It comes off SOSOSO easy. Just kind of rub the end of the tails until the Riptape starts to peal. Then just carefully peel it off! No mess and no stupid glue residue or anything like that! Hope I helped you.

Yeah, quick questions shocked

Although it varies with the tape, some tapes are crazy sticky and are harder to remove. I generally use grip until it loses grip or peels off,
If you want to take it off before it peels, you could try heating it with a hair dryer happy

I had the same question but awesome replies!
I recently bought a berlinwood and I used the tape that came with it (the ones with the lasered logos on it) but after a few days I noticed i have a lot more control with Original Riptape so I'm planning to change it.

Thanks!
