&quot;At first you notice the nubs on the Stomp Grips pressing into your legs and they feel weird. As you become used to the nubs, you still notice them but they inspire confidence. Finally you stop noticing them, and will never think about them again until you try to ride a bike without them!&quot;

&quot;If I owned this machine, the first modification I&#8217;d make would be to add a set of Stomp Grips to the tank, because you can hang off the beast until your ear drags. As good as the suspension is, traction between your outside knee and the tank quickly becomes the single most important factor in your level of confidence.&quot;

*- Red, White, and Buell trackdaymag.com racebike article:*
&quot;Complimenting the clip-ons and rearsets is a pair of Stomp Grips, made in sunny California.  Nothing is as terrifying as having your knee begin to slide across the gas tank as you hang off while slicing through a corner and with Stomp Grips, this simply isn&#8217;t going to happen.  We&#8217;ve used them on so many bikes now that we&#8217;re a little spooked when we ride one that doesn&#8217;t have them.  As you can imagine, we were shocked and upset to discover that Stomp Grips does not make a set specifically for the Buell XB series.  While they do offer Stomp Grip material in cut-to-fit sheets, our contact there was rather embarrassed that the Buell had been overlooked and is working with us to prototype a custom set!  It gives the TrackdayMag.com staff a warm fuzzy to know that we&#8217;ll have a hand in the creation of these parts.&quot;

&#8220;Just as Stomp Design claimed, the Traction Pads provided me with added grip when fully leaned over and helped to reduce fatigue by lessening the amount of energy needed to hold on while hanging way off the bike. It was most noticeable in long sweeping corners, like Willow&#8217;s turn two. The Stomp pads were the difference between crawling all over the bike in an attempt to hang off &#8211; and not fall off &#8211; and leaning off as far as I dared.&#8221;
Where the traction pads really excelled was in the leather wear department. All of the previous methods I have tried resulted in severe wear, and even holes, on the inside-knee-area of my leathers. These did nothing of the sort. After a full weekend of use, my leathers looked no worse for the wear and the Stomp pads provided as much grip as any leather-destroying methods I have tried in the past.&#8221;

------------------
&#8220;The new system works really, really well. It&#8217;s lasted through five days at the track so far on our YZ450F and hasn&#8217;t even thought about peeling yet. It looks like Stomp had finally perfected a great idea. The added traction reduced my arm-pump and increased control over the motorcycle &#8211; and for just $42!&#8221; 
*- Cycle News*

------------------

&#8220;On the track, the StompGrip yields so much traction that it actually takes some getting used to. In the area where it comes in contact with your boots, it is incredibly easy to grip onto, and we&#8217;ve found it actually requires less energy to hold on.&#8221; 
*- Transworld Motocross*

------------------

&#8220;We stuck a set on our CRF and then hit the track. Most of the older guys weren&#8217;t into the Mad Max look, yet realized an improvement in leg grip on the track. Clear in color, the Stomp Grip is not abrasive and we feel that it&#8217;s an improvement over standard grip tape simply because it won&#8217;t grind your boots into sawdust.&#8221; 
*- Dirt Bike Magazine*

------------------

&#8220;If you are a grip tape fanatic, you should condsider switching to StompGrip&#8217;s Traction Pad. It has a high-tech look and an even higher cohesion factor.&#8221;

The *Transworld Motocross* article that got us off to the races in 2002 with cut sheet material! This was before we made molds engineered for each part with rounded edges and got the material chemistry finalized.
