    I know very well put an overgrip, do not worry!

    It's just that I will like to put it as Lee Chong Wei.
    I do not speak very good English, but after what I understand, ants will make a video to put an overgrip like Lee Chong Wei. Do I understand?

    Obviously, if the video does not before tonight, I'll put the overgrip as I usually does.

    I'm a fan of Lee Chong Wei.

    Just a question here.. the little grip that u apply at near end of the racket butt is it a normal grip or what?:confused:

    It actually makes the grip neat though:p

    Thanks. It is definitely not rocket science. But believe me.. Many people don't know how to put on a grip on a racket handle. Feel free to put comments on the u tube site. Thanks

    very nicely done, I never realised that you could put on the grip ""backwards" but that makes sense in a way, thanks again.

    Excuse me, but seeing this video, I have many questions to ask yourself:

    At first you say: "That's Lee Chong Wei racket"
    Is it you who always put his overgrip?
    He put it exactly?

    How should I do to remove the original grip properly?
    Is Yonex rackets provided these players without grip?
    Is it possible to buy a racket without grip?
    The video is not high definition but as I understand, we must put the overgrip directly on the wood?
    What grip size LCW uses? G4?

    The last question: In the bottom of the handle, put a cut overgrip?
    The yellow thing with a tape, how should we put it (34 seconds)?

    In any case, THANK YOU VERY VERY VERY MUCH, I am very happy.

    Chong Wei or any other players put their own grip themselves. In fact that was his old racket. You remove yourself the original grip. All rackets come with it's original grip. Yes it is g4. It was recorded on IPhone. If you are willing to send me a HD camera I would be willing to record everything in HD.

    For HD, I say this because I was not on the overgrip was placed directly on the wood.

    I have another question that I forgot (I apologize for all these questions, I know I would not have to answer lots of questions but I'm a fan of Lee Chong Wei), the weight of the racket is 3U or 4U?

    How do we put the yellow overgrip in the bottom sleeve?

    You say that Lee Chong Wei makes his overgrip himself, but puts it exactly like you do in the video?

    Thanks for the trouble ants. With all the informations you gave, I had kinda figured it out and your video confirms it. It's the neat aspect of this method that's so pleasing. Gripping like LCW, LD, it's getting geeky and scary. I should be spending more time on court…
    Thank you again.
