Hi, my name is Carlo Cooper from Chicago. I’m the inventor behind Cooper Groove — a performance-grip technology I’ve been hand-building since 2015. I started with drummers, creating grooved sticks that helped players with arthritis, tendinitis, carpal tunnel, nerve issues, even cerebral palsy play with less pain and more control. The results were life-changing, and that pushed me to expand the same patented technology into baseball and golf.

Using the funds to set up my CNC shop for drumsticks and baseball bats. Also developing a Grip Wrap for tennis, pickle ball, etc. etc. gloves, golf grips, tool handles, etc. etc.

A few months ago, my production machine went down and stopped my income cold. I’ve been rebuilding ever since, and I’m almost back. This GoFundMe isn’t an emergency — it’s a final boost to restore my equipment so I can get these game-changing products back into people’s hands.

Cooper Groove is just me — one guy who’s spent ten years innovating grips that genuinely improve performance, connection, and hand health. Your support fuels a mission that helps real people feel and play better every single day.

Thank you for believing in what I’m building.
