Default Flip handlebar grips

How do you guys flip the handlebar grips?

--I have tried for many hours and i cant seem to get then to turn around...Meaning that i have the inside of the handlegrip(soft surface) facing out and the GRIP inside.

Any suggestions?

They should have come right side out in the package. Are you trying to re-use grips that someone peeled off a pair of bars and got turned inside out? pics would definitely help.

Maybe they are Australian grips, and are just up-side down

They are toast. That settup was outlawed years ago.

Yes, i reused my old handlebar grips from my stock handlebar.

Sorry guys, but i couldnt take a picture. I kept trying and figured it out.... I got a ratchet and pulled down as hard as i could for about an hour until the grip flipped over.
