How to use overgrips

Gather Materials

  • Overgrip
  • Scissors (optional)
  • Finishing tape (included with the grip)

Prepare the Handle

  • Remove the old overgrip if necessary.
  • Make sure the handle is clean and dry.

Start Wrapping

  • Peel off backing from the overgrip.
  • If the overgrip is tapered with scissors, start with the thinner end at the bottom of the handle.
  • Begin wrapping from the butt cap (bottom) of the paddle handle at a slight angle.

Wrap Evenly

  • Overlap each wrap by about 1/8 inch to ensure full coverage.
  • Keep moderate tension on the grip as you wrap for a snug fit.

Finish at the Top

  • Once you reach the top of the handle, trim any excess grip if necessary.
  • Secure the end with the finishing tape provided.

Test the Grip

  • Hold your paddle and ensure the grip feels comfortable and secure.
