helix pro grip new generation white overgrip for padel

Helix Pro padel grip: non-slip silicone that goes on in under 1 minute

The Helix Pro Grip New Generation in white is a silicone overgrip for your padel racket from a Spanish brand, Helix Pro Grip. It isn't a tape you wrap around the handle: it's a non-slip silicone sleeve with a helix-shaped raised pattern that slides over the handle. According to the brand, its anti-sweat technology repels moisture rather than absorbing it, and it lasts far longer than a cloth or polyurethane wrap.

This description covers what changes compared with a standard wrap, how to fit it and what you should know before buying.

Silicone versus cloth or polyurethane

A traditional polyurethane or cloth wrap soaks up sweat until it's saturated; at that point it stops gripping and needs replacing. Silicone works the other way round: rather than absorbing sweat, it repels it, and the firm grip comes from the raised pattern. That's why the brand quotes a lifespan of around ten times that of a conventional wrap and, depending on use, up to two years.

The trade-off is the feel. Silicone feels different in the hand from polyurethane: firmer, with a pronounced texture. If you're used to a soft, slightly tacky feel, it'll take a few matches to adjust. It also adds 2 mm of thickness to the handle.

How to fit it

The brand explains it in three steps: slide the sleeve onto the handle, pull the cord so the silicone tightens into place and, if there's any left over, trim off the excess. There's no adhesive. It goes over the grip already on your racket: the brand says you can leave the old grip underneath if you want a thicker handle.

The white Helix Pro and the other colours

White is one of several Helix colours: the brand also makes it in black, pink, yellow, blue and white, grey and white, green and white, and yellow and black, so you can choose the grip you like best. The brand also offers the Helix Pro Invicta, an undergrip that sits underneath and is designed to reduce vibration; that's a separate product. On a silicone grip, dirt doesn't get ingrained the way it does on a textile overgrip, but marks show up more on a light colour. Wipe it clean with a damp cloth; the brand doesn't publish washing instructions, so this is a general recommendation.

Who is the Helix Pro Grip for?

• Players who sweat a lot and saturate their overgrips within a single match.
• Anyone who changes their grip very often and wants something long-lasting.
• Players who prefer a handle with a pronounced texture.
• Not for those who want the soft feel of polyurethane.
