Elite Tacky

This specific formula is optimized for cool weather, performing best at temperatures of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and warmer. If you are competing in extreme heat, you may find the consistency becomes too soft or runny for optimal stone loading.

Elite Tacky is made using a pine resin base. This provides the high-tack, adhesive quality necessary to secure a grip on heavy stones during strength events.

Because it is produced in small batches, the manufacturer can maintain tighter quality control over the consistency and adhesive strength of each jar compared to mass-produced alternatives.

It is specifically formulated for stone loading in strength competitions. While it provides a very strong grip, its high-tack nature is likely too aggressive and messy for standard barbell training or general gym use.

Store the jar in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Because it is resin-based, extreme heat can alter the texture, so keeping it in your gear bag in a climate-controlled area is ideal.
