Hey guys, I had a pair of 24" strangulator wrist wraps I loved and I ended up losing one and of course they are sold out on APT. I was wondering for those that have used them & other wraps, what is the closest type of wrap you've found comparable to the strangulators? I tried on some convicts and liked them ok but not as much as the strangulators. I have a pair of 36" ZRVs that I hate, as they do not provide near the support but because they are so springy to wrap them tight enough to get support, it's so tight it feels like it's going to crush my wrist and is distracting.
Any recommendations are appreciated

Well I dont have experience with strangulators, but I bought a pair of 80cm heavy wraps from EliteFTS and dont care for them much. They are almost TOO heavy. The other pair of wraps I have are short, old, wore out Inzers, so the difference between the two is so extreme. If you want something thatll cast, I guess the EliteFTS wraps might do the trick for you. If not, completely disregard my reply.

I'll sell you my 24" strangulators for 1000 dollars! They're pretty unique, I've never found any other wraps like them. I used to only use strangulators, but then I switched over to the 2XH APT's. I'm pretty sure those are discontinued as well, so I'm going to be sad when they finally die. I prefer strangulator knee wraps to anything else.

there's really nothing like the strangulator out there.
I'm trying to convince shelley (owner of Rhino Power Gear) to develop something close to it, she's got some stiffer material that'll be able to get very close that she's making into knee wraps right now.*Mods/CS will not, nor can they change your username, so don't ask*

Never tried the strangulators, but I do have Elite wraps and don't care for them much. I bought these http://www.liftinglarge.com/parallelbreakerswrist.aspx and have been very happy with them.

I currently have a pair of strangulator/convict hybrid wrist wraps. I absolutely love them, but the velcro is finally worn out after 2 years.
My Titan Titanium wrist wraps will be arriving in the mail today. I'll let ya know how they compare.RAW ELITE OR DIE

I vote these for stiff wraps: http://www.flexcart.com/members/elit...?m=PD&pid=3558
Have a pair and love them. Serious cast feeling if wrapped right but dont choke my hands white unless I want them to.445/365/525
