A reference your hand can feel
Auro Grip is a physical guide that helps the hand find the continental grip on a padel racket handle. Its role is to make the intended hand position tangible rather than replace the racket or the player’s overgrip.
Position 01: control and precision
The first real setting is Position 01, identified by AURO as the control position. Its accompanying reference is continental and precision, so the product presents this as the starting configuration for that purpose.
Position 02: a reversible setup
Position 02 changes the setup without tools: remove Auro Grip, rotate it 180 degrees and reinsert it. AURO describes this second position in terms of maneuverability, versatility and a lower hand position.
Handed versions and the overgrip
Right-hand and left-hand versions keep the guide ramp aligned with the player’s hand. Auro Grip does not replace an overgrip, which can still be used for feel and sweat absorption on the handle.

Position 01 is built for control and precision. Position 02 is reached by removing the grip, rotating it 180 degrees, and reinserting it for more maneuverability. They are two real product configurations rather than editorial labels.
Can left-handed players use the same reference concept?
Yes. Auro Grip has right-hand and left-hand versions, so the ramp reference matches the player hand. Choose the version corresponding to the playing hand.
