HEAD Hydrosorb™ Comfort Replacement Grip , White

The HEAD Hydrosorb™ Comfort Replacement Grip (White) is the most cushioned, shock-absorbent option within HEAD’s flagship Hydrosorb replacement grip lineup, combining maximum impact protection with a clean, classic cosmetic.

Designed for players prioritizing joint health and arm protection, the Hydrosorb Comfort features an upgraded 2.1 mm elastomer construction—making it thicker and plushier than the standard 1.8 mm Hydrosorb grip.

It features an extra-large air channel system integrated beneath a finely perforated surface. This twin-channel design channels sweat away from the hand while actively dampening harsh frame vibrations before they travel up the arm. The White colorway provides a crisp, premium aesthetic that pairs seamlessly with modern frames.

Performance Profile

1. Comfort & Cushioning: 10 / 10: Maximum vibration dampening. Soft and forgiving on wrists, elbows, and shoulders during long sessions or off-center hits.
2. Sweat Absorbency: 8.5 / 10: Large surface perforations combined with deep ventilation channels channel moisture away from your palm for a secure hold.
3. Tackiness & Grip: 8 / 10: High-tack synthetic surface prevents racquet twisting on off-center impacts without feeling overly sticky.
4. Handle Bevel Tactility: 5.5 / 10: The plush 2.1 mm thickness softens the sharp edges of the grip bevels compared to thinner replacement grips or leather.
5. Durability: 8 / 10: Thick, high-density construction offers excellent resistance to friction and tearing.

Best Suited For

1. Arm-Conscious Players: Ideal for players recovering from or trying to prevent tennis elbow, wrist soreness, or shoulder fatigue.
2. Slightly Increasing Grip Size: The extra 2.1 mm profile slightly bulks up the handle diameter (by approximately half a grip size), ideal if your current handle feels slightly small.
3. Playing Directly on the Base Grip: Perfect for players who do not use overgrips and want maximum built-in cushioning directly from their replacement grip.
4. Stiff Frame Dampening: Excellent for pairing with modern power or rigid control racquets to mute uncomfortable frame buzz.
