Many sportsmen and sportspeople have trouble maintaining a solid grasp on specific sports equipment, including weightlifting equipment. David Greg Pope and James Pidhurney have developed a successful solution to address this problem, Chalkless, which they proudly presented to the Shark panel on the fifth episode of ABC's 'Shark Tank' Season 16.

The two presented their startup brand and discussed the potential for investment in their company in the hopes of gaining the support of at least one Shark.

What is Chalkless?

In contrast to conventional chalk or powder-based treatments, this revolutionary product's granular composition helps absorb gland oil and acts as a moisture-resistant layer, providing a long-lasting grip. It is incredibly simple to use and often comes in a shaker container.

Simply massage your palms together, sprinkle half a teaspoon of Chalkless over completely dry hands, then coat your fingers and wrists with the product.

Similarly, the removal procedure is quite simple and only requires soap and water. Even though your hands can have a coating of the sticky substance, it will disappear as soon as your body starts to create moisture and oils.

Who are the founders of Chalkless?

James, a coatings engineer, and Greg, a chemical engineer, came up with the concept for Chalkless during the COVID-19 outbreak from their own perspectives. To develop Chalkless, the team spent a few years testing and improving.

When they gave the completed product to their pals for various activities, including tennis, golf, and weightlifting, everyone was astounded by how successful it was. Chalkless Grip was established in early 2023 as a result.
