How to Get Better Grip On The Nimbus+

KontrolFreek Performance Grips fit like a glove on the Nimbus+ controller and will wick away any and all moisture that you face during marathon gaming sessions.


Picture this. You’re gaming away on your SteelSeries Nimbus+, catching all those Ws and absolutely crushing it. But suddenly, your hands start to feel a little sweaty and you begin to lose your grip on the controller. Just when you were about to hit your next target, your hands slip and your character bites it.

The solution: Performance Grips™ designed by our KontrolFreek family. The Xbox One and Series X|S Performance Grips fit like a glove on the Nimbus+ controller and will wick away any and all moisture that you face during marathon gaming sessions.

So just exactly how do Performance Grips give you more grip and less slip? Designed with a moisture-wicking combination of advanced proprietary materials, Performance Grips give gamers support and comfort no matter what controller you grind on. The honeycomb-stamped polymer outer layer maximizes grip while also allowing airflow, keeping hands cool. The foam cushioning layer creates a feel much like dense memory foam, conforming to your palm and providing more support and comfort the harder you game.

The key to getting the most use out of your Performance Grips is cleaning your controller prior to applying them. Once that step is complete, you will find that application is simple. See the full step-by-step guide. (Please note that the Nimbus+ Controller will follow the Xbox Controller guide.)
