT designed to use in actual contact with a baseball, tennis ball, or wiffle ball. This one is. Most bat weights are barrel based. Which means the weight is designed to fit over the barrel of the bat, which in turn produces a top-heavy bat. When you swing a bat with a weighted object at the barrel, more often than not, and especially for younger kids, that bat tends to swing the child. This produces more bad habits than good. The bat barrel tends to drop, dropping below the back shoulder, producing a sweeping, long swing.

What is it used for? The Power Grip Wrap, once loaded, uses two bats that have been perfectly balanced by the manufacturer. It wraps them safely together, and actually allows you to make contact with a moving ball. The product was designed to strengthen a player’s grip, while still maintaining the hitter’s swing mechanics. It also strengthens a hitter’s core, while offering immediate feedback at contact with the ball. It promotes swing fitness by developing over all balance before and after the swing.

 

 

Again, one of this product’s greatest attributes is what it teaches at contact with the ball. Many, if not all, professional hitting instructors stress when at contact with the ball, your top hand should be facing up toward the sky, and your bottom hand should be facing down toward the ground. This is called “palm up, palm down” at contact. When this product is properly used it promotes this concept (palm up and palm down at contact).

Setup to use this product correctly? Place both bat barrels on the ground in front of you. When done correctly you should look like a golfer setting up to strike a golf ball. Place the bat handle that is closest to the ground in your fingertips (in your fingers just before your fingers connect with your palm). Grip firmly and lift. Be sure not to grip the bats at the very end. We suggest griping the bats 1 and a half to two inches above the handles. Get in your hitting stance swing slowly and stop at contact. If you have gripped the Power Grip Wrap correctly, both bats should be available for contact. If both bats are available for contact you will be in the “palm up palm down” position, which will produce the best results when you’re looking to hit the ball hard.

What drills can be performed using the Power Grip Wrap? We recommend using the Power Grip Wrap in all Soft toss type drills. We promote a soft toss regimen of drills that I would be happy to email any user of the Power Grip Wrap. This regimen of drills will promote the type of bat speed require to hit the ball with authority. This product works - period. I have used it religiously with my team for the past few seasons. My teams have consistently out hit every team we have played. The Power Grip Wrap when used regularly will give you the advantage you need to put your team on top.

Instructions

Load bat one into one end of the Wrap
Load from the opposite end of Velcro strap. Hold wrap with one hand push bat in with the other. Push bat head to end of wrap.

Load bat two into the other end of the Wrap
Again load from opposite end of Velcro strap. Insert bat two into open slot. Hold wrap and first bat with one hand push with the other. Push bat head to end of wrap.

Hold bats side by side
Once the bats have been inserted hold unit in front of you. Hold one bat in each hand. Make sure one handle is higher then the other. Height difference in handles should be no more than one-knob height. See picture.

Twist at handles
While still holding one bat in each hand - twist. Once the full twist is complete handles should touch. Again - one knob handle will be higher than the other. Hold bats securely in this position - both bats touching.

Secure bat with strap
While holding bat handles together with one hand grab Velcro strap with other hand and secure (the Velcro strap should not be hanging). Make sure Velcro strap is sufficiently secure. Handles should be touching after strap is secured.

Get ready to use
Set both bat heads on the ground - this is the same setup a golfer uses to hit a golf ball. When bat heads are on the ground side by side the handles should be stacked one on top of the other. Place both hands on the handles.

Proper grip of the Power Grip Wrap
Put the bat closest to the ground in your fingertips. Ideally where you fingers connect with your palm. It does not matter which of the two bats is on the bottom. Grip the bat securely with both hands and lift.

Are you using the Power Grip Wrap correctly?
Check for the proper grip by slow motion swinging and stopping at where you would contact the ball - ideally in front of your front hip. While in this position the bats should be stacked on top of each other with both barrels facing the pitcher and directly available for contact.

Ideal contact point is the middle of both bats
Make sure both barrels are facing the pitcher at contact. With both barrels facing the pitcher at contact - top hand will be PALM UP and bottom hand will be PALM DOWN.
