Great video! Keep it up 👍🏼
Thanks for the support Villiam!
What are your top 5 dry grip recommendations? I've been doing it all wrong! I live in Texas and my hands sweat like crazy! I've been using Tourrna Mega Tac. It's great for winter and indoor tennis. I need a great dry grip for summer! Thanks for posting the video.
Sorry just seeing this. If you live in TX (or any warm area) and you have sweaty hands, yes I would avoid tacky grips. Tourna is the blue print for dry grips. Luxilon started making a dry over grip a few years ago and it’s similar to Tourna but I still think Tourna is the way to go! Please let me know what you end up doing and how it goes. Thanks!
I like the white tourna. Last long
I just got the tacky grip and its not tacky? I was expecting it to be like, slightly sticky, but its just generic rubber grip.
Pro-tip: the Tourna grip you've shown actually has different levels of dryness vs tackiness on either side. So you can actually choose one or the other feel depending on your preference.
Thanks for that tip! So the tackiness is on the backside?
@@AceTennisReviews Actually I chose the wrong word in "tackiness" because dry/tacky is the commonly used dichotomy for overgrips. The opposite side of the tourna grip isn't tacky, but it is noticeably softer and more pleasing to the touch. Although it doesn't provide as much slip protection for all those sweaty handed freaks out there.
@@AMurderOfLobs Ahh yes... I understand. From my experience, both sides provide a dry feel although one side (back side) not as good as the main (front side). I have also seen some people use one side and then regroup using the other side! I tend to peel through the grip after a few uses so I just throw it out and then put a new one on.
@@AceTennisReviews Yeah I've gotten as many as 4 uses out of the same Tourna grip. After the first side, you can do the unexposed area of that same side (where it was overlapping and somewhat protecting itself) by wrapping it in reverse. The third time use is flipping it over to the backside, and the fourth use is the unexposed area of the backside. I don't like my grips to get grungy, so I don't use any given side for very like (~ 1 week) otherwise Tourna can break down as you noted.
Tourna Original ftw
