Babolat Syntec Uptake X30 Box

Divide thirty by the number of grips you fit in a year. A pair of rackets re-gripped twice a year uses four, so a box lasts 7.5 years. A club regripping ten rackets twice a year uses twenty and gets 1.5 years. A hire fleet of forty rackets re-gripped once a year clears it in about nine months. These are worked examples, not data about your courts.

Base grips are changed far less often than overgrips, so a box this size suits a shop or a coach, not an individual player.

Thirty of the Syntec Uptake, which Babolat sells singly as the black Uptake X1. A thinner alternative is the Syntec Team. We have not confirmed the colour mix in a box, so ask before ordering a particular colour. The padel grips page covers how a base grip works with an overgrip.

Individual players, who will need one grip at most and are better served by a single from the padel accessories range. The box is also unconfirmed beyond our listing title, so check before relying on thirty.
