Unlike tennis, padel rackets are sold in one grip size. You tune the handle with overgrips, which is why nearly every player has a roll in their bag.
How thick should it be?
Hold the racket in a continental grip, as if shaking hands with it. You should be able to fit the index finger of your other hand between your fingertips and the base of your thumb. Too thin and you will squeeze, which tires the forearm. Too thick and your wrist loses freedom on the volley.
Building it up
One overgrip is normal. Two is common for larger hands or anyone who likes a padded feel. Three is the practical limit. Wrap from the bottom of the handle upwards with a slight overlap, keep the tension even, and finish just below the throat. Most players remove the factory grip's plastic wrap but keep the grip itself underneath.
Which overgrip?
Tacky overgrips give a locked-in feel and suit dry hands. Absorbent overgrips suit players who sweat or play outdoors in summer. Both wear out; change them when the surface goes shiny or slippery, which for weekly players means every few weeks.
The wrist strap
Every racket we sell has a wrist strap. Wear it. It is a rule at most clubs, and it keeps the racket on your arm if it slips when you smash.
All our rackets take any standard padel overgrip. The handles measure roughly 130 to 135 mm, which is normal for adult rackets.
