MP23 and yellow grip ZF2 is my personal style of long grip; wrap up until almost the end of cone and end with the adhesive.
Blue grip ZF2 is just normal short grip; I add small portion of duct tape to end of Yonex tape to keep it down.

If I were your stringer I would donate you a fresh grip.

Is it just the lust or do you really break strings that often?;)

Lust:).

And it means I don't have to restring for restored tension every two weeks. Mind you, there have been a couple of sessions where I've broke two... had to drive home in the middle of one of them to restring!

You are actually married with GOSEN, right? Which string? You must be a bad guy that no one borrowed you a racket. ;) I would borrow you one. ;)

I'm with the Gosen, but I'm cheating with BG80 at the mo.

And the next highest tension at my club is 24 - I just get a mental block trying to play that loose these days... machine's fault.
 
I understand your dilemma. Before I must play something which is 6-7lbs lower than my go-to, I would drive home, too

how do you do it without tape? for the first two?
 
Did you guys remove the original grip then left the wood itself and replace it with a new grip or plainly overgrip the original one?

depends on how think you want your grip. While i used overgrip tapes i left the factory grip on and just wrapped my overgrip over it. but some do 2 layers of overgrip on bare wood or even one. depends on your preferance
 
Towel grip on my Li-Ning Flame N55 II

I like gripping up to the cone since I'm a doubles player. Just the usual "Korean style" grip on my Li-Ning Flame N55 II. I prefer using towel grip rolls now. ;)

Removed the original grip. Placed a layer of athletic tape on bare wood then wrapped it up with towel. Plus multiple layers of thin stripped athletic tape on the racket's butt. :)

What is the point of the athletic tape?

Only avoid the grip on the wood or is there something else?
