Lizard Skins Bat Grip How To Install - Right Handed | Bat Wrap | Baseball Bat Grip | Bat Grip Tape

[@OhtaniSolos]

Bro you are my saving grace you are a true legend I was putting on bat tape for my brother it truly look super bad then my brother said you are going to give me 25 bucks for messing up so I unraveled the tape and search it up and you help me so much it save me from death thank you so much

[@matthewkish7353]

Just wrapped my son's bat with the 1.8 and it is as easy as it looks. Some advice for those using the 1.8: Use an one dot overlap with a tape that thick. I did, and thank goodness. A two dot overlap would have felt like a sponge. Also, the 1.8 finishing tape is thick. Just the electrical tape will do unless you want the cosmetic effect.

[@wiegelja]

Do I have to use electrical tape?

[@matthewkish7353]

@@wiegelja Nah. But it is what a lot of the manufacturers use on their wraps from the factory. I always thought it made a nice finish and kept the wrap from unraveling. But if you get certain colors it might ruin the look. My son always uses black, so it doesn't matter

[@dirrbirr]

@@matthewkish7353is it ok to just use the finish tape instead of electric tape?

[@matthewkish7353]

I'm sure it could work. The electrical tape gives it a tighter fit though. A lot of bats will have it as the finish of the original grip tape from the factory

[@dirrbirr]

@@matthewkish7353 thank u for being helpful

[@MSGMZR]

Thanks lizard skins! I went to use ur product and all of the adhesive came off with the 3m covering over it! Now my bat has no grip!!! Awesome 🎉

[@LizardSkinsProducts]

Sorry to hear that happened, it definitely isn't a common issue we hear about. If you will please email [e-mail] a team member will help you out. Thanks!

[@300kike]

As a marching drummer in high school, we wrapped our sticks in electrical tape the same way shown in this video for them to last longer and my music teacher literally would wrap a pair of sticks in maybe a minute and a half. Then again he's been doing it twice a year for 30+ students at a time for 20 years, but still. It's cool to watch

[@stevenwood3649]

Does it matter which direction you wrap? How tight should you pull it as you go? How much overlap is recommended? About how far down the bat does it cover if you go one dot overlap? ...2 dot overlap? Why are none of these obvious answers covered?

[@overdramaticloser8987]

Lmao, there are likes but no replys

[@michaelyip657]

A different video mentions to go from left to right if you are a right hand batter. Overlap one or two dots on the grip max based on your preference. I don't know what the correct answer is but I cover less dots the higher the thickness otherwise it feels too bulky.

[@booly5124]

@@michaelyip657 what if your a switch hitter

[@michaelyip657]

@@booly5124 I'm not sure the correct answer to your question. I guess set up the grip based on the majority of your anticipated at bat directions which I assume would be right handed. Most pitchers in my league are right handed pitchers.

why for only right handed, is there such a way to wrap it for switch hitting? does it make a difference?

[@gexotic4668]

No the title just says rh no dif

[@janetfish6929]

I'm actually thinking he's talking abt if a rt handed or left handed person is taping 😂 WTFK?

[@CallMeP5ycho]

3 years later. There is difference for Rh and lh hitters. This shows for RH, it has to do with longevity of tape job/feel. In a swing, your top hand rotates, the tape in this direction allows that rotation of top hand to not have resistance and also makes it so your glove doesn't rub hard against the tape. Helps preserve batting gloves as well. If you swing without batting gloves you'll really notice the difference in direction of tape :)

[@borgcutus5780]

What's the feeling on adding wrap overtop of existing? I have a brand new Miken bat and it has a fairly thin handle area. There's nothing wrong with the wrap, but I'd like to add some thickness. Can I use .5mm or 1.1mm and go right over top?

[@benjamin_mcallister]

You’d probably take off the old thin one, to replace it with a single thicker one. Instead of doubling up. Lizard skins only cost around $15.

[@roseannsykes3624]

Are you stretching it here? because I just did mine and it’s wrinkled up and did not go very far up the bat. Just wasted a whole strip.

[@goreyboggs]

I watch this video every time I put it on a bat.

[@stephenturner8273]

[@acebuddah2971]

So you have to take the original gripping off or it doesn’t matter.?

[@willsrestorations]

Any grip that's on the bat needs to be removed and that adhesive that's left needs to be removed also.

[@abelflier]

On the amount of overlap, one of your distributors suggested either a "1 dot" or "2 dot" overlap. This video didn't specifically offer how much overlap it should be. Please advise. Thx!

[@127Mason]

Try doing one dot thats what I did

Right handed? What if one is a switch batter? Pete Rose says, "switch batter," not "hitter."

[@shanewhitefeather6298]

Does not really matter. A good grip is a good grip. This helped me wrap my bats better. And Rose did say "Switch Batter."

[@lonewolfmike33]

It doesn't matter if your right or left handed. What kind of stupid question is that. DUH

[@julianakriner5114]

PBA420 it actually does because the grip would unravel quicker if a left hander swung a right wrapped bat

[@lonewolfmike33]

Julian Kriner I was going to say yeah, you got a point since your last name is Kriner. But after further review of the tape on my bat. I still say no because there is no movement, plus the end on the tape on the handle is taped around the end of the tape.

Gamer Vidz .7 millimeters lol

[@pingi223]

Bhahahha. damn ray. Im laughing hard at that one.

[@rich1958]

I was told the 1.8 is what comes on most bats. So with that if you are looking for similar fit go that route.

[@sellfone1913]

@@rich1958 not at all, 1.1 is industry-standard most of the time. Personally, I find 1.8 way too sponge-like.

[@pixaryfn]

video sucks my wrap keeps bubbling and wants to just wrap around the same part of the bat over and over

[@Bigfuzz22]

The video does suck. Stretch it some with firm but even pressure while you wrap to keep the wrinkles out, as you go down the bat you’ll have to “steer” the tape to get the overlap even

[@Samuel-km5yf]

I learned nothing from this video. You’d think a video about how to wrap a bat would cover some of the very basic questions…e.g. how tight do you pull? How much overlap?

My Coaches told us the amount of overlap is personal preference but keep it consistent. That's how I apply my daughter's grip tape & it's always worked for us (she's playing 14u now, started in 6u) and I go with a little tension as I'm applying it but not much.
