| So yea I just wanted to know your guys opinions because I usually used 4corner griptape and decided to switch to riptape for a change...
Worst mistake ever, at least so far. It takes so long to wear in and while its not worn in it sucks balls. Though some people may disagree, this is just my opinion.
So now I know I can't trust griptape by the company popularity. Whats your favorite griptape?
Mine is 4corner because it wears in quickly, while its not worn in its still acceptable, and its grippy as hell! |

| inb4 deshawn posts about how he uses griptape like back in the good ol days 15 years ago
erm, rip is pretty awful, fbs is okay, foamy greatness is good but falls apart easily, I think china tape is basically the best tape, I just find it easy to use, and I know it's not supporting the scene, but it's far better than everyone else has to offer. so yeah, I'm basically just gonna buy a fuckload of it from fingersized. |
