personally, i don't need a grip that grippy as i played more and realized, because my hands are pretty dry. the G09 is probably the grippiest overgrip ever, and the gamma supreme (i think) is a close second on grip. because of my dry hands, i still find the yonex over grap the best between comfort and grip. and i do change out my grip every 3 weeks for sanitary reasons, so i'm not too worry about longevity of the grip itself. obvious i'm an idiot and am too impatient to read all the posts prior to posting, please read the following post right below this one.
after reading this i realized two things: 1. i should read all the option of grips before buying 2. because your product is great and your service is even better, so i will try the G11 since it's close to super grap which i looooove!
Eric, the new thick heavy version of towel grip, does it still have the "dry quicker than other brand" property?
i am a big doofus. after going onto Eric's ebay store and checking out the pictures, i realized that i actually got a free G11 grip in pink that i have used and love. so yes, now i can say for sure that it is probably one of the best grip i've used and a perfect balance for me between grip, comfort, and longevity! will order more now, woohoo!
After reading this thread, I decided to try the G11 and already ordered from Eric through Ebay and hope to receive it soon to test it out. Thanks Eric for the great response and fast delivery!
I think I have about 40 G09s and they're fantastic! I actually give them out sometimes. I recently found a few G11s sitting in my bag of grips so I decided to try it out and at first application they're possibly even better than G09. I tried my friend's Super Grap, and it felt dry and I would imagine it would easily slip out of your hand after a few hours from all the sweat. There was also a lot of wear on the Super Grap, which I didn't think was even possible. As for the G09s I've been using, no sign of wear at all, except the dirt getting picked up on it. I mus commend Eric, and RKEP for developing such a fantastic grip, truly second to none.
^ totally truly wholeheartedly agree... although @Squash Eric , can you get better finishing tape? The ones from 2 yrs ago was much better than the current batch, which doesn't stretch nicely and doesn't remain adhered.
Been using G09 and G11... I would love the G11 if it comes without the breathing holes... Any chance Eric?
