The new Proline LGS handles look pretty nice. You might consider one of those

it is as good if not better than the old accurate premier, which was the best handle of all time

+1 Proline LGS. Lightweight, and super comfortable. Haven't used mine more than half a dozen times, but it still looks brand new. Proline definitely stepped it up this year.

I hated the proline LG, I had one for 3 months, and it twisted and gave me blood blisters all over my hands.

This is what I'm picking up in a little bit, it's incredible, you will NOT be dissapointed.

I hear you on the Proline LG

I bought that because my original Ronix One would tear my calluses on a 5 day Hboat trip.

I've switched back to the Ronix handle after about 5 uses of the LG because after 5 uses or so it now will tear my hands to a bloody pulp in about 30 minutes of riding in one set.

I have the LG too, and I'll agree with you, its not the greatest. However, the LGS is tons better than the LG.

I gotta finally throw my two cents in because other people have spoken up about it. I used an lg and the material around the handle got all bunched up and gave me terrible blisters after 2 sets. I got the A.R.I. handle from straightline and I love it because it's really stiff and never gives me blisters on those days when I ride all day.

BUY THE NEW PROLINE LGS. I got one for my bday and never had a handle so comfy and we put it thru maybe 15 hours worth of riding in 3 days. Looks brand new. I HIGHLY recommend it!

the ronix totem is awesome if you like a big handle.
and for small ones i recomend the liquid force watson. both are supper comfy.

Agreed on the proline being subpar quality in my experience. What type of thickness are you looking for in a new handle?

Rode a friends carbon fiber handle and loved it. Was actually a bit thicker. My current handle is a triangle shaped that came with my straight line set up. Also loved how light it was. So was thinking of a new handle. The current one has a big rip in the foam. It sinks but not sure why that matters.
