Transparent rubber grip

I love the little helpful hint- "For more transparency, you can add some water inside the grip."

Does anyone know where to find a grip similar to the one at the below link

I cant seem to locate one in the U.S. This grip is very light only 14 grams and is very tacky.

Thanks for your help

You might want to patronize our friends north of the border (Canada):

These are a silicone-based grip (vs. the vulcanized rubber you'd find in a Cyclone grip), and is quite tacky. I like this grip -- it doesn't get sticky, is not affected by temperature, and is very durable (i.e. you can roll these on and off every night, and they won't tear like the vulcanized rubber grips will).

You might also try posting your question in the "Carom Billiards" forum:

Well, how about greyghost's idea of using Penrose tubing:

(If you'll scroll down in that thread, you'll see more posts/pictures on this topic.)

You can get Penrose tubing at any surgical supply house, and a Google search turns up a ton of 'em.

Hope this is additionally helpful,
