Common mistakes with grip installation
Avoid common grip installation mistakes—like loose wraps, uneven overlaps, and messy finishes—for better comfort, consistency, and a professional feel.
Key Points
- Wrap Too Loose: Causes bumps and blisters. Keep steady tension throughout.
- Overlap Too Thick: Increases grip size. Use narrow overlap for better feel and bevel definition.
- Inconsistent Overlap: Looks and feels uneven. Always keep the grip facing you and turn the racket, not your hand.
- Messy Finish: Cut the grip on the top side for a clean edge and tape in the same direction as the wrap.
