how do you wrap your grip

[mzheng168]

hi,

sorry for this newbie question, i just bought a new racket, the grip is too small so i want to put a new grip on. So do i just wrap the new one over the existing one comes with the racket or do i have to take the existing one off first and put the new one on?? thanks

well it really depends on what you like. if you want the grip bigger try wrapping the new one on without removing the old. i think removing the old grip and putting in a new one wouldn't make any difference in the grip size....although im not 100% sure.

usually i just add a grip on top though but thats what works for me

In this case, you're gonna have to experiment around a bit bro ....


The are various scenarios you could try, but you have to have lots of patience
to experiment around to find that perfect combo. ( like i did )

- Original grip ON + thick Replacement Grip
- Original grip ON + medium-thick Replacement Grip
- Original grip ON + thin Replacement Grip
- Original grip OFF + thick Replacement Grip
- Original grip OFF + medium-thick Replacement Grip
- Original grip OFF + thin Replacement Grip
- Original grip ON + thick Overgrip
- Original grip ON + medium-thick Overgrip
- Original grip ON + thin Overgrip
- Original grip OFF + thick Overgrip
- Original grip OFF + medium-thick Overgrip
- Original grip OFF + thin Overgrip


And the list goes on and on and on and on and .....

It will get frustrating at times, but when you get the perfect combo ....

Make it your signature, makes my day

i agree, some research and experimentation is best.

you can even try half grips like lin dan if you like.

mine is Ori grip on + karakal (thicker overlap bottom) + towel grip 1" just above the racket end up to the length of 1 hand of my grip (4-5")

BOOM! I'm the king of MY court (emphasis on me )

This is how every racket I own is wrapped
