wherein the loop is attached in an articulated manner to the grip with a ball and socket joint,

wherein ends of the loop are held in a receiving hole in the ball, and

wherein the ball is held with the capacity to turn and pivot in an insert that is fixed in a head of the grip.

2. The pole according to claim 1 , further comprising a stop that projects over an outer surface of the ball to limit a pivoting region of the ball.

3. The pole according to claim 1 , further comprising a projection at the head of the grip that engages a depression in the ball.

4. The pole according to claim 3 , wherein the depression is larger than a cross-sectional area of the projection.

5. The pole according to claim 3 , wherein the projection is a pin that projects out of the insert into the depression.

6. The pole according to claim 1 , wherein the ends of the loop are held in the receiving hole in the ball by a knot that lies on an end of the receiving hole.

7. A pole with a grip and a loop,

wherein the loop is attached in an articulated manner to the grip with a ball and socket joint, and

wherein the loop is attached to the ball in a region of a flattening of the ball, and

wherein the loop is attached to the ball using a screw that engages the ball.

8. The pole according to claim 7 , wherein ends of the loop are attached overlapping one another to the ball.

9. The pole according to claim 7 , further comprising a cover plate in which there is a hole whose diameter is smaller than that of the ball, and wherein side surfaces of the hole in the cover plate are conically tapering.

10. A grip for a sports pole, comprising:

a gripping element with an opening in a head thereof;

an insert in the opening of the head of the gripping element, the insert having a concave inner annular surface;

a ball that is attached to the insert, an exterior surface of the ball engaging the concave inner annular surface of the insert to hold the ball in the insert while permitting the ball to turn and pivot in the insert, the ball having a hole therein that is exposed to an exterior of the grip at the head of the gripping element; and

a loop with ends extending into the hole, the loop being secured to the ball and projecting from the head of the gripping element.
