That last comment is a bummer. I bought them pretty inexpensively(Should have been a tip off)
and the performance has been great in all conditions. I will find another grip in their line when that day comes. Their service and the little extra have earned my loyalty.
I assumed that they were discontinued when they were discounted so heavily. I picked up an extra full set just for that reason. I will most likely switch to the uTx after I run through the set I have and the back up behind set behind it.
