Babolat tennis grips: for maximum control on court
With Babolat grips you get reliable quality that helps you make the most of every rally. They are known for their excellent grip, controlled feel and long lifespan. For players looking to add that extra bit of control to their racket, Babolat grips are a popular choice worldwide. Our selection includes a wide range of Babolat grips carefully tailored to different playing styles and preferences.
From intense competition to recreational tennis, the right grip makes a noticeable difference in how you experience a match. The materials used offer optimal adhesion to your hand even in hot or humid conditions. The combination of texture, comfort and durability makes Babolat a popular brand among players of all levels.
Base grips vs overgrips from Babolat
Babolat offers both base grips and overgrips, each with their own function. A base grip is the first layer directly on the racket handle. It provides cushioning, vibration absorption and a durable, comfortable hold. Models like the Syntec Pro combine excellent feedback with resilience and are widely used at the highest level.
Overgrips are thinner grips that you wrap over an existing grip. They allow you to easily improve tackiness or quickly restore smoothness. Ideal if you play frequently and lose grip quickly due to sweat or wear. The VS Original, for example, is known for its dry feel and direct feedback. Many players use both types of grips together for the optimal balance between feel and comfort.
Choose the right Babolat grip for your play style
Every player has their own preference when it comes to grip thickness, texture and moisture absorption. If you often play in hot or humid conditions, an overgrip with high sweat absorption, like some models in the Babolat collection, can make a big difference. If you're looking for more cushioning and a slightly thicker grip, then a solid base grip may suit your game better.
Your playing intensity also plays a role. Competitive players tend to replace their grips more often, while recreational players can sometimes go months with one layer. By experimenting with different models, you’ll find out what feels best. A good grip not only provides control but also boosts your confidence when hitting the ball.
When to replace your Babolat grip
How often you should replace your grip depends on how frequently and under what conditions you play. Overgrips can lose their tackiness after just a few intense sessions, while base grips last longer but still affect your feel when they wear out. If you play several times a week, then grips in a 3-pack or larger bundle are both cost-effective and practical.
Having a stock of grips ready in your bag helps you avoid worn-out grip issues during a match. Especially in muggy or rainy weather, or if you sweat a lot, changing overgrips more frequently is crucial to maintaining the same level of control.
Enhance your playing comfort with Babolat grips
A good grip does more than just hold your racket. Many Babolat grips are designed to quickly absorb moisture, reducing the risk of your hand slipping during play. This leads to more consistent shots and a more secure feel with every rally.
In addition, some grips help to better dampen vibrations. You’ll notice this especially on harder hits or mishit balls, as your arm remains more relaxed. This increases comfort and helps prevent injuries. By choosing a grip that suits your hand type and playing style, you can play with greater focus and ease, match after match.
