Full grip \/ Replacement grip\nb. Towel grip\nc. Overgrip\nWhat size of\nbadminton grips\n do you need?\nWhat style of player you are?\nWhat level of tackyness\/dryness grip do you need?\nAnother aspect to look for is on all our Badminton Grip product pages, where we have 2 bars. 1 for durability, highlighting how long to expect the grip to last before needing replacement and stickyness, which is how much the grip itself holds to the skin of the hand when playing.\nAs a general guide see the grid below:\nGrip Type\nGrip Size Wanted\nTackyness \/ Dryness\nFull Grip\nMedium to X-Large (G3-G1)\nSuits Normal Sweat Level Players\nTowel Grip\nMedium to X-Large (G3-G1)\nSuits Sweaty Players\nOvergrip\nX-Small to Small (G4-G5)\nSuits Lower Level Sweat Players\nWhat Type of Grips are there:\na. Full Grip:\nThis is used by players who generally only want 1 major grip on their racket. It's usually fitted straight from the wood of the handle.\nTypically this grip is made from PU or Polyurethane. This kind of grip actions as both a tacky high grip and with cushioning between your fingers on the handle, providing extra shock absorbion.\nb. Towel Grip:\nLike a full grip its usually used for players only wanting 1 major grip on their racket, it's also the thickest of the 3 types of badminton grip. Towel grip is designed for players who's hands get particularly sweaty during play and find the other styles of grip get loose because they're not designed to absorb the sweat.\nPlease note, if you intend to buy towel grip, you will want to also purchase grip powder.\nTowel Grip is typically made of cotton\nc. Overgrip:\nUsed in 2 ways by players. Firstly, its a much thinner grip than the other 2 versions. Some players prefer overgrip on it's own, to enable a small racket grip for racket manoeuvrability when playing, however most players use overgrip as it's original intention, which is to go over a traditional full grip and thicken the size of the racket handle.\nTypically badminton overgrip is designed to be particularly tacky and sticky. It's also generally the cheapest grip available, and is used by many of the top players to tweak how they like to hold their badminton racket.\nUsually an overgrip wrapped on a wood surface of the handle by itself is considered too thin for players.\nWhat Style of Player you are?\nPower Attacking –\nUsually suits a thicker grip, as players with this style generally hold their racket handles tighter to force powerful shots\nSpeed, Control & Deception\n– Players with this style will prefer a thinner grip to enhance control over the racket head for quick changes of racket head position. It also enables a quicker changing of grip from forehand to backhand.\nFor a further breakdown, see the table below:\nPower Attacking Style\nShots Played\nJump Smash, Drives, Attacking Overhead Shots, Net Push\nGrip Size\nThicker Grips so you can hold the handle tightly for big smashes\nGrip Weight\nFor more power you'll want the racket head to be heavier than racket handle, enabling more momentum in the swing\nSuggested Setups\n- Original Racket Grip + Towel Overgrip - Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip + Overgrip\nSpeed, Control & Deception Playing Style\nShots Played\nDrop Shots, Net Play, Deceptive Shots, Overhead Clears\nGrip Size\nThinner Grips for finger flexibility & accuracy of technique\nGrip Weight\nFor more control you'll want the racket handle to be heavier than racket head.\nSuggested Setups\n- Original Racket Grip + Overgrip - Towel Grip only - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip\nWhat size of Badminton Grip do you need?\nA small badminton grip will provide greater control, whilst typically speaking a bigger grip will allow the player more power. This is obviously subjective according to the size of the players hand themselves.\nIt's important to remember you can layer up your handle to the desired grip size as much as you want. You can also purchase grip cushioning to layer up the whole grip or certain areas. For example a number of players tweak the end of their grips to be much wider for extra overhead shot power and control with the little finger.\nBelow are the various grip sizes used by players. Typically Racket grip sizes are G4 and G5, as grips can always be layered up to be bigger.\nGrip Size\nRacket Grip Size\nPlayer Size\nSize in mm\nExtra Small\nG5\nChild \/ Teenager\n83mm\nSmall\nG4\nTeenager \/ Smaller Player\n86mm\nMedium\nG3\nAverage Sized Player\n89mm\nLarge\nG2\nLarge Player\n92mm\nExtra Large\nG1\nVery Larger Player\n95mm\nWhat level of tackyness\/dryness grip do you need?\nThis is very subjective, and down to personal preference.\nOther Tips and Advice\n- Remember grips need regular replacement, try and get a grip setup in place, where you only have to replace the outer layer, otherwise it can become more costly\n- Try multiple sizes of grips to see what's right for you\n- Not all players are the same, there's even some top pros that grip right up to the middle of the racket stem!\n- See video below demonstrating how to have the correct racket grip for badminton:\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?time_continue=28&v=2cnbHARo8nI\n- See video below for how to grip your Badminton Grip properly:\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZPVFuxSr6_o","attrs_markdown":"[Skip to content](https:\/\/badmintonhq.co.uk\/pages\/badminton-grips-buying-guide#MainContent)\n\n## Your cart is empty\n[Continue shopping](https:\/\/badmintonhq.co.uk\/collections\/all)\n\nHave an account?\n\n[Log in](https:\/\/badmintonhq.co.uk\/customer_authentication\/redirect?locale=en&region_country=GB) to check out faster.\n## Your basket:\n## Subtotal:\n£0.00 GBP\n\nTax included.

