Abstract
A tennis racquet grip accessory for adjustable, customizable grip ergonomics is disclosed. This grip accessory system enables the user to precisely tune their grip contours via rings (size, shape, quantity, positioning) for preferred finger and hand traction and leverage. The ring contours provide better personalized fitting in the user's hand and against fingers. The overall system improves user confidence, flexibility, and loose grip for racquet head speed for better shot making: it enables high performance ball speed and spins as well as gentle touch-shots.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]Problem Solved: Racquet grip shapes have changed little in over 100 years. Modern stroke techniques and improved equipment technology require advancement of grip ergonomics. Existing racquet grips have not advanced with modern stroke techniques and higher performance equipment (racquet materials, string materials, balls, shoes and court surfaces). Existing grips and accessories provide only a uniform wrap or cover without player tune-ability of the grip shape.[0002]This grip accessory system enables the user to precisely tune their grip via rings (size, shape, quantity, positioning) for preferred finger traction and leverage. The added contours provide better personalized fitting in the user's palm and against fingers. The overall system improves user confidence, flexibility, and loose grip for racquet head speed for better shot making: high performance speed and spins as well as gentle touch-shots.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION[0003]As stated...
