most overgrips ask you to finish the job with scissors. this one doesn't. the double-tapered ends wrap clean on both sides, which sounds minor until you've cut a crooked flap into the last five grips you put on.

a guy named Jim Throneburg invented the activity-specific padded athletic sock and spent the rest of his life perfecting it. they still make them in North Carolina.

we've been doing our one thing since 1970. they've been doing theirs longer. the Thorlos are back on the wall, and if you've been waiting, this is the post 🎾

if you play four times a week and go through shoes like they're grip tape, On built this one with you in mind.

the Roger Pro Fire is heavier and tougher than the Pro 2 on purpose. reinforced where sliding does the damage, caged through the midfoot, planted when you brake hard.

not everyone who quits poly needs to give it up completely. sometimes, they just need a hybrid.

poly in the mains keeps the spin and control while a softer cross adds some give. flip the setup, and softer mains lead with comfort and power while poly crosses bring back spin and control.

these two setups approach that balance from opposite directions. the right one depends entirely on what your arm and your game are telling you.

come in and we’ll figure it out together 💪

buying a racket online is a coin flip dressed up as research. plenty of those reviews are solid. you still don't know whether an MRT ever touched the thing, and a review can't ask you a single question about your game.

come in instead. we'll ask what you're playing with, what you want more of, and what's been feeling off. then you demo the ones that make sense before you spend a dollar.

every frame on our wall is demo ready. swipe through, then come find yours 🔬

your racket does not need an overnight stay. it needs about the length of one good conversation and then it's yours again 🔬

this is from the day they filmed The D**k at the old shop. Andy Roddick was there, our crew kept stringing, and somebody grabbed this between takes.

it's on Apple TV now, which means the old location is officially preserved in high definition forever. we didn't plan it that way but we'll take it 🎾