Overgrip\n\n- What size of [badminton grips](https:\/\/badmintonhq.co.uk\/collections\/badminton-grips \"Badminton Grips and Overgrips\") do you need?\n- What style of player you are?\n- What level of tackyness\/dryness grip do you need?\n\n![Applying new grip to a racket](https:\/\/sfycdn.speedsize.com\/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/9407\/1890\/files\/grip-wrapping_480x480.jpg?v=1561988321)\n\nAnother aspect to look for is on all our Badminton Grip product pages, where we have 2 bars. 1 for durability, highlighting how long to expect the grip to last before needing replacement and stickyness, which is how much the grip itself holds to the skin of the hand when playing.\n\nAs a general guide see the grid below:\n\n|   |   |   |\n|---|---|---|\n| **Grip Type** | **Grip Size Wanted** | **Tackyness \/ Dryness** |\n| Full Grip | Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) | Suits Normal Sweat Level Players |\n| Towel Grip | Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) | Suits Sweaty Players |\n| Overgrip | X-Small to Small (G4-G5) | Suits Lower Level Sweat Players |\n\n**What Type of Grips are there:**\n\na. Full Grip:\n\nThis is used by players who generally only want 1 major grip on their racket. It's usually fitted straight from the wood of the handle.\n\nTypically this grip is made from PU or Polyurethane. This kind of grip actions as both a tacky high grip and with cushioning between your fingers on the handle, providing extra shock absorbion.\n\nb. Towel Grip:\n\nLike a full grip its usually used for players only wanting 1 major grip on their racket, it's also the thickest of the 3 types of badminton grip. Towel grip is designed for players who's hands get particularly sweaty during play and find the other styles of grip get loose because they're not designed to absorb the sweat.\n\nPlease note, if you intend to buy towel grip, you will want to also purchase grip powder.\n\nTowel Grip is typically made of cotton\n\n![](https:\/\/sfycdn.speedsize.com\/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/9407\/1890\/files\/towel-grip-wrapping_480x480.jpg?v=1561988525)\n\nc. Overgrip:  \n Used in 2 ways by players. Firstly, its a much thinner grip than the other 2 versions. Some players prefer overgrip on it's own, to enable a small racket grip for racket manoeuvrability when playing, however most players use overgrip as it's original intention, which is to go over a traditional full grip and thicken the size of the racket handle.\n\nTypically badminton overgrip is designed to be particularly tacky and sticky. It's also generally the cheapest grip available, and is used by many of the top players to tweak how they like to hold their badminton racket.\n\nUsually an overgrip wrapped on a wood surface of the handle by itself is considered too thin for players.\n\n![](https:\/\/sfycdn.speedsize.com\/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/9407\/1890\/files\/98d08907-1d77-4c8b-a158-83b3d514ee94_grande_0b8f70bd-27e3-470a-8b0d-af600efd7321_480x480.jpg?v=1561988722)\n\n**What Style of Player you are?**\n\n**Power Attacking –** Usually suits a thicker grip, as players with this style generally hold their racket handles tighter to force powerful shots\n\n**Speed, Control & Deception** – Players with this style will prefer a thinner grip to enhance control over the racket head for quick changes of racket head position. It also enables a quicker changing of grip from forehand to backhand.