It’s Not You and It’s Not Your Paddle

, , , , , , 0

It’s not you, and it’s not your paddle. It’s actually the weather that causes your erratic pickleball play! Or so it seems anyway.

Oddly, I couldn’t get comfortable with my Turbo MPP. The UDRIPPIN grip just felt extra tacky almost like tape or a weak adhesive. Maybe it’s the unusual Kona Low weather condition causing this feel. I only had my Draco as a backup so used that the rest of the session. Took a short bit to get adjusted but played more consistently with the Gherkin before an eventual rainout.

Restocking UDRIPPIN Over Grips

, , 0

So far, my preferred overgrip comes from UDRIPPIN. I haven’t tried a lot of other brands, maybe 4 or 5, but I like the combination of feel, price, and appearance of the overgrips from UD.

The Comfort Tour Grips would seem like the safest bet to use (and the burnt orange color really matches the color scheme of the BnB Loco). But I’m kinda liking the Pro Tour Grips a little more.

The Comfort Tour feels like it absorbs sweat, getting slippery. Maybe it’s just time to replace the overgrip (but there’s only neon orange available on UDRIPPIN.com). The Pro Tour grip, on the other hand, feels drier over the entire playing session although it’s not quite as soft as the Comfort Tour.

Either way, I need to restock on UDRIPPING overgrips.
