RTPTENNIS -SHOCKSORB WASP STRIPS - Add Weight, Power, and Stability to your shots and reduce harmful vibrations.

The WASP strips add mass to specific areas of your racquet frame, which increases stability and reduces the jarring vibrations that travel up your arm upon impact. By customizing the weight distribution, you can make your racquet feel more solid and less prone to twisting on off-center hits.

To increase power, apply the strips to the upper hoop of the racquet head, typically between the 10 and 2 o'clock positions. Adding weight here increases the swing weight, which helps generate more momentum through your swing.

Yes, they will. Because you are adding weight to the frame, the balance point will shift toward wherever you place the strips. If you place them in the head, your racquet will become more head-heavy; placing them near the handle or throat will keep the balance more neutral.

Yes, the strips are designed to be removable. However, they use a strong adhesive to ensure they stay in place during intense play, so you may need to clean off any residual adhesive from your racquet frame once they are peeled off.

They function differently. While a string dampener primarily absorbs vibrations from the string bed itself, these frame strips work by adding mass to the racquet structure, which helps dampen vibrations before they reach your hand and arm. Many players use both for maximum comfort.
