Same System, Different Jobs
Gravity Grabber and Gravity Grabber Mini are built on the same core idea: store gear off the ground, without pinching or damaging it, in a clean and intentional way.
The difference isn’t quality or design philosophy — it’s what type of gear you’re storing and where you’re using it.
This guide breaks down where each product works best so it’s easy to choose the right one for your space and your gear.
Gravity Grabber: Best for Large, Long Gear
What Gravity Grabber Is Designed For
Gravity Grabber (the original) is designed to store larger gear that protrudes farther from the wall and needs more support.
It works best for:
-
skis
-
snowboards
-
larger skateboards or longboards
-
other long sports gear that benefits from wider support
Because these items are longer and heavier, they need a rack that:
-
supports weight evenly
-
avoids pinching tips
-
keeps gear stable and upright
Gravity Grabber is built specifically for that role.
Best Places to Use Gravity Grabber
Gravity Grabber is commonly used in:
-
garages
-
gear rooms
-
basements
-
ski rooms
-
apartments or condos with limited floor space
Anywhere you need to store large gear safely and keep walkways clear, Gravity Grabber works well.
Gravity Grabber Mini: Best for Smaller, Handle-Based Gear
What Gravity Grabber Mini Is Designed For
Gravity Grabber Mini brings the same design approach to smaller gear with handles up to 1.5 inches in diameter.
It’s ideal for items that are:
-
too small for full-size racks
-
awkward on hooks or pegs
-
constantly ending up on the floor
Common examples include:
-
fishing poles
-
hiking poles
-
paddle board paddles
-
hockey sticks
-
baseball bats
-
lacrosse sticks
-
brooms and mops
-
rakes and shovels
-
hand tools and heavier shop tools
If the handle fits comfortably and rests securely, the Mini is usually the right choice.
Best Places to Use Gravity Grabber Mini
Gravity Grabber Mini works especially well in:
-
garages
-
workshops
-
gear rooms
-
mudrooms
-
utility closets
-
inside the home where appearance matters
Its compact footprint makes it easier to place in tighter spaces where a larger rack would feel intrusive.
What Not to Store on the Mini
Gravity Grabber Mini is not intended for large gear like:
-
skis
-
snowboards
These items extend farther from the wall and require the wider support of the original Gravity Grabber. Using the correct size ensures gear stays stable and properly supported.
Using Both Together: A Complete Storage System
Many people use both products in the same space.
For example:
-
Gravity Grabber for skis and snowboards
-
Gravity Grabber Mini for sticks, paddles, and tools
This creates a clean, unified wall system where:
-
large gear and small gear each have a proper home
-
everything stays off the floor
-
storage adapts as seasons and activities change
The system grows with your gear instead of forcing compromises.
Choosing the Right One: A Simple Rule
If you’re deciding between the two, this guideline helps:
-
If it’s large and protrudes from the wall → Gravity Grabber
-
If it has a handle up to 1.5 inches → Gravity Grabber Mini
That distinction keeps gear secure and makes storage easier to use day to day.
Space, Aesthetics, and Everyday Use
Both products are designed to:
-
reduce clutter
-
keep gear visible and accessible
-
look intentional rather than industrial
The difference is scale. Gravity Grabber handles the big, seasonal items. The Mini handles the everyday gear that never had a good place before.
Together, they turn storage into a system instead of a collection of hooks.
FAQ: Gravity Grabber vs Gravity Grabber Mini
Can Gravity Grabber and the Mini be used on the same wall?
Yes. Many people combine them to store both large and small gear in one organized setup.
Is the Mini just a smaller version of Gravity Grabber?
Yes, but it’s purpose-built for smaller handled gear. It’s not meant to replace the original for skis or snowboards.
Can the Mini hold heavy tools?
Yes, as long as the handle fits within the size range and the item rests securely.
Do both products work year-round?
Yes. Both are designed for year-round organization, not seasonal use only.
Which one should I buy first?
If you store skis or snowboards, start with Gravity Grabber. If you’re organizing sticks, paddles, or tools, start with the Mini.
Two Sizes, One System
Gravity Grabber and Gravity Grabber Mini are designed to work together, not compete with each other.
Each one solves a different storage problem — and when used side by side, they create a flexible system that keeps gear protected, organized, and easy to manage all year long.
Choosing the right size for the right gear makes all the difference.