\n\nFor a further breakdown, see the table below:\n\n**Power Attacking Style**\n\n|   |   |\n|---|---|\n| Shots Played | Jump Smash, Drives, Attacking Overhead Shots, Net Push |\n| Grip Size | Thicker Grips so you can hold the handle tightly for big smashes |\n| Grip Weight | For more power you'll want the racket head to be heavier than racket handle, enabling more momentum in the swing |\n| Suggested Setups | \\- Original Racket Grip + Towel Overgrip - Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip + Overgrip |\n\n**Speed, Control & Deception Playing Style**\n\n|   |   |\n|---|---|\n| Shots Played | Drop Shots, Net Play, Deceptive Shots, Overhead Clears |\n| Grip Size | Thinner Grips for finger flexibility & accuracy of technique |\n| Grip Weight | For more control you'll want the racket handle to be heavier than racket head. |\n| Suggested Setups | \\- Original Racket Grip + Overgrip - Towel Grip only - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip |\n\n**What size of Badminton Grip do you need?**\n\nA small badminton grip will provide greater control, whilst typically speaking a bigger grip will allow the player more power. This is obviously subjective according to the size of the players hand themselves.\n\nIt's important to remember you can layer up your handle to the desired grip size as much as you want. You can also purchase grip cushioning to layer up the whole grip or certain areas. For example a number of players tweak the end of their grips to be much wider for extra overhead shot power and control with the little finger.\n\nBelow are the various grip sizes used by players. Typically Racket grip sizes are G4 and G5, as grips can always be layered up to be bigger.\n\n|   |   |   |   |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| **Grip Size** | **Racket Grip Size** | **Player Size** | **Size in mm** |\n| Extra Small | G5 | Child \/ Teenager | 83mm |\n| Small | G4 | Teenager \/ Smaller Player | 86mm |\n| Medium | G3 | Average Sized Player | 89mm |\n| Large | G2 | Large Player | 92mm |\n| Extra Large | G1 | Very Larger Player | 95mm |\n\n**What level of tackyness\/dryness grip do you need?**\n\nThis is very subjective, and down to personal preference.\n\n**Other Tips and Advice**\n\n\\- Remember grips need regular replacement, try and get a grip setup in place, where you only have to replace the outer layer, otherwise it can become more costly\n\n\\- Try multiple sizes of grips to see what's right for you\n\n\\- Not all players are the same, there's even some top pros that grip right up to the middle of the racket stem\\!\n\n\\- See video below demonstrating

Boilerpipe Text	Badminton Grips – there's loads to choose from, what are the key things to look for when choosing? Types of Grip: a. Full grip / Replacement grip b. Towel grip c. Overgrip What size of badminton grips do you need? What style of player you are? What level of tackyness/dryness grip do you need? Another aspect to look for is on all our Badminton Grip product pages, where we have 2 bars. 1 for durability, highlighting how long to expect the grip to last before needing replacement and stickyness, which is how much the grip itself holds to the skin of the hand when playing. As a general guide see the grid below: Grip Type Grip Size Wanted Tackyness / Dryness Full Grip Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) Suits Normal Sweat Level Players Towel Grip Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) Suits Sweaty Players Overgrip X-Small to Small (G4-G5) Suits Lower Level Sweat Players What Type of Grips are there: a. Full Grip: This is used by players who generally only want 1 major grip on their racket. It's usually fitted straight from the wood of the handle. Typically this grip is made from PU or Polyurethane. This kind of grip actions as both a tacky high grip and with cushioning between your fingers on the handle, providing extra shock absorbion. b. Towel Grip: Like a full grip its usually used for players only wanting 1 major grip on their racket, it's also the thickest of the 3 types of badminton grip.

