Customization
Customization simply means making your racquet fit your particular needs and playing style. There are three principal means to customize your racquet: Grip sizing and modification, Regripping and Weighting
Customization Techniques
Grip Sizing & Modification
We can build up or reduce the size of your grip, or even change its shape.
A too small grip can lead to tennis elbow. We can build up just the butt end of your grip to prevent the racquet from slipping out of your hand. We can make your grip rounder or flatter.
Regripping
Whether you use an overgrip or not, a leather grip provides a firm feel that gives you the feedback you need to know how you are striking the ball. It also facilitates faster grip changes, a must now that we no longer use a continental grip for all our strokes.
Weighting
We can add weight to your racquet to drive better balance or minimize shock to your arm. Adding weight to the handle of your racquet increases its overall weight without increasing its swingweight too much. Adding weight at the 2 and 10 o'clock positions on the hoop of the racquet can reduce the shock on your arm and add torsional stability to the racquet. And so on.
