I use a tennis grip.  I bought it from Vietnam.  It's thin and gets grippy when your hand sweats.  One roll can cover two rackets.

I tried badminton grip before and it worked fine. I think it can also be used for tennis.
I got it locally at
I bought the Yonex super grap. I bought the 3 pak but they also sell the single strip for much cheaper which I should've get because I didn't need  that many.

Get an over grip, not a replacement grip. Replacement grips have foam lining, and are just too thick. I also favour tabletennis or Butterfly grips as they are thinner.

Pretty soon it will be illegal though... that's modification of a blade after it has left the factory... Smile

No, grip and edge tape are OK.

It is probably a great idea, as everybody will quit EJing.

Since everybody is using the same set-up, it is skill that counts the most.


EDIT:  I will probably be very sad though as I am quite an EJ myself.Cry
