KontrolFreek No-Slip Thumb Grips are now available on KontrolFreek.com. Thumb Grips are the perfect solution for gamers that need to improve or revive the grip of their controller for more comfort and control. Unlike KontrolFreek Performance Thumbsticks, which are more impactful at improving performance in competitive games like First Person Shooters, Thumb Grips can enhance your gaming experience while playing almost any game on any controller. Are you dusting off that Switch Pro controller to play Breath of the Wild before Tears of the Kingdom comes out? Or are you defending the galaxy from the empire in Jedi Fallen Order before Jedi Survivor comes out? KontrolFreek No-Slip Thumb Grips will enhance the look, comfort, and grip of any controller so that you can play at your best no matter what you play!

If you are curious about how to apply these amazing upgrades to your controller, we’ve got you covered. Upgrading your joysticks for more grip, comfort, and style is as easy as flip it, stick it, and grip it!

1. FLIP IT

To apply your KontrolFreek No-Slip Thumb Grip to any compatible controller joystick, first flip the thumb grip inside out. The easiest way to do this is with one finger from each hand. With the thumb grips upside down and the hole on top, place both fingers on opposite sides of the opening and use opposing force to flip the ridges around. If you’ve done this correctly, you should see the KontrolFreek logo inside the opening.

2. STICK IT

For the next step, place the controller you want to upgrade on a flat surface. Rest the inside out thumb grip directly on top of the analog stick you want to enhance. Use this opportunity to line up the logos however you like, as it will be harder to adjust once the thumb grips are secured to the joystick.

3. GRIP IT

Finally, to secure your No-Slip Thumb Grip to your controller, all you have to do is turn the Thumb Grip right side out again, while keeping it on top of the analog stick. Start with one edge and press it down until it slides around the underside of the joystick top. Then go around in a circle, pressing down the ridges of the Thumb Grip to secure around the joystick. Look underneath the joystick to ensure that the entire Thumb Grip is secured around the corners of the thumbstick. If done correctly, you should experience no slippage when applying force to or trying to rotate the thumbstick face!
