A manual power grip for holding a cylindrical object using a relaxed index finger is described and analysed. In a group of 21 young adult students it provided greater grip strength than the conventional oblique power grip. It allowed a significant increase in the range of adduction-abduction at the wrist. In recent years it appears to have been empirically used by a number of top class racquet players and is the basis of the modern assault rifle grip. A new design of strain gauge dynamometer, in the shape of a cylinder, which permits the testing of a number of grip types and wrist positions is described. Standard grip testing protocol is used with this device which also allows the concomitant use of a goniometer for the assessment of wrist mobility.
