In artistic gymnastics, every detail often makes the difference between a clean execution and a sloppy dismount. In addition to technique, training, and body tension, the right equipment also plays a crucial role – and this is where MoonKing Sports sports tape comes in. Developed by active gymnasts for gymnastics , it precisely meets the requirements that traditional sports tape often fails to meet.

What makes good sports tape in gymnastics?

Unlike in many other sports, where tape is primarily used to stabilize injuries or to protect joints subject to heavy strain, tape in artistic gymnastics has a multifaceted function:

• It protects the skin from friction – for example on rings, horizontal bars or uneven bars.

• It is used for the targeted stabilization of fingers, wrists or ankles.

• It must accompany movements, not block them – especially with dynamic elements.

• And it must adhere securely , even in the presence of sweat, magnesium residues or high levels of stress.

Many commercially available sports tapes meet some of these requirements – but rarely all at once. This is precisely where MoonKing Sports Tape comes in.

Special features of the MoonKing sports tape

Our tape was developed specifically for the demands of gymnastics and tested and optimized in close collaboration with active athletes. What makes it special:

✅ Inelastic, but still flexible

The tape is made of tear-resistant cotton with a slightly flexible structure. This provides reliable stability without completely blocking the joint. Perfect for gymnasts who need stability and control.

✅ Extremely strong zinc oxide adhesive

The tape stays where it belongs – even under high forces during flight or extreme stress during push-off. Even on hot days or during strenuous training, nothing slips.

✅ Perfect for every training phase

Whether take-off , flight phase or landing – the tape accompanies every movement and offers protection and support without being restrictive.

✅ Also suitable as skin protection and strap replacement

Especially on equipment like uneven bars, rings, or high bars , where high friction occurs, the tape can be applied as a protective layer over the skin. It helps prevent blisters , minimize friction, and better distribute the load.

What makes it different from conventional tapes?

Most standard tapes on the market were either developed for contact sports (such as football or handball) or originate from the medical field. They are often:

• too rigid , which restricts gymnasts' movements

• not sweat-resistant enough , which leads to rapid detachment

• too thick or too thin , which reduces wearing comfort

• not skin-friendly enough , especially with frequent use

The MoonKing sports tape was specifically designed with these weaknesses in mind – for real gymnasts and their real challenges.
