Like one of the previous posts, i also use my mountain biking gloves for indoor rowing - they have a gel section which protects the hands a bit.
I also agree that not holding handles so hard helps, i have hurt my hands in the past (top of hand) from gripping too tightly.

If you introduced a height category where would the distinction begin? - what is tall, what is small? I am in the lightweight category, my parents handed me some good genes on the weight side of things, but i don't agree with being able to control my weight - i've been the same weight for over 20 ye...
