Got my Sow Tape through the post today, been using it for all day and am really impressed with it! Here's my review!

Shipping was really good. It took 9 days from the USA to England which is the average but he sent it the day after the competition was won, added traceable postage and also it is coming up to Christmas ( santa ) which will affect the postage, so taking all that into consideration it couldn't be better! It was sent in the average bubble mailer, and the tape was in perfect condition. He sent the 3 sheets of tape with a sticker and a free Holywood deck which I was super stoked on, Thanks man! 10/10

First Impressions of the tape for me was 'WOW!' This is amazing, it felt so nice straight out the sealy bag! I was so excited to set it up! I set it up on my Blosom 32.5mm and it fit easily both length ways and width ways. Dimensions of the tape are 35mm Wide X 110mm Long X 0.8mm Thick, great for almost every deck on the market! 10/10

Setup was easy, it cuts really nicely and gives a clean finish on your deck. Left a bit of residue but it came off straight away with a wipe of the hand. 9.75/10

Performance of this tape is amazingly good. I was surprised at how well I could control the board, and how much grip it had, even though it was straight out the pack. It's quite a firm, thin tape so doesn't squish down a lot when under pressure. It seemed worn in as soon as I took it out of the pack, but it seems like after about 10 mins use it's at 100%. Overall, a perfect tape! If I was to compare to anything, i'd say a mixture of Propaganda, FBS and China, which are my 3 favorite tapes, I couldn't be happier! 10/10

Overall, a fantastic tape. I'm definitely going to pick some up when it's out, as its really one of my favorite tapes at the moment. If you're a fan of FBS, China or Propaganda I would definitely recommend this to you! 9.9/10

Check out http://myfingerboardshop.com/ to pick up some tape when it's out!

^It's at the bottom of the review, but you won't be able to pick up any tape yet as it's not in stock yet.

Nice review man! After some usage were there some residue?

Glad you didn't review it Kerry =P It would've gotten a verry low score due to bad luck.
