Ronbus Ripple R1 V2 – Optional Setup

This optional setup enhances paddle performance by adding lead tape for improved balance, a tackier grip with superior cushioning, and PVC electrical tape to increase edge guard durability.

Blue Electrical Tape for Edge Guard: Used instead of traditional edge guard tape due to its enhanced durability and resistance to wear.

Lead Tape on Sides: Applied to improve paddle balance and stability during play.

Lizard Skins Bat Tape: Chosen for its superior tackiness and extra cushioning compared to standard pickleball grip tape.

Installation Steps

  1. Remove Old Grip – Carefully peel off the existing grip tape from the paddle handle.
  2. Prepare New Grip Tape
    Unroll the Lizzard Skins grip tape on a flat surface.
    Cut it to match the length of the original grip.
    Trim the tapered end to match the original shape for a clean fit.
  3. Apply New Grip
    Begin wrapping the new grip tape from the bottom of the handle, working your way up.
    Once wrapped, cut off one-third of the electrical tape, leaving two-thirds intact (black or blue tape).
    Use this piece to secure the top of the grip tape by wrapping it around the top of the handle.
  4. Add Lead Tape for Balance
    Measure and cut two 5-inch strips of lead tape.
    Apply one strip to each side of the bat handle, starting 1 inch above the top of the grip and running upward.
  5. Cover with Edge Guard
    Use the blue electrical tape to cover the lead tape, securing it in place and adding a finished look.

DONE!!!
