The Tourna Mega Tac is widely regarded as the tackiest overgrip ever created. While many grips claim a "wet" feel, Mega Tac is engineered with a specific polyurethane formula that provides an almost adhesive-like suction to the hand, making it a cult favorite for players who struggle with the racquet slipping.
Performance Profile
- Extreme Tackiness: The defining characteristic of Mega Tac is its "grab." It is significantly stickier than standard tacky grips (like Yonex Super Grap or Wilson Pro). This creates a "locked-in" sensation that requires very little hand pressure to maintain control.
- Longevity of Tack: Unlike many tacky grips that lose their "stick" after one or two hours, Mega Tac is designed to maintain its adhesive properties for several sessions. Tourna claims it remains tacky for up to 10–14 days for the average player.
- Firm Feel: At 0.55 mm, it is slightly thinner than many plush grips. It offers a "crisp" feedback, allowing you to feel the bevels of the handle clearly. It provides less cushioning than a "pillowy" grip, prioritizing grip security over vibration dampening.
- Durability: The top layer is highly resistant to peeling or "shredding," which is a common issue with high-tack grips. It holds its structural integrity even under the friction of aggressive baseline play.
Best Suited For
- Players with Slippage Issues: If your racquet frequently twists in your hand or flies out during serves, this is the industry's strongest solution.
- Cold or Dry Climates: In conditions where hands don't sweat much, standard grips can feel "slick." Mega Tac provides instant friction regardless of skin temperature or moisture.
- Flat Hitter & Heavy Servers: Those who exert massive force on the handle and need to ensure the racquet face doesn't shift a millimeter upon impact.
- Hard Court & Indoor Players: It thrives in environments where the grip isn't constantly pelted with clay or dirt, which can eventually coat the tacky surface.
Usage Tip
Because Mega Tac is so sticky, it can be slightly more difficult to "wrap" perfectly compared to softer, more elastic grips. Take your time to pull it taut during installation to avoid wrinkles. Also, if you play on red clay, be aware that clay dust will stick to this grip more aggressively than others, which will eventually neutralize the tackiness.
