    Answer the following in order:

    #1: What specific grip do you use for most of your racquets?
    #2: How long does that grip last you?

    Right now i'm using a really thin babolat overgrip, it's amazing. It's really tacky, and get even more tacky when wet. It's by far better than the yonex supergrip. The grips also lasts quite a while(15-20 days of training), they get really dirty, but the tackiness is still there.

    used towels for a bit but gone back to Karakal super PU grips

    I put them over the original racket grip as i have too big hands for stock grip size and I find the karakal is the perfect thickness for me

    I use Karakal grips, either the PU super or the Duo.
    They tend to last me about a month if I'm lucky.
