Comments: I am a chronic GE sufferer and contrary to most of the advice around using heavier control orientated racquets to absorb shock has not worked for me consistently, although I love using them. As an experiment I switched to one of my old racquets, a super light, head heavy 108 square inch racquet and added some soft multifilaments, the result for the elbow was okay but not great. I then added one of these and the results are great, true they are very thick, but I can live with that more than elbow pain. The shock absorption is amazing and I can play for extended periods with no pain. It has also added significant weight to the handle so the racquet is more evenly balanced now, if you can live with the increase in grip size which is significant and you have elbow or arm issues I would definitely recommend.

Comments: I purchased this grip as I have a stiff racquet (Wilson PSC), and wanted a grip to absorb shock. Well, it does absorb shock but is so disappointing in that it made my 4 and 1/2 grip a 4 and 3/4. What good is that? To pay a high price for a grip Gamma should have said it will increase your grip size. I had to remove the grip as I could not play with it.

Comments: Good grip, excellent shock absorption, however, you need to know that this grip is very thick and will make your grip size feel about 2 sizes larger. I play with a 4 3/8 stock grip and an overgrip on my racquet typically. With just this Gamma Gel grip on it (no overgrip), the racquet feels like it's easily a 4 5/8 grip size. The benefit in addition to the grip and the shock absorption is the grooves between the fingers created by the thickness of the gel grip which provides a nice "locked in" feel. The downside though, again is that with that thickness also comes much less of a feeling for the bevels on the racquet. In fact, I agree with another reviewer that it makes the handle feel more rounded. I like this grip, but I could only use it if I ordered a racquet 2 grip sizes smaller than my typical size.

Comments: This grip has the weight/dampening of a leather grip and the grooves create a nice contour. It's a bit thick and weighs about 23-24 grams. Perfect if you want a hand filling a contour grip with dampening, which is what I wanted.

Comments: This grip is great if you want to increase your racquet grip size. It feels great, however it made my handle almost round, it's really thick. I like to feel the edges, so this one did not work. I went with a Wilson contoured grip which is much thinner and works better for me.
From:Max, 3/15

Comments: Excellent grip. Great feel, good tack, significant shock absorption properties. This grip works for me in three ways. One, the shock absorption was tremendous and felt right away. It allows one to plow through groundstrokes without twisting or turning on impact. Second, the tack was great enough to keep from having to squeeze the racquet too tightly. Third, the contour allowed me to keep the racquet face steady throughout the entire swing, hence more control and spin. (USTA 5.0 all court game)

Comments: This contour grip is by far one of the best on the market. Wilson makes a similar grip to this one but it is way too harsh. I also like Gosen's contour grip which is similar to this one at lower cost.

Comments: Awesome grip! My hand never slips even though how sweaty they get. My game has improved so much with this contour grip. Thanks Gamma.

Comments: Same as SK notes. It is a very good grip. I have the non gel one as well and they both are good. Cuts the vibrations down and comfort is great. But just watch out because your grip will get bigger. I went from a 1/2 grip and it feels like a 5/8 or even bigger.

Comments: I just replaced my Duratac grip on a Prince NXG L4. The original Duratac was a fine grip, but I am suffering from a sore hand, so decided to try this out. Fairly easy to change, and the recesses are well aligned to aid re-gripping. I played some 3 hours today for the first time, and the comfort is noticeably higher. The gel helps against those mishits that jar the racquet a lot, but a couple of things to watch out for: 1. The grip is thicker that most grips, and if your grip size is already on the high side, this will increase it. 2. Your racquet will likely gain about 1 oz. For me, this was actually a gain, because I wanted to add more weight to the handle, so the grip did that for me. The grip itself is very comfortable, the contours help, especially while switching, and when serving. Maybe if the gel layer was a little thinner.

Comments: I didn't think a grip could improve one's game as much as this grip did for mine. I always used a tacky overgrip for better grip but the racquet still at times would move in my hand causeing a off center/off power shot. This grip enabled me to hit better topspin and gave me more general confidence and control w/ my groundstrokes. It also improved my serve. I recommend this to everyone who currently is useing an overgrip of sort.
