Thick grip that still allows you to feel bevels?

[journeymonk]

Hi! I'm currently on a Babolat leather grip now (stock with the PSLGT), with 2 overgrips (Wilson Pro Overgrip over Babolat VS Original, both well-stretched).

I'm looking for a thicker replacement grip that would still allow me to feel the grip shape. I'd like to increase my grip size just a tad.

Any recommendations?

heat shrink sleeve under the grip

Gamma HI - tech might do the job thick 1.8mm and firm, great feel.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I can get Gamma Hi-Tech easily locally.

the head leather is as thick as the thick TW leather but does not weigh any more than the bab leather...I used it on my sticks to fatten up the grip a bit without adding too much more weight.

You could also put one layer of athletic tape under your leather. I find that one layer increases grip size just a bit less than one overgrip, and it doesn't seem to degrade bevel sharpness a bit.

I second that. The Gamma Hi-Tec Gel grips are way thick. In fact, they're too thick for me and I like a big grip.

If you pull them tightly, the Head ones (leather) are great. Thick and let you feel the bevels, but like I said, make sure you pull tight!

Try the regular Hi-Tech not the gel.

Thanks! Will see this weekend if I can find the Head leather, too, aside from the Gamma Hi-Tech (non-gel, as per maxply).