Please note, if you intend to buy towel grip, you will want to also purchase grip powder. Towel Grip is typically made of cotton c. Overgrip: Used in 2 ways by players. Firstly, its a much thinner grip than the other 2 versions. Some players prefer overgrip on it's own, to enable a small racket grip for racket manoeuvrability when playing, however most players use overgrip as it's original intention, which is to go over a traditional full grip and thicken the size of the racket handle. Typically badminton overgrip is designed to be particularly tacky and sticky. It's also generally the cheapest grip available, and is used by many of the top players to tweak how they like to hold their badminton racket. Usually an overgrip wrapped on a wood surface of the handle by itself is considered too thin for players. What Style of Player you are? Power Attacking – Usually suits a thicker grip, as players with this style generally hold their racket handles tighter to force powerful shots Speed, Control & Deception – Players with this style will prefer a thinner grip to enhance control over the racket head for quick changes of racket head position. It also enables a quicker changing of grip from forehand to backhand. For a further breakdown, see the table below: Power Attacking Style Shots Played Jump Smash, Drives, Attacking Overhead Shots, Net Push Grip Size Thicker Grips so you can hold the handle tightly for big smashes Grip Weight For more power you'll want the racket head to be heavier than racket handle, enabling more momentum in the swing Suggested Setups - Original Racket Grip + Towel Overgrip - Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip + Overgrip Speed, Control & Deception Playing Style Shots Played Drop Shots, Net Play, Deceptive Shots, Overhead Clears Grip Size Thinner Grips for finger flexibility & accuracy of technique Grip Weight For more control you'll want the racket handle to be heavier than racket head. Suggested Setups - Original Racket Grip + Overgrip - Towel Grip only - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip What size of Badminton Grip do you need? A small badminton grip will provide greater control, whilst typically speaking a bigger grip will allow the player more power. This is obviously subjective according to the size of the players hand themselves. It's important to remember you can layer up your handle to the desired grip size as much as you want. You can also purchase grip cushioning to layer up the whole grip or certain areas. For example a number of players tweak the end of their grips to be much wider for extra overhead shot power and control with the little finger. Below are the various grip sizes used by players. Typically Racket grip sizes are G4 and G5, as grips can always be layered up to be bigger. Grip Size Racket Grip Size Player Size Size in mm Extra Small G5 Child / Teenager 83mm Small G4 Teenager / Smaller Player 86mm Medium G3 Average Sized Player 89mm Large G2 Large Player 92mm Extra Large G1 Very Larger Player 95mm What level of tackyness/dryness grip do you need? This is very subjective, and down to personal preference. Other Tips and Advice - Remember grips need regular replacement, try and get a grip setup in place, where you only have to replace the outer layer, otherwise it can become more costly - Try multiple sizes of grips to see what's right for you - Not all players are the same, there's even some top pros that grip right up to the middle of the racket stem! - See video below demonstrating how to have the correct racket grip for badminton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=28&v=2cnbHARo8nI - See video below for how to grip your Badminton Grip properly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPVFuxSr6_o

Types of Grip: a. Full grip / Replacement grip b. Towel grip c. Overgrip - What size of [badminton grips](https://badmintonhq.co.uk/collections/badminton-grips "Badminton Grips and Overgrips") do you need? - What style of player you are? - What level of tackyness/dryness grip do you need? ![Applying new grip to a racket](https://sfycdn.speedsize.com/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee/cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0020/9407/1890/files/grip-wrapping_480x480.jpg?v=1561988321) Another aspect to look for is on all our Badminton Grip product pages, where we have 2 bars. 1 for durability, highlighting how long to expect the grip to last before needing replacement and stickyness, which is how much the grip itself holds to the skin of the hand when playing. As a general guide see the grid below: \| \| \| \| \|---\|---\|---\| \| Grip Type \| Grip Size Wanted \| Tackyness / Dryness \| \| Full Grip \| Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) \| Suits Normal Sweat Level Players \| \| Towel Grip \| Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) \| Suits Sweaty Players \| \| Overgrip \| X-Small to Small (G4-G5) \| Suits Lower Level Sweat Players \| What Type of Grips are there: a. Full Grip: This is used by players who generally only want 1 major grip on their racket. It's usually fitted straight from the wood of the handle. Typically this grip is made from PU or Polyurethane. This kind of grip actions as both a tacky high grip and with cushioning between your fingers on the handle, providing extra shock absorbion. b. Towel Grip: Like a full grip its usually used for players only wanting 1 major grip on their racket, it's also the thickest of the 3 types of badminton grip. Towel grip is designed for players who's hands get particularly sweaty during play and find the other