Superjockk Cushion Wrap

The Ultimate Guide to Superjockk Cushion Wrap

Many players focus on expensive rackets but ignore the most critical connection point: the grip. The Superjockk Cushion Wrap is a professional-grade polyurethane foam tape designed to be worn under your main overgrip. It is widely used by international badminton and tennis players to customize their handle feel.

3 Major Benefits of Using Cushion Wrap

• 1. Shock Absorption: High-tension strings transfer a lot of vibration to the hand. This soft foam layer dampens those vibrations, reducing the risk of tennis elbow and wrist fatigue.
• 2. Custom Grip Sizing: Standard grips (G4, G5) might not fit every hand perfectly. Instead of adding a heavy second grip, you can layer this lightweight wrap to increase the handle thickness by just a few millimeters.
• 3. Sweat Management: It absorbs excess moisture that passes through your overgrip, keeping the wooden handle dry and preventing it from becoming slippery or damaged.

How to Apply Cushion Wrap Correctly

For the best results, follow this "Pro Circuit" method:

1. Remove the existing grip until you see the bare wood of the handle.
2. Start wrapping the Superjockk Cushion Wrap from the bottom (butt cap) upwards.
3. Overlap the tape by 50% as you wind it up.
4. Apply 2 to 4 layers depending on how thick (cushioned) you want the handle to be.
5. Finish by applying your favourite Overgrip on top.

SportsUncle Expert Take: Why use Superjockk Cushion Wrap?

The Verdict: This is the "secret weapon" for players who find standard G4/G5 grips too thin but don't want the bulk of two overgrips. It allows for micro-adjustment of your handle size.

What we like:

• Ultra-Thin Precision: At just 0.20mm, it is thinner than standard wraps. This means you can wrap it 3-4 times to get the exact thickness you want without losing the "feel" of the wooden handle bevels (edges).
• Hygiene Shield: It acts as a barrier, preventing sweat from soaking into the wooden handle and thereby preventing the wood from rotting over time.
• Pain Relief: Excellent for players recovering from hand blisters or calluses.
  
  

Pro Tip: Remove the original factory grip, apply 2-3 layers of Superjockk Cushion Wrap directly on the wood, and then apply your towel or PU overgrip. This gives you the "Pro Player" setup.
