Dolfinos Cello Grip Foot
A new grippy rockstop from Switzerland has a very thin profile. It weighs 1.4 oz and is 3.5″ in diameter. .A rigid holder fits inside a polymer-based jacket, and is supposed to hold on any surface, including ice. Being in South Carolina, I don’t expect to be able to challenge this. Stay tuned for comments, as this is a new item here.

Black Hole
The Black Hole is a solid rubber disk that is concave on the bottom, tacky to the touch when clean, and sticks to most but not all (clean) floor surfaces. The cup for the tip is 5/8″ in diameter and 3/8″ deep which only matters if you keep a rubber tip over your sharp endpin tip. There is a hard plastic liner to protect sharp tips (like New Harmony’s) from piercing the rockstop. Remember to renew the tacky surface by a warm water wash when dirt and particles stuck to it prevent it from slipping.

Artino Round resonating endpin holder
Artino’s SP4W rockstop has a 3.5″ diameter round wood resonating chamber, 7/8″ tick with non-skid backing. The web strap extends from 24-43 inches with a loop on the end, and is detachable so the Artino can be used with or without strap. The cup that holds the endpin is plastic lined to prevent sharp tips from penetrating. If you keep a rubber tip over your endpin, be aware the cup is just over 5/8″ in diameter and only 2mm (less than 1/16″) deep. The effectiveness of the resonating chamber will vary with a room’s features and acoustic properties. Weight 2.3 ounces.

Stoppin
Stoppin is a clear rubber rockstop, 3″ square, has a concave tacky bottom to form a suction on most clean smooth surfaces. Also works on carpets. The top has a bubbled surface so you can easily adjust placement of your endpin. This is not a good choice if you have an extremely sharp tip as it will eventually puncture and penetrate the rubber.
Stoppin Small is half the size and half the price at $6.00 -
Vivacello endpin holder RED
Vivacello is a small 3″ plastic rockstop with 3 round rubber feet for grip and stability, whether used on smooth surface floors or carpets. Some people prefer the three points of contact with the floor instead of one round disk. The brass cup in the center is too small to accommodate large rubber caps (like New Harmony) but will fit smaller ones, or bare tips. RED in stock. Can be ordered in blue, purple, green, black, and yellow
