    there is no such thing as best, more like best suitable, grip choosing will take in consideration of the size of the handle, your hand and how much you sweat

    I haven't tried Kimony, but I can say that karakal is tackier than yonex 102.

    AC102EX Super Grap is the best I've tried so far; very tacky at the beginning.

    If you go with the Yonex Super Grap, get the white colour. The tackiness varies by colour. The lighter the colour, the more tackiness. I used to use the white myself, and several of my friends use the darker colours. The tackiness is so different, that they feel like completely different grips. If you don't like white grips, the light yellow is very tacky as well.

    I'm so glad you feel the same about this... I thought that it was just in my mind because I thought the yellow ones are much better than blue/black ones.

    I recently bought some Gamma Superior. Like it a lot, I think more tacky and keeps longer than Supergrap or Karakal or rkep that I used before...

    All the stalwarts of BC use and agree that RKEP grip is best .

    RKEP G10 is my favorite overgrip too. Very tacky and tackiness lasts much longer then with a Yonex Super Grap. As a bonus, it is very cheap compared to the Super Grap and dealing with Eric is just pure fun every single time.

    But is it the best or tackiest of all overgrips that are available? I don't know, I don't care.

    Agree with s_mair, I also like the RKEP G10 more tacky, lasting longer (not much) and cheaper. The "best" grip is personal, but i am sticking with these ones (or towel)
