Blue Planet SUPGrip Handle (For Installation) - $19.95
Blue Planet Surf offers the patented SUPGrip handle for installing in any SUP or over sized board that requires convenient and easy carrying. Developed for our own board line, the SUPGrip handle offers superior control and ease of use while not impacting the performance qualities of the board.
The SUPGrip is sold and distributed all over the world to SUP makers and enthusiasts.
Blue Planet Surf now offers an updated version of the SUPGrip handle that features a vent screw to allow your board to maintain homeostasis under temperature and pressure changes, as well as a molded rubber grip for maximum comfort and durability.
Please be sure to align the vent screw over the stringer of your board when installing so you vent both sides of your foam.
