How do you put an overgrip on your padel racket?

An overgrip provides more grip and comfort to your padel racket, but how do you wrap the grip around the handle correctly? Justpadel.nl will explain this in this blog.

First, place the starting point of your overgrip at the starting point of your handle. Then place your finger there and turn it one full turn around the bottom of the handle. Next, slowly turn the overgrip diagonally upwards. Make sure that the overgrip continues to overlap and that you can no longer see the base grip underneath. Once you reach the top of the handle, cut the overgrip diagonally so that it is flush with the end of the handle. Once that is done, you can finish it off neatly by twisting the plastic adhesive strip that comes with it at the top of the handle.

Left-handed or right-handed?

When applying your overgrip, you need to take into account your preferred playing style when playing padel. 

Right-handedplayers should hold the padel racket upside down and twist the overgrip to the right.

Left-handedplayers should hold the padel racket upside down and wrap the overgrip clockwise.
