Gigagrip
9 Dry adhesion 8 Wet grip 8 Cushioning 6 Abrasion resistance
A studied combination of German latex and synthetic materials are the key to get an optimal contact with the ball.
An important factor, besides grip, is cushioning. Apart from the 4mm thick palm latex, it presents an inner 3mm foam layer in order to cushion the strength with which the ball arrives and minimize the impact against the hand during the most complicated blockings. -
Aqualove
8 Dry adhesion 9 Wet grip 9 Cushioning 5 Abrasion resistance
Over the basis of a Gigagrip latex are included two modifications so the palm performs better when wet. In one hand, the porosity of the latex is increased to absorb the water that carries the ball and minimise the aquaplanning risk when the glove and the ball get in contact. On the other hand, the thickness of the latex has also been increased to 4mm since a wet ball is always heavier and extra cushioning is needed.

Mediumsoft
8 Dry adhesion 9 Wet grip 9 Cushioning 5 Abrasion resistance
The basis of this mixed palm is a balanced distribution of natural and synthetic latex in order to get a perfect balance between grip and duration. The cushioning of the MediumSoft latex is barely altered in comparison to the elite palms since its lesser sponginess is compensated with an inner foam layer.

Hardground
8 Dry adhesion 9 Wet grip 9 Cushioning 5 Abrasion resistance
Synthetic latex is the main star of this palm. It increases the duration of the palm against the erosion caused by continued uses and washes. A small percentage of natural latex provides proper grip properties so the maximum security is guaranteed when blocking.
