This is also a concern of mine! There is nothing "sticky" holding the grip to the club, so it could slip, although I was unable to twist or slide the grips even a little bit. I played a fairly wet round last weekend, and had no problems. We'll see how it works when it gets hot and humid. Also, my old grips came off very clean (had to cut them - they were old and stuck on pretty tight), so I just left the old grip tape on there. There's a little stickyness holding things in place on most of them, but even the ones that had just masking tape were tight.
I did find one downside to this method. I tried 2 wraps of tape on one club and after a couple days decided to switch back to one wrap. I had to use a different grip because, although tight, it seemed to stretch out just a little and I could twist it just a bit.
