    I'm looking for new grips to buy because the Yonex SuperGraps that i have just don't help.

    My hands sweat but not too much, but enough to make my supergrap slippery. So something pretty tacky would probably help.

    I'm just curious what people think about the Yonex TI grips

    What are the differences between these 3 grips? How are they? which should i get? thanks!

    If it is really a problem, try Wilson X-tra over grip for about $4~$5 per 3 pack. If you have too much money to spend, try YY Waterfit Grap.

    use tennis grip, it's the same. I dont like tennis grip myself because i dont like how it feels, but you might try it. Also, have you tried grip powder?

    Yes, get the Karakal PU Supergrip. It's ultra-tacky for the first few sessions. I've used mine on my mp40 for over 4 months.. still pretty good with excellent cushionning.

    The Yonex Titanium grips are terrible value for money
    Interesting colours - and that's all to it ;)

    i recently discovered some victor grips that are cheap, durable and tacky in my local shop in penang. so i did what most normal players would do, i emptied the owner of his entire stock of black grips. he did however say it was fine so i guess that's alright.

    but yeah, before that i was using the karakal pu super grip, can't got wrong with it, quality and value for money.
