Types of Grips and Overgrips Installation

Key Points

• Base Grips:
  -Synthetic grips are soft, comfortable, and great for most players.
  -Leather grips offer sharper bevel feel, preferred by pros, but can cause blisters.
• Overgrips:
  -Add over your base grip for better feel, sweat absorption, and protection.
  -Synthetic overgrips are tacky and come in many styles.
  -Tournagrip (purple) is ideal for sweaty hands or humid conditions.
• How to Apply:
  -Remove old grip.
  -Start wrapping on the opposite side of where the base grip begins.
  -Keep even tension for a smooth finish.
  -Wrap and tape in the same direction to avoid it unraveling.
  -Left-handers may wrap in reverse for better feel.
