How to choose a padel overgrip?
The overgrip is one of the most underrated padel accessories, even though it directly influences comfort and control.
To choose the right one:
✔️ Good grip to prevent the racket from slipping
✔️ Sweat absorption
✔️ Comfort without making the handle too thick
✔️ Good durability
An overgrip should be changed regularly depending on how often you play.
At My Pulse Padel, we prioritize overgrips designed to offer comfort, strong grip, and a natural feel on the court.
🎾 Tip: replace your overgrip as soon as it becomes smooth or slippery
Padel racket protection: useful or a gadget?
A racket protector is much more than an aesthetic accessory.
During rallies near the glass or low balls, the top of the racket is regularly subjected to impacts.
A protector allows you to :
✔️ Reduce scratches
✔️ Limit frame wear
✔️ Extend the lifespan of the racket
✔️ Keep it looking better over time
The most important thing is to choose a protector that is lightweight, discreet, and easy to apply.
A small protector today can prevent significant wear tomorrow.
🎾 Our advice: install a protector as soon as you buy a racket
How to extend the lifespan of padel balls?
Balls naturally lose their pressure after several matches.
However, a few good habits allow you to keep them for longer :
✔️ Store balls in their tube after use
✔️ Avoid heat and sun
✔️ Do not leave balls in the car trunk
✔️ Use a pressure maintenance system
Proper care often allows you to play longer with the same feel.
🎾 Trick: store your balls in a dry environment between uses to preserve their pressure for longer.
How to film your padel matches easily?
Filming your padel matches allows you to keep your best points, but also to analyze your game and spot small details to improve.
To get stable video :
✔️ Attach your phone directly to the court glass
✔️ Place it high enough to get an overview
✔️ Check that the mount is perfectly stable
✔️ Use your phone's wide-angle lens if necessary
A good mount allows you to start recording in seconds without installing a tripod around the court.
With My Padel Cam™, the suction cup system allows for a solid attachment to the glass, and the magnetic mount is particularly practical with MagSafe-compatible cases.
🎾 Trick: always do a quick video test before the match to check the framing.
Why use a silicone wrist strap for padel?
The wrist strap is an essential element because it keeps the racket attached to your wrist during play.
However, fabric wrist straps can quickly absorb sweat and become damp over the course of matches.
A silicone wrist strap allows for:
✔️ Avoiding a sweat-soaked fabric strap
✔️ Much easier cleaning
✔️ Better wrist comfort
✔️ Durable and hygienic use
FJPADEL Expert silicone wrist straps are available in two versions depending on your racket's attachment system.
🎾 Advice: always check the compatibility with your racket before choosing your model.
Why wear a cap suitable for padel?
During outdoor matches, sun and heat can quickly become bothersome, especially during long matches.
A good sports cap must be:
✔️ Lightweight
✔️ Breathable
✔️ Comfortable while moving
✔️ Capable of drying quickly
The My Pulse Padel Performance Cap is made of quick-drying polyester, with perforated sides to promote ventilation and a 3D embroidered logo.
🎾 Advice: to play outdoors, always prefer a lightweight and breathable cap rather than a thick model.
