Abstract
A grip for sporting equipment is provided having an elongated strip adapted for wrapping the gripping end of the equipment and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism includes locking structures, typically ribs and grooves disposed on the elongated strip side edges. Wrapping the elongated strip around the gripping end places the adjoining first and second locking structures in a partially overlapped and facing orientation for cooperative interlocking thereof to secure the adjoining side edges, defining a hollow sleeve adapted to receive the gripping end in an interior thereof.
