Use the CRBN Paddle Eraser to remove ball fiber buildup before you add tape or coins. A clean surface holds tape better and grips the ball more.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtect the edges. Apply the edge guard tape around the paddle's rim. This stops chips from spreading and adds a small amount of weight at the perimeter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd weight where you need it. Use lead tape or counter coins near the top of the paddle for more power, or near the throat for more control and hand speed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegrip the handle. Wrap a DryTec overgrip over your factory grip for a fresh, sweat-resistant surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTest and adjust.

Your swing, grip strength, and game style are not the same as the next player's. A few grams of lead tape near the top of the paddle adds power on drives. The same weight near the throat adds control at the net. Most players start with 2 to 6 grams total and adjust from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBuilt for tournament play\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAll lead tape and coin weights in this kit meet USA Pickleball equipment rules.
