    Thank you for your videos. I’m 53 years old and have always wanted to learn to twirl. I guess I’m too old now, but it sure looks fun and I bet it would be great exercise. Really wish I had tried this.

    Some of the girls on my line don't like tennis grip tape as well. This season they've experimented with all kinds of grips and found that taking pieces of cotton and taping it down with electric tape has worked really well for them!

    I just got my 11 year old her first baton. It's a used baton and had lots of sticky tape residue before we re taped it... Some fabric softener on a paper towel will make the residue slide right off. If it is super tough the magic eraser finishes the job. Thank you for this video! We used gel grip tape for her baton. It's made for hammers, axes and lawn tools lol. Its a little thicker than the plain grip tape but not as thick as the tennis grip tape.

    Hey Kristen Schroeder! The purpose of grip tape is to obviously help you grip onto an object, in this case a baton. So the benefits of using grip tape include a better grip when tossing and catching, and even with rolls! If you are like me and sweat a lot, you will immediately notice the impact grip tape has on your twirling when you use it! Hope this answers your question!

    Thank you so mush for this video! I taped my baton with the Wilson's cushion grip tape and I LOVE it!! It is so much more comfortable and easier to twirl with!!

    hallo sister Abby, i like your tutorial very much😊... i'm from Indonesia. but in my country, the sport of baton twirling doesn't exist. baton twirling is so foreign for my country . I don't know why so? but for me baton is a very very fun tool to play ...i dont have a baton twirling...there's no market that sale this item, none!! so i use a thin bamboo instead near my school.. i'm a senior high school girl class 3. so i play my bamboo in my house, i follow all your tutorial, yes all your tutorial. starting from techniques using 4 fingers, 2 fingers and others. really fun. initially it felt difficult. but over time my fingers got used to it. the biggest obstacle is lies on my ring finger, so the bamboo is less able to twirl . however I keep practicing until sweat. thank you :)

    Really great video, grip tape will resolve one of the issues, but now the metal tip which holds the tips on is broke, do you know if that can be replaced? I can't find anything on fixing the broken metal tip in which the end rubbers tips fit on.

    So i twirl for my highschool marching band with two other girls and we march in like 40 degrees or below. would grip tape help us then? Our fingers are usually number so we can't feel the baton well. My keyboard is broken so sorry this isn't a more detailed question lol.

    Hi Abby! I just started baton. I was wondering... would duck tape be ok?

    • @randompeople5247
      @randompeople5247 8 років тому

      I've been twirling for 4 years now and I've seen girls with duck tape on their batons and it does not look good. To me it is unnecessary because it doesn't grip your batons. Try to get your hands on some baton grip tape. It's a little hard to find and its not on Amazon. I got mine at Scottys Sports Shop but that may be just in my area. I hope this helped.

    • @sjbeautydiysvlogs9848

      This is the tape I personally use. Wilson cushion. The other type that I recommend is wilson without the cushion. Just look in the tennis section at the sporting goods store.

      +Sarah Angus The yellow tape on her baton is most likely to make it more visible under bright lights and such. It might also anchor her grip tape in place.

      just me Roll tide where i twirl, our grip tape is tennis racket tape in the middle (which you can get at any sporting store) and the ends (on hers they’re yellow) it’s electrical tape which you can get st any store like walmart, target or a hardware store.
