Frequently asked questions

What is Jiu Jitsu finger tape, and how do you use it?

Sticky Grips Jiu Jitsu finger tape is a specialised adhesive tape designed to support and protect your fingers during grappling and martial arts activities. It provides stability to injured or vulnerable joints, prevents abrasions, and enhances your grip strength.

How should you apply Jiu Jitsu finger tape?

The X-taping method is a popular way to protect your fingers during grappling, helping prevent injuries and supporting the joints.

Here’s how to do it:
1. Anchor the tape around the base of your finger.
2. Wrap the tape diagonally across the top of your finger joint, forming the first part of the X.
3. Cross it over the underside of the joint in the opposite direction, completing the X shape over your knuckle.
4. Finish by wrapping the tape once around the base again to secure it.

This method supports the joint on both sides and helps prevent your fingers from bending awkwardly during grips and rolls.

Is Sticky Grips finger tape good for sensitive skin?

Yes, Sticky Grips Jiu Jitsu finger tape is made with medical-grade adhesive that is hypoallergenic and gentle on your skin. It's perfect for individuals with sensitive skin and has been lab-tested for safety and efficacy.
