Friction is important for a gymnast in two ways. A gymnast's hold on the bars in not possible without sufficient friction between the hands and the bars. At the same time it is desired to decrease friction on the skin to keep hands from developing painful blisters and rips. Grips are used as a solution. Grip provides sufficient friction between its surface and the bar and reduces effect of friction on the hands. (MZJ)
