The unique oval handle offers soft grip along with an ergonomic design to improve comfort and stability. Designed to spread the forces over a wide area of the hand to reduce the stress and impact, it is reminiscent of a Fischer style handle but with the benefit of being able to be used in either hand. The handle has also been designed so that your weight sits directly over the stick rather than being offset. This keeps the wrist and hand in a neutral position which helps reduces strain.