styles of grip get loose because they're not designed to absorb the sweat. Please note, if you intend to buy towel grip, you will want to also purchase grip powder. Towel Grip is typically made of cotton ![](https://sfycdn.speedsize.com/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee/cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0020/9407/1890/files/towel-grip-wrapping_480x480.jpg?v=1561988525) c. Overgrip: Used in 2 ways by players. Firstly, its a much thinner grip than the other 2 versions. Some players prefer overgrip on it's own, to enable a small racket grip for racket manoeuvrability when playing, however most players use overgrip as it's original intention, which is to go over a traditional full grip and thicken the size of the racket handle. Typically badminton overgrip is designed to be particularly tacky and sticky. It's also generally the cheapest grip available, and is used by many of the top players to tweak how they like to hold their badminton racket. Usually an overgrip wrapped on a wood surface of the handle by itself is considered too thin for players. ![](https://sfycdn.speedsize.com/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee/cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0020/9407/1890/files/98d08907-1d77-4c8b-a158-83b3d514ee94_grande_0b8f70bd-27e3-470a-8b0d-af600efd7321_480x480.jpg?v=1561988722) What Style of Player you are? Power Attacking – Usually suits a thicker grip, as players with this style generally hold their racket handles tighter to force powerful shots Speed, Control & Deception – Players with this style will prefer a thinner grip to enhance control over the racket head for quick changes of racket head position. It also enables a quicker changing of grip from forehand to backhand. For a further breakdown, see the table below: Power Attacking Style \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| Shots Played \| Jump Smash, Drives, Attacking Overhead Shots, Net Push \| \| Grip Size \| Thicker Grips so you can hold the handle tightly for big smashes \| \| Grip Weight \| For more power you'll want the racket head to be heavier than racket handle, enabling more momentum in the swing \| \| Suggested Setups \| \- Original Racket Grip + Towel Overgrip - Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip + Overgrip \| Speed, Control & Deception Playing Style \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| Shots Played \| Drop Shots, Net Play, Deceptive Shots, Overhead Clears \| \| Grip Size \| Thinner Grips for finger flexibility & accuracy of technique \| \| Grip Weight \| For more control you'll want the racket handle to be heavier than racket head. \| \| Suggested Setups \| \- Original Racket Grip + Overgrip - Towel Grip only - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip \| What size of Badminton Grip do you need? A small badminton grip will provide greater control, whilst typically speaking a bigger grip will allow the player more power. This is obviously subjective according to the size of the players hand themselves. It's important to remember you can layer up your handle to the desired grip size as much as you want. You can also purchase grip cushioning to layer up the whole grip or certain areas. For example a number of players tweak the end of their grips to be much wider for extra overhead shot power and control with the little finger. Below are the various grip sizes used by players. Typically Racket grip sizes are G4 and G5, as grips can always be layered up to be bigger. \| \| \| \| \| \|---\|---\|---\|---\| \| Grip Size \| Racket Grip Size \| Player Size \| Size in mm \| \| Extra Small \| G5 \| Child / Teenager \| 83mm \| \| Small \| G4 \| Teenager / Smaller Player \| 86mm \| \| Medium \| G3 \| Average Sized Player \| 89mm \| \| Large \| G2 \| Large Player \| 92mm \| \| Extra Large \| G1 \| Very Larger Player \| 95mm \| What level of tackyness/dryness grip do you need? This is very subjective, and down to personal preference. Other Tips and Advice \- Remember grips need regular replacement, try and get a grip setup in place, where you only have to replace the outer layer, otherwise it can become more costly \- Try multiple sizes of grips to see what's right for you \- Not all players are the same, there's even some top pros that grip right up to the middle of the racket stem\! \- See video below demonstrating how to have the correct racket grip for badminton: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=28&v=2cnbHARo8nI> \- See video below for how to grip your Badminton Grip properly: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPVFuxSr6_o> ## All of our flywalk ltd. sites -

Readable Markdown	Badminton Grips – there's loads to choose from, what are the key things to look for when choosing? Types of Grip: a. Full grip / Replacement grip b. Towel grip c. Overgrip - What size of [badminton grips](https://badmintonhq.co.uk/collections/badminton-grips "Badminton Grips and Overgrips") do you need? - What style of player you are? - What level of tackyness/dryness grip do you need? ![Applying new grip to a racket](https://sfycdn.speedsize.com/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee/cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0020/9407/1890/files/grip-wrapping_480x480.jpg?v=1561988321) Another aspect to look for is on all our Badminton Grip product pages, where we have 2 bars. 1 for durability, highlighting how long to expect the grip to last before needing replacement and stickyness, which is how much the grip itself holds to the skin of the hand when playing. As a general guide see