Yet Another Grip Question, Recommendation Needed

[adamlp41]

In the past, I used the standard blue Tourna Grip because I really liked the un-tackiness of it. I have a K-Six racquet, and the blue Tourna won't do it justice. Can anyone recommend a white replacement grip or over grip that will provide the non-tacky feeling of Tourna Grip (not Tourna Grip II however as that is advertised as tacky).

Thanks in advance for the help.

dude, stay with tourna it is the best. Besides the white grips always get dirty really fast.

Tournagrip has trademarked their color and they do not sell any grips in white that I'm aware of. They have a one-of-a-kind brand that they're unlikely to dilute for fashion's sake.

Besides, I find that Tournagrip looks pretty good on most racquets. If a white grip is important enough then try some and see if you can live with the feel, which will initially be very different than what you're used to.

K-six with a white grip looks kinda gay, IMHO. Stick with Tourna and be a bada$$...

Unique had (maybe has) white Tournagrip. Contact them to see if it's still in stock.

The white Tourna is tacky, which is why that is out. I'm looking for anything that comes in white, and is not tacky. Most grip descriptions (in the Tennis Warehouse store for instance) sya if they are tacky or not, but I am looking for someone with experience to vouch.

P.S. The K-Six is best with white or leather colored grip. Classy.

well then why don't you you just put a used leather grip on it that has lost all tack and use that then

Try Wilson Pro Soft in White.

It's sort of the non-tacky version of Wilson Pro. It may hold up better than Tournagrip as well.

(it works for me anyway, and I think I sweat more then anyone)

Just because something is not "tacky" doesnt mean that it's slippery.

Tournagrip and Wilson Pro Overgrip (and H2O to some extent) work because they create friction with your hand without having that sticky feeling that's going to go away after it gets wet anyway.

If you need it in white, try Babolat OG VS...

I'd personal recommend Tourna Grips but as you don't want blue other one's I'd recommend or Tecnifibre Player's Warp over grips.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback. Of the Wilson Pro Soft, the Babolat VS OG, and the Technifibre grips, which would be the least likely to cause blisters? The tacky grip on my racquet today tore my hand up, and ultimately that is what I want to avoid going forward.
