| My foamy greatness have lasted me at least 3 months now. And it's on my main that i use all the time and carry in my pocket. I havent tried the newest rip, but the old one is useless to me. Way too hard. China tape works pretty good aswell. It grips great from the start, but wears out a bit faster. But its cheap so you can just get more of it  |

| i have used a few - and i cant fault the china grip from broken knuckle - at 6 pieces for 5 bucks - it feels good as soon as you put it on and holds up semi pretty good i think.. its a hair on the not so thin side of things....
until i got a sheet of foamy j grip with my nocomply m2 deck = and wow this stuff is amazing thin and grippy - and sweet as heck !!!
i still have yet to try a rip tape of any kind.... someone sent me some porus tape to try with a deck - and i diddnt like that much - and i got some realley weird smooth fat tape with another deck that was impossible to use until i took some 120 grit sandpaper to it and wore it down a bit to be fuzzy and grippy... that stuff was crazy weird i think i drive a prius sent it to me - i wonder if he knows what grip that is ? |