the grid below: \| \| \| \| \|---\|---\|---\| \| Grip Type \| Grip Size Wanted \| Tackyness / Dryness \| \| Full Grip \| Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) \| Suits Normal Sweat Level Players \| \| Towel Grip \| Medium to X-Large (G3-G1) \| Suits Sweaty Players \| \| Overgrip \| X-Small to Small (G4-G5) \| Suits Lower Level Sweat Players \| What Type of Grips are there: a. Full Grip: This is used by players who generally only want 1 major grip on their racket. It's usually fitted straight from the wood of the handle. Typically this grip is made from PU or Polyurethane. This kind of grip actions as both a tacky high grip and with cushioning between your fingers on the handle, providing extra shock absorbion. b. Towel Grip: Like a full grip its usually used for players only wanting 1 major grip on their racket, it's also the thickest of the 3 types of badminton grip. Towel grip is designed for players who's hands get particularly sweaty during play and find the other styles of grip get loose because they're not designed to absorb the sweat. Please note, if you intend to buy towel grip, you will want to also purchase grip powder. Towel Grip is typically made of cotton ![](https://sfycdn.speedsize.com/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee/cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0020/9407/1890/files/towel-grip-wrapping_480x480.jpg?v=1561988525) c. Overgrip: Used in 2 ways by players. Firstly, its a much thinner grip than the other 2 versions. Some players prefer overgrip on it's own, to enable a small racket grip for racket manoeuvrability when playing, however most players use overgrip as it's original intention, which is to go over a traditional full grip and thicken the size of the racket handle. Typically badminton overgrip is designed to be particularly tacky and sticky. It's also generally the cheapest grip available, and is used by many of the top players to tweak how they like to hold their badminton racket. Usually an overgrip wrapped on a wood surface of the handle by itself is considered too thin for players. ![](https://sfycdn.speedsize.com/8140516e-7833-475e-b70f-6e943a98adee/cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0020/9407/1890/files/98d08907-1d77-4c8b-a158-83b3d514ee94_grande_0b8f70bd-27e3-470a-8b0d-af600efd7321_480x480.jpg?v=1561988722) What Style of Player you are? Power Attacking – Usually suits a thicker grip, as players with this style generally hold their racket handles tighter to force powerful shots Speed, Control & Deception – Players with this style will prefer a thinner grip to enhance control over the racket head for quick changes of racket head position. It also enables a quicker changing of grip from forehand to backhand. For a further breakdown, see the table below: Power Attacking Style \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| Shots Played \| Jump Smash, Drives, Attacking Overhead Shots, Net Push \| \| Grip Size \| Thicker Grips so you can hold the handle tightly for big smashes \| \| Grip Weight \| For more power you'll want the racket head to be heavier than racket handle, enabling more momentum in the swing \| \| Suggested Setups \| \- Original Racket Grip + Towel Overgrip - Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip + Overgrip \| Speed, Control & Deception Playing Style \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| Shots Played \| Drop Shots, Net Play, Deceptive Shots, Overhead Clears \| \| Grip Size \| Thinner Grips for finger flexibility & accuracy of technique \| \| Grip Weight \| For more control you'll want the racket handle to be heavier than racket head. \| \| Suggested Setups \| \- Original Racket Grip + Overgrip - Towel Grip only - For bigger hands – Original Racket Grip + Full Racket Grip \| What size of Badminton Grip do you need? A small badminton grip will provide greater control, whilst typically speaking a bigger grip will allow the player more power. This is obviously subjective according to the size of the players hand themselves. It's important to remember you can layer up your handle to the desired grip size as much as you want. You can also purchase grip cushioning to layer up the whole grip or certain areas. For example a number of players tweak the end of their grips to be much wider for extra overhead shot power and control with the little finger. Below are the various grip sizes used by players. Typically Racket grip sizes are G4 and G5, as grips can always be layered up to be bigger. \| \| \| \| \| \|---\|---\|---\|---\| \| Grip Size \| Racket Grip Size \| Player Size \| Size in mm \| \| Extra Small \| G5 \| Child / Teenager \| 83mm \| \| Small \| G4 \| Teenager / Smaller Player \| 86mm \| \| Medium \| G3 \| Average Sized Player \| 89mm \| \| Large \| G2 \| Large Player \| 92mm \| \| Extra Large \| G1 \| Very Larger Player \| 95mm \| What level of tackyness/dryness grip do you need? This is very subjective, and down to personal preference. Other Tips and Advice \- Remember grips need regular replacement, try and get a grip setup in place, where you only have to replace the outer layer, otherwise it can become more costly \- Try multiple sizes of grips to see what's right for you \- Not all players are the same, there's even some top pros that grip right up to the middle of the racket stem\! \- See video below demonstrating how to have the correct racket grip for badminton: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=28&v=2cnbHARo8nI> \- See video below for how to grip your Badminton Grip properly: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPVFuxSr6_o>
