If you play hard, your paddle is going to show it—edge guard chips, scuffs, and that “been through a few battles” look. In this video, I walk you through two super practical upgrades that keep your paddle looking clean and help prevent more damage: installing edge tape and wrapping an overgrip. I’m using Holbrook paddles as the example, but the process is the same for pretty much any paddle in your bag. First, I show how to apply edge tape the right way so it lays flat, lines up clean, and doesn’t bunch up around the curves. Then I move into overgrips—how I start the wrap, keep consistent tension, and finish it off so it feels solid in-hand. The big takeaway: a few minutes of setup can protect your investment, improve comfort, and give your paddle a fresh, dialed-in look before your next session.
