Anirban "Baan" Lahiri's played DragonSkin Grips to contribute to the Crushers' victory at the LIV Golf Chicago event
ORANGE COUNTY, CA – SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 – DRAGON GOLF, the creator of the innovative high-performance DragonSkin Grips, is excited to announce that their advanced "convex" golf grip featuring dragon scale technology was used by LIV Professional Anirban (Baan) Lahiri at the LIV Golf Chicago event, which took place from September 13 to September 15 at the Bolingbrook Golf Club.
The Crushers not only clinched the LIV Golf Chicago title but also secured the top seed for the upcoming LIV Dallas event. Baan plays the DragonSkin ORG, the Red Cap Fire Firm, in a 58 round for his driver and fairway woods. It is the go-to golf grip for professional players on the PGA, LIV, and LPGA Tours. They are engineered with a tacky TPE, the company’s proprietary technology. The inherently tacky nature of TPE ensures a stable golf grip while also offering a comfortable feel which reduces hand fatigue.
"We appreciate Baan’s support and usage of DragonSkin Grips. His success helps us to prove our innovative grip technology performs at the highest level possible," stated Dragon Golf CEO Marcy Kamoda. "We also congratulate Baan for his excellent performance in Chicago and to the Crushers for their victory and capturing the top seed.”
DragonSkin Grips represent a patented and tour-tested series of golf grips. This collection offers enhanced grip stability and accurate hand orientation for both the lead and trail hands, leading to a significant improvement in control and consistency.
DragonSkin Grips Convex Technology:
The Butt End Grip section of DragonSkin Grips boasts a convex protrusion that molds to the hand, offering an enhanced grip connection that boosts grip strength and prevents twisting upon impact. Additionally, it features a progressive ergonomic design that is larger for the lead hand and tapers down for the trail hand.
DragonSkin Dragon Scales Technology:
DragonSkin Grips are designed with dragon scale patterns to enhance palm traction. Employing 3D CAD technology, each segment is meticulously measured at 0.42mm in height at the top, with 0.38mm spaces between each raised section. The trapezoidal wedge shape of these sections also aids in preventing any slipping or twisting of the grip during impact. The lower section of the DragonSkin Grips was designed with an increased number of scales which run clockwise and counterclockwise to increase gripping power.
DragonGolf Grips come in two models: the Calm DragonSkin (Standard) with a Green Cap, perfect for golfers at any skill level, ensuring maximum control and a reliable grip; and the Fire DragonSkin (Firm) with a Red Cap, favored by PGA, LIV and LPGA Tour professionals. Available in both navy and black, they come in sizes 58 Rib, 58 Round, 60 Rib, 60 Round, and are priced at $17.99.
