Remember that grip quality affects your overall performance; that's why brands like Nox and Starvie are committed to technological advances in their products.

Tips to keep your grip always in top condition

Changing the overgrip regularly and cleaning the grip after each match are key habits. In addition, storing the racket in a suitable racket bag helps preserve the materials.

How do accessories help prevent injuries?

Using quality accessories not only improves grip, but also protects against common injuries such as epicondylitis or tendinitis. The right grip reduces tension in the forearm and wrist muscles.

• Anti-slip overgrips prevent sudden movements and unexpected slips.
• Choosing the right thickness and texture of the grip favors the ergonomics of the continental grip.

Brands such as Dunlop and Wilson offer accessories tested under the best playing conditions.

When is it advisable to renew grip accessories?

It is recommended to change the overgrip every 5-10 matches, depending on usage and sweat generated. If you notice a loss of grip or discomfort, it's time to renew it.
