In short, you turn a simple strap into a sturdy loop that fits comfortably around your wrist and doesn't come loose.
How to do it step by step:
-
Start with the existing strap - this is a standard strap that goes over the racket handle.
-
Fold the strap in half to form a loop.
-
Take both ends and pass them through the resulting loop.
-
Tighten – pull until a strong knot-like loop is formed.
-
Put it on your wrist - now the strap fits better and doesn't slip.
Why is it worth doing this?
Greater safety – the racket will not slip out of your hand even with strong swings.
Greater comfort – the strap no longer slips or irritates.
No additional tools are required - just tie it as shown.
