    Keep watching, it'll be back.
    We must train our minds to desire what the situation demands.

    Government is the great fiction, through which everybody endeavors to live at the expense of everybody else.

    Religion is fundamentally opposed to everything I hold in veneration--courage, clear thinking, honesty, fairness...and, above all, love of the truth.

    What straps were you looking at? I stressed my wrist after re-injuring an old injury/new sprain and used the 661 wrist wrap (old version). It held everything in place till it was strong again. If you want mine It's yours for free. PM me your shipping info.

    Otherwise, athletic tape bought at CVS does the same thing. Just wrap it tight.

    I saw those a week or two ago. It'll eventually cycle thru again. That is a good deal. I seriously considered a purchase but it didn't look like I could wear them with gloves so I opted not to. I've purchased these EVS wrist brace from Pricepoint and I can use them in conjunction with my Fox Bomber gloves. I've used them after going OTB and injuring my wrist and it helped stabilize them while I healed up. You can also use them to prevent or mitigate wrist injuries.

    The EVS wrist supports are great. I've used them for the last several years after injuring both wrists in a bad fall. I added extra plastic shims for even more support. Don't ride without them now...........

    I would disagree with just wrap it tight. Its very easy to cut off circulation. While I am commenting on taping wrists make sure you dont go to high up the arm or you will make it easier to break your arm, 2" past the wrist is all you need.
