Choose for your bar and your hand
Start with the bar used in your gym, whether chalk is permitted and your hand measurements. A grip intended for use with chalk is different from one designed for chalk-free use.
This documentary selection compares three PICSIL references from the Amazon.fr catalogue. It uses product information and manufacturer guidance; Wodball has not carried out a hands-on test. Linked sizes and colours identify exact variants rather than a size recommended for every reader.

Prices and offers come from the shared product catalogue. Size and variant can change the seller, price and delivery conditions. The products are not ranked by a measured performance score.
PICSIL RX three-hole grips: an option for chalk use
The selected reference is the orange three-hole RX in size XL. Compare it if you prefer finger holes to keep the grip in position and use chalk in your gym. Check the RX-specific sizing chart: XL is the linked variant, not a universal sizing recommendation.
Check finger-hole placement and palm length against the way you hold the bar. RX in the product name does not establish a required sporting level.
PICSIL Falcon: compare fit and grip shape
The selected Falcon Black G reference is described for use with chalk. Compare its shape and fit for your hanging movements and preferred grip.
G is a manufacturer-specific size designation, not a universal standard. Confirm the exact Amazon variant because listings may group different generations or shapes under similar names.
PICSIL Hawk: a chalk-free option
The Hawk Moonless G is the chalk-free reference in this selection. Examine it if your gym prohibits chalk or you specifically want that type of gripping surface.
This does not guarantee identical grip on every bar. Surface finish, condition and care instructions still matter. Check the manufacturer’s guidance for your equipment.
With or without finger holes?
Finger holes can help retain the grip between exercises. A design without holes comes away from the palm differently and may suit another transition preference. Choose according to shape, size and actual use rather than promises of automatically gaining repetitions.
If possible, try a correctly sized pair in your gym. The fastening should remain secure without requiring excessive wrist tightening. Incorrect sizing can interfere with the hold even when the material suits the bar.
Before buying
Check chalk requirements, measure your hand using this model’s sizing diagram, identify the bar or rings you use and confirm the ordered palm coverage and hole configuration. Follow model-specific care instructions; do not assume the grips are machine washable.
Which movements are they for?
Grips are commonly considered for pull-ups and muscle-ups. They do not replace learning the hold or developing technique. Ask a coach to explain positioning before using them in a long set.
Do not confuse palm grips with lifting straps for deadlifts or carries. Explore the gymnastics guide for the movement context.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need them for my first class? Not necessarily. Identify your movements, gym rules and where your grip limits the task first.
Will they prevent all irritation? No. Fit, care and training volume also matter. Palm coverage is not a reason to continue a problematic set.
Which of the three should I choose? Begin with chalk or chalk-free use, then compare shape and sizing. The linked variant identifies a product rather than prescribing your size.
