How to Fit BOLD ComfortMax™ Overgrip: Complete Installation Guide

Why Proper BOLD ComfortMax™ Installation Matters

Getting the perfect grip on your padel racket can make all the difference between a winning shot and a missed opportunity. That's why we've designed our BOLD ComfortMax™ overgrip with ComfortCore™ technology to give you that extra edge on the court.

But even the best overgrip needs proper installation to perform at its peak.

Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned player looking to refresh your technique, this guide will walk you through the entire process of fitting your new BOLD ComfortMax™ overgrip like a pro.

What Makes BOLD ComfortMax™ Overgrip Special?

Before we dive into the installation, let's quickly remind ourselves why proper fitting matters. Our BOLD ComfortMax™ features:

• 0.70mm + 3mm EVA cushioning system for superior comfort

• Ergonomic design that follows your hand's natural grip

• Perforated surface for enhanced sweat management

• ComfortCore™ technology for reduced hand fatigue

All these features work together, but only when fitted correctly!

Essential Tools for BOLD ComfortMax™ Installation

• Your BOLD ComfortMax™ overgrip

• A clean, dry cloth

• Sharp scissors or craft knife

• Our Padel Vibes branded finishing tape (wrapped on the overgrip)

Step-by-Step BOLD ComfortMax™ Fitting Guide

Step 1: Prepare Your Racket

Start by cleaning and drying the original grip thoroughly. Remove any old overgrip that might be worn out, but never remove the original grip underneath – this provides the base structure your racket needs.

Top Tip: A clean surface ensures better adhesion and longer-lasting performance for your BOLD ComfortMax™.

Step 2: Remove the Protective Film (Keep the ComfortCore™ Strip!)

Carefully peel off the transparent protective film from your BOLD ComfortMax™ overgrip. You'll notice the white ComfortCore™ strip, do not remove this! This is the ergonomic keel that makes our overgrip special.

Step 3: Position Your BOLD ComfortMax™ at the Handle Base

Position the narrow, pointed end of the BOLD ComfortMax™ overgrip at the very base of your racket handle. Remove the backing from this end and press it firmly against the handle to secure your starting point.

Why start here? Starting at the base ensures the BOLD ComfortMax™ won't unravel during play, especially during those powerful overhead shots.

Step 4: Master the ComfortCore™ Wrapping Technique

Now comes the crucial part – the BOLD ComfortMax™ wrapping technique:

• Direction: Always wrap upwards towards the top of the handle

• Tension: Apply light, consistent tension – not too tight, not too loose

• Overlap: Follow the raised ComfortCore™ strip, overlapping each wrap by about 50%

• Consistency: Keep your wrapping rhythm steady for an even finish

Pro Tip: Less overlap gives you a thinner feel for maximum racket feedback, while more overlap provides extra cushioning with your BOLD ComfortMax™. Experiment to find your preference!

Step 5: Trim Excess BOLD ComfortMax™ Material

Once you reach the top of the handle, you may have some excess BOLD ComfortMax™ material. Use sharp scissors to trim this cleanly, leaving just enough to tuck under or secure with tape.

Step 6: Secure Your ComfortCore™ Installation

Use the finishing tape provided to secure the end of your BOLD ComfortMax™ overgrip. Wrap it firmly around the top, pressing down to ensure a strong seal. This prevents the overgrip from unravelling during intense rallies.

Pro Tips for Perfect BOLD ComfortMax™ Installation

ComfortCore™ Tension Control

• Too tight: Can cause the BOLD ComfortMax™ to tear or create uncomfortable ridges

• Too loose: May cause slipping or bunching during play

• Just right: Firm enough to stay in place, flexible enough to feel comfortable

Common BOLD ComfortMax™ Installation Mistakes

• Removing the white ComfortCore™ strip – This is a feature, not packaging!

• Starting from the wrong end – Always start at the handle base

• Inconsistent tension – This creates lumps and uncomfortable spots

• Forgetting the finishing tape – Your BOLD ComfortMax™ won't last without proper securing

BOLD ComfortMax™ Maintenance for Longevity

Your BOLD ComfortMax™ is built for durability, but proper care extends its life:

• Clean regularly with a damp cloth to remove sweat and dirt

• Check the finishing tape periodically and re-secure if needed

• Replace when worn – typically every 15-20 hours of play for optimal performance

Troubleshooting BOLD ComfortMax™ Issues

• Overgrip feels too thick? Try reducing the overlap on your next BOLD ComfortMax™ installation

• Not enough grip? Ensure you're removing the protective film completely and that your hands are clean and dry

• Unravelling during play? Check that your finishing tape is secure and consider slightly increasing tension on your next wrap
