Four stops before the checkout

Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt
01
Edgewood cardiovascular tennis clinics — Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack at Naama Bay with Bedouin handicraft stands along the waterfront
Stop one

Naama Bay, Bedouin handicraft stands strung along the front

Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack: Okay grip reveal at Naama Bay, and yes, the promenade shops and cafés are fully understanding the assignment. This is giving ‘post-match stroll but make it Red Sea resort,’ are we getting this, group? #BayDay #GripCheck

02
Edgewood cardiovascular tennis clinics — Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack by the Sahaba Mosque minarets over the old market square
Stop two

the Sahaba Mosque, minarets over the old market square

Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack: The Sahaba Mosque in the Old Market has those dramatic twin minarets doing vertical content before I even hit record. This is giving holy architecture meets fresh racquet drip, and honestly the lighting is behaving for once.

03
Edgewood cardiovascular tennis clinics — Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack at Ras Muhammad where reef drops toward open water
Stop three

Ras Muhammad at the peninsula's southern tip, reef falling away into open water

Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack: Ras Muhammad is Egypt’s first national park, established in 1983, so yes, we are gripping responsibly in a protected icon. Reef drop, open water, overgrip close-up—this is giving documentary, but with better wrist control.

04
Edgewood cardiovascular tennis clinics — Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack at Shark Reef beside a coral wall dropping straight down
Stop four

Shark Reef, an eight-hundred-metre wall of coral going straight down

Head Super Comp Tennis Overgrip 3-Pack: Shark Reef said, ‘How dramatic do you want the backdrop?’ and then served an eight-hundred-metre coral wall straight down. Everyone get this angle, because the grip is calm but the reef is doing thriller-movie depth.

Written for this world alone.

Okay so first — the feel. Just hold it. This is a specially engineered elastomer, not the usual tacky-when-new-and-slippery-by-Thursday situation, and it is 0.5 mm thin. Half a millimetre. Zero point zero two of an inch.

That is the entire pitch and it is a good one, because a thin overgrip means you still feel the bevels of the handle underneath, and the bevels are how your hand knows what grip it is in without looking. Thick overgrips round everything off and then you wonder why the volleys have gone weird.

What it does on court: tacky and smooth at the same time, which sounds contradictory until you have one on, and serious sweat absorption, which is the whole reason anybody buys an overgrip in the first place. Three to a pack, so you can do three racquets or one racquet three times, and it comes in black, blue and white.

My honest take — and I say this as someone who has filmed a lot of grip-wrapping content — is that this is the one to put on before a hot match rather than the one you leave on all season. It is thin, it is grippy, it dies honourably.

And Sharm el-Sheikh. This is giving clarity. The water at Ras Muhammad is the kind of blue that makes people accuse you of editing, and at Shark Reef the coral wall just drops — eight hundred metres of it, straight down, and you can hang over the edge of it like you are hovering. Are you getting this?

You will use this grip everywhere from a humid morning session to a five-set nightmare where your hand is the first thing to give up, and it is also perfect for the walk along Naama Bay afterwards, past the Bedouin handicraft stands, holding a hibiscus tea that is going to photograph beautifully whether or not you drink it.

Half a millimetre. That is all that should ever come between your hand and the handle.
