Yonex Excel Pro Synthetic Leather Replacement Grip - Black – Firm Feel & Reliable Control
Overview
The Yonex Excel Pro Synthetic Leather Replacement Grip is designed for players looking to restore a firm, secure and responsive feel to their racket handle. Made from polyurethane synthetic leather, it provides a direct connection to the racket while retaining enough comfort for regular training and match play.
At 1.6 mm thick, the Excel Pro offers a relatively firm feel that helps maintain feedback from the handle without adding excessive cushioning. Its tacky surface provides dependable grip and control, making it suitable for tennis, badminton and other racket sports.
Unlike an overgrip, the Excel Pro is a full replacement grip designed to be fitted directly onto the racket handle after removing the existing base grip. Players can use it on its own or add an overgrip on top according to their preferred feel.

Pro / Player Review
The Yonex Excel Pro is a good choice for players who prefer a firmer replacement grip rather than a heavily cushioned handle. Its 1.6 mm thickness provides a useful balance between comfort and racket feedback, while retaining good definition of the handle bevels for confident grip changes.
The tacky surface is particularly useful for players who want a secure connection without immediately adding an overgrip. Players who prefer a softer, more heavily cushioned handle may find the Excel Pro relatively firm, although an overgrip can easily be added for additional comfort and absorption.
It is particularly well suited to Yonex racket owners wanting a high-quality replacement grip with the dimensions and firm playing characteristics associated with the brand's performance racket range.
