      Tbh thats not true. Read his book, Nadal says thats not true (he's left handed on and off the court). Also even if he was right handed because he is using his left hand in tennis it's strange that he grips it as if he is right handed cause the grooves in the grip are meant to align with the angle of your hand so changing which direction the grip spirals up the handle changes which hand should be holding the racquet. I'm not a hater just an informer lol

    • @brandoncfejeran
      @brandoncfejeran 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I’m a lefty and have definitely made that observation. I grip my over grip the lefty way, because I’m very princess and the pea when it comes to feeling my stick. Previously would even flip replacement grips around so I could wrap my sticks the lefty way, too, but not so anymore! Too much effort and unnecessary! :)

    The yo yo throw to unroll the grip is truly professionally done. The tip of the butt Cap wrap is doubled to produce a nobby end to hold on to while swinging and serving.

      Oh really? Maybe I'm just picky then.
      I'm right-handed and I wrap in the same direction as Rafa. One of my friends is left-handed, and he wraps his grip in the opposite direction. I thought it was normal to want the grooves in the grip to be aligned with your fingers.

Pretty cool how he uses that grip right out of the pack like everyone else, rather than some customized overwrap. Looks like Babolat VS Original (white).

"I'm left handed at tennis". Ps: that's the #1 left handed player in history I mean, who is right and who is wrong?, I would say Nadal is right but I would like to know what you all think, I'm trying the left wrap today I'll let you know about it, btw I'm the worst amateur from this game so idk if my experience would work.

    I thought extra grip tape would be towards the end. Usual there is excess tape that you need to cut with a scissor. Maybe he unravels, then measures each tape, then cuts it, and then puts back into his bag for the future, so he doesn't have to carry around a scissor.

    Why is Rafael using a right handed grip when he play with his left hand. I am also ambidextrous and can play equally well either hand in squash. So I wonder do I need to retain my right handed grip too when playing with my left hand. Maybe too tiresome to keep changing grip especially testing new racquets from sponsors. Besides he uses both hands for certain shots too.

  • @pikeykam
    @pikeykam 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He starts with the end part of the grip, non tapered ends. Folds over the end strip so the butt cap has a slightly thicker wrap and ends up with the tapered end at the top. This way no scissors to finish off and he probably likes the slightly thicker butt cap end for his extreme grip on his forehand

      @@johncharles2357 No you're right that Nadal didn't do that. He did it the standard way starting with the tapered end that had the sticky/taped part. But there is a video on TH-cam that shows how apparently many pros apply overwrap starting with the "end" (even, not tapered) part, folding/doubling it over, wrapping twice over the butt, then continuing with the wrap open as normal, and then finishing with the tapered end and then the piece of tape.
