Frequently Asked Questions
What size grip should I use for my pickleball paddle?
Pickleball paddle grips are typically smaller than tennis grips most fall in the 4" to 4 " circumference range. Choose a grip that allows a small gap between your fingertips and the heel of your hand when gripping the paddle. Adding an overgrip can increase the grip size by approximately 1/16".
How do I apply a pickleball replacement grip?
Start at the butt cap and wind the grip tightly up the handle in an overlapping spiral, keeping consistent tension throughout. Secure with the finishing tape at the top. Most grips include adhesive backing to help keep it in place during application.
Can I use a tennis overgrip on my pickleball paddle?
Yes tennis overgrips are compatible with pickleball paddles and are used by many players. They add a thin layer of cushion and improve sweat absorption on the handle. Popular options like Wilson Pro Overgrip work equally well on both tennis and pickleball equipment.
