Which power T's to buy?

[omad0n]

So I've decided to take the plunge myself and get the T's and see what they can do for my rock climbing. From all the positive results I've heard about I think it's a good investment, plus the fact that i LOVE pushups. Anyway I was wondering which kind to get. yes the Hammertone are a bit more expensive, but they provide a slightly different grip. I'm looking for whatever will maintain the highest level of difficulty over time. Even if that means dealing with slight grip issues. I figure, if I'm going to invest in them it would be nice to have something that provide me with the best workout. Yes I'm aware that either will do a fine job, but just curious to hear some opinions from those of you that own them, John included . Thanks in advance for any and all answers.

I have the original smooth finish version and I love them. They are slowly turning me into a pushup fan. (Just in time for JP's new book!) In addition to ramping up the intensity of a pushup, they are awesome for improving grip/hand strength.

Hey Omad,
I would have to echo what others have said here. I have added what Justin advised(plati-Dip on the handles and stilts) and it works great. There is no slippage from moisture, but the stablity challenge is still there, believe me! Lol! I'm going to buy another pair for my nephew for Christmas, and unless people come out of the woodwork now' REALLY(Lol!) talking up the newer finish, I will be getting the smooth finish.
Aloha,
Jim

Well it sounds like a pretty resounding yes to the orig. So I think i'll head that way.
