<p>The invention herein relates to a handle for sports rackets which offers an improvement of the conventional eightsurface octagonal tapered grip of conventional tennis rackets which have the shortcoming of causing calluses (hardened and thickened skin and/or medullary sheath) where the grip corners impact the hypothenar eminence of the gripping palm. The aforesaid improved tapered grip consists of the modification of the conventional octagonal grip shape comprised of opposed horizontal surfaces into a polyhedral diamond shape, thus converting the conventional octahedral grip into a shape with multiple facets and more planar surfaces which thus minimize the number of corners impacting the gripping palm and, moreover, provides more comfort and a greater number of solid gripping positions.</p> |
