Woodsytheowl Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 ** In regards to the grommet falling out of the actual mouth piece holster, Scoop recommended using Krazyglue which works incredibly well.Well, I work at a tennis club and thought this might be a cool idea to fix those handles that have been falling apart. I've also used this trick to change the color of my handle to something other than the available defaults.1. Find the color you want. Wal-Mart sometimes carries three packs of grip and most sporting goods stores will. I would recommend buying the three packs instead of the jumbo rolls for convenience purposes. These grips usually range from $3-$5 a pack. Colors can vary, but I assure you, whatever color you want exists.2. Apply the grip to your handle. If you don't know how to do this, About.com has a pretty good article (wrapping overgrip). Two things should be noted: I wouldn't recommend using the entire grip (as opposed to a tennis racket handle), and you should use the reverse, dull side of wrap (use the part that DOESN'T have plastic covering).Hope you guys find this helpful. I couldn't decide whether or not to put this in the How-To. I'll let the Mods decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soldier92 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 How exactly do these fall apart? I've heard lots of people say it happens but I have one and have no problems with it. Does the whole handle just fall off, or do the fluffy things on each end of it just come off or does it lose it's seal quality? I've never heard exactly what it is that happens to them, just that they fall apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of mine were always hung up after a session and the quickest to unravel took over a month, the longest about 8 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my hoses look brand new, some are over a year old. What do you people do to your hoses?Back to OP, That's a cool Idea I may do it to a couple of mine just for looks!
