| YW Slim Tape, super good! Only downside is that it wears out very quickly, otherwise its the perfect balance of grip and feel.
Secondly is FBS..not much to say about it, great stuff. |

| Never tried any No Comply products. Todd is an awsome person. But it just didn't happen.
For now FBS is my favourite tape
Than Low Pro tape.
It's kinda fat, but when it warns in it's just perfrect. |

| LOL!
I got FBS extra smooth today. And I think I should post my top 3 now.
1.FBS "Extra smooth."
- I'm amazed by the performance of it. It's like between 0.5mm to 1mm thick to my observation (correct me if I'm wrong.) Not spongy at all but extremely grippy. I have the uncut version and It's very easy to cut it with a file. I tried doing some tricks with this one and it is awesome but you need to balance your finger flicks by how hard you pop. All in all I'll give it a 4.5/5 its by fingerboarder preference (I'm just saying coz my hands are often get sweaty.) I used it also in my Closeup G4 with a sucky urethane wheels before I can't pop the deck with the rough grip tape equipped. But now, I can do ollie with it for about 2 inch of height I should replace the wheels of it ASAP.
2. Z-shred "Supreme grip tape"
-It is soft and spongy for a solid feel and fit. about between 1mm to 1.5mm thick you can feel the tension between your fingers and the deck whenever you pop. It gives me more control also to the deck whichever position I wanted to land on my tricks. I would give it a 4.0/5
3. Close up Griptape (not the rough one that comes in complete set)
- Not to good not to bad the thickness is just fine. It still gives good precision and grip This is gonna be my last resort if ever. therefore I give it 3.0/5
GRIP TAPE THAT'S ON MY WISHLIST:
-RIPTAPE
-FOAMY G
-SNOWTAPE
