    Most popular, whether it is the best is up to you as the grips are separated by quality, rather by design such as thickness, tackiness, and softness.

    when do you anticipate you'll have the 117cm in stock and what colour do they come in?

    Wow these look great. Will definitely be placing an order soon.

    I'll also try spreading the word about this in the UK a bit, instead of everyone being a Yonex nobgobbler.

    Edit - Is there anywhere I can see a brochure of all available products?

    G08 does have a nice feel to it, and for that price. I am definitely not complaining. You should've ordered a variety to try all the over grips. I ordered G08, G09, G11 to try before designating a go-to RKEP over grip.

    G16 is exactly as mentioned by Eric. G08 with stitching to make the bulges to prevent slippage. Quite good.

    Good as in tacky?

    White feels the best to me, just the right tackiness.

    Black is least tacky. Red, dark blue next.

    Pink, green, gray, light blue very grippy. Pink was so grippy for me that it was almost pulling off skin from my hand when smashing. :eek:

    But when you say least tacky does it still have more grip than Yonex AC102?

    Black is less tacky and even harder "chewy" feel compared to Supergrap. That is the only one to avoid if possible. Red is ok but loses tackiness quite quickly.
