VOLUME 63 ISSUE 32 AUGUST 11, 2026 P125 ODI RECOIL FULL-WAFFLE LOCK-ON GRIPS $30.95 www.odigrips.com ODI's Recoil grips lock on for simple installation without glue, and they come with model-specific throttle tubes with snap-on cams to fit most modern MX/SX bikes. The Recoils feature tapered "radial micro-ribs" where the thumb webbing and forefingers rest that elevate the hands slightly off the bar, reducing vibrations to the hands. The parallel layout allows for less friction, and the ribs—along with the waffle pattern—squish and compress for a glued-on grip feel. They come in four compounds: black, graphite, blue, red and orange (medium); gray soft (soft); gum rubber (tacky); and white pro-soft (ultra-soft). THOR MINI & YOUTH BLITZ XR BOOTS $129.95 Mini, $159.95 Youth www.thormx.com Thor's Blitz XR motocross boots now come in Youth and Mini versions. The Mini boots fit kids approximately ages 4 to 7, while the Youth boots are for ages 7 to 13 or smaller adults. The smaller boots have a two-buckle closure and are built without a toe cap, while the Youth boots have four buckles and include metal toe caps. The Youth boots also have injection-molded medial abrasion plates and a reinforced shifter overlay. Both are built with unidirectional outsoles, steel shank inserts, mesh liners and grippy synthetic-leather inner-leg panels.
