Does anyone else have the problem of the latex of the blue gloves getting stuck in the friction hitch after a little wear?

My biggest problem is that most of the gloves dont fit me between thumbe and pointer finger. I find I fatigue fast fighting the fabric. The gold ones streach out enough so they work.

It occurs with some frequency, I figure it means I'm not finesseing the V.T. properly.

Not as much as I used to, learned to have a lite touch. That's one benefit to the thinner wonder gloves, you dont catch 'em.

I always wash em first, to soften em up and get rid of some of the stickyness.

Yeah I seem to have the same problem. I just started using the v.t. after reading all the encouraging posts on its benefits, and the amount of times the gloves get piched has decreased. I use the "ugly gloves" by the way.

Does anyone like to use the atlas gloves? If so, what is your opinon on them?

Thats all we use, Atlas blue, the greys are insulated but not as grippy on the lines. I buy about a dozen a month for the crew. I get them for 2.70/pr in Seattle and 3.00 in Redmond.
