Grip thickness is personal and impacts racket feel and control.

🏆 Your #1 Takeaway

How should I choose the right grip thickness for my padel racket?

Grip thickness is a personal choice. Experiment with thinner and thicker grips to find what feels most comfortable and provides the best control for your style of play. Consider that thinner grips offer enhanced feel and wrist action, while thicker grips can reduce forearm tension and increase comfort. Try different options to discover your ideal grip thickness.

What Your Guru Thinks

This is quite insightful because the coach explains that grip thickness is really up to you. It's interesting to hear how even coaches change their grip based on whether they are teaching or playing competitively. You should definitely try different grip thicknesses to see what feels best for your game and helps you control the racket. Don't just copy what others do, experiment and find your own preference.
