Hi, iv decided as i cant seem to find a towelgrip review in the form of Dink's other reviews i will make one, though this will take a while i know. Though im off to a slow start trying to get samples, as most companies are trying to get me to buy a roll and i dont want 10 rolls of badminton grip, so far only Ashaway have been very helpful Would anybody be interested in this review? i am thinking of basing the review on the following catagories: cushioning texture durablility fitting price? any other ideas?
thickness is nice to know... I couldn't care so much for "fitting", as far as I've tested it hardly varies. Also, if you get individual packs, Length is nice to know as well (for weird people like me who liek to wrap the grip up the shaft, yonex's towelgrips are i.e. way to short) But keep in mind, different colours feel differently, weird as it may sound
Great idea. I'd go for the categories you suggested and jerby's suggestion. It'll be great. What other towel grips are you looking for? I could see if I could get some for you.
i have emailed the following Hi qua Yehlex Victor (only have rolls) Ashaway Yonex Tactic Gosen Apacs Rsl Head Black - need to email green- have emailed awaiting reply red - have emailed and been denied/failed email blue- successful email Please tell me other brands that im missing
HiQua towel grip rolls are claimed to be made at the same OEM factory as Yonex towel grips and perhaps, other brands too. There might not be any difference between them except for the price..
I suggest you put the weight of the grip as well. As this can affect the balance point of the racket quite dramatically. Hope that helps and keep up the good work!
if you have sweaty hands then its good they dont last long depending on the amount of sweat you produce.
Good, I think I'd have felt a little stupid if it wasn't after posting that. Oh. I look forward to the review too.
i have a feeling it will take a good few months espcially on the durability side of things, i recieved Ashaways grip today and am just filling in the details into my table

Hmm the list seems quite empty. "A lot of companies dont sell towl grips because when you play with them the grip molds your hand fixtures , so it is harder to change your grip" I just thought that , the quote would be helpfull
