| every deck is a different shape though?...and decks are getting wider all the time...precut sucks now cos they are just too small for the deck, and with fbs/anchor you gotta have a deck no longer than 99mm ideally....and no wider than 29mm, or precut just looks funny on it.......... |

| uncut! I don't get why precut exists, all decks are different shapes. Get uncut. Go to a shop/steal from your mum/sister, A NAIL FILE. Put tape on deck. File edges. Brush off excess with file/your fingers. Fingerboard. Srsly, its sooo not hard I don't get it. Precut was designed for BWOMs when there was soo few deck companies that precut worked. It doesn't any more, I don't get why any companies go for it tbh. Maybe if tape companies did tutorials on uncut tape on their sites, kids would know what to do |

| 5 uncut, just because I recently had a problem putting some precut Riptape on my Lowpro -__-
As for the uncut/precut dilemma, I only think you should do precut if you plan on making decks, too. 4c tape is precut to fit their decks, so that's why it's precut. |

| 5 Uncut because: precut is fucked up for example: compare the kicks of a g12/berlinwood to the kicks of a motive whih are pretty flat or at least the 2 i have are and its like if you had a close up you'd have a deck of about 26mm and precuts like 29 or summin its really annoying ( but no-one uses a close up lol) |

Hmm yeah, more experienced fingerboarders will go with it... newbies will find precut more tempting as it seems pretty easy to stick it on straight. I think I'll give the option of precut and uncut...maybe even mix and match....?i |
