    i have to swap between supergrap and G09 in alternate basis..because here no shop is selling RKEP grip and i am kind lazy to stock it from eric :p. Feel from both overgrips moreless the same to me. dat's why sometime i like G09 and sometime i like YY supergrap. :confused::)

    I've been using RKEP G11's for about a month now and performance wise they last MUCH longer than Yonex Supergrap, also the tackiness remains quite good even after long usage.

    In terms of the colour comparisons, so far I've only used two, PURPLE and LIGHT BLUE. So far it seems that the purple one is doing better since it lasting longer while the light blue one is starting to wear out =P

    But overall at around $1 USD each, RKEP grips are a VERY GOOD deal

    So yea my Nitto tape arrived from MBS a few days back. Really fast shipping considering it came from abroad to the UK. Great stuff. Well pleased I bought it and at £1.77, you can't go wrong!

    Mwuahahaha! It's cool that the tape is quite slim, slimmer than my other electrical tape. So it's better suited to racket gripping even in that regard.

    Your post just reminded me of how sad I can be on these forums. We're here championing electrical tape! Lol. My GF is right, I am a badminton geek :p

    Just go to Poundland/B&M and get five rolls of electrical tape for a quid, then split them in half on a bandsaw = 10 rolls of grip end tape for a quid:D.

    Eric's orders usually take 10-14 days to get to me, for reference.

    got mine just now and I use it straight away :D

    the funny thing is, it seems Eric always read this thread
    the finishing tape is different than the one from my ultimate
    it has exactly same quality as the Yonex one
    it is not too stretchy, but the tape pretty sticky which exactly what it needs as finishing tape

    good job Eric :D

    Please, don't open up that can of worms. :rolleyes:

    Anyway, just ordered a whole bunch of Power Master grip from Eric, so it better be better than the disintegrating PU Super or I am coming after you guys with a roll of local store bought electrical tape and some foul language.

    I use the power master today on my Tpro
    it is not as tacky as ultimate (which is good for me), but it has more cushioning
    I like power master more than ultimate

    I think I will give the rest of my ultimates to my friends in Indonesia..
