thoughts?

 

[Dan Riopelle]

i have some on mine rite now because theyre all torn up and it doesnt stay on its not sticky enough

 

[team_punishment]

use athletic tape, electrical tape gets all sweaty and slippery, athletic tape stays grippy

electrical tape works fine for me.

its a must for all foamies to be taped. doesn't really matter with what kind of tape, it just has to be taped.

 

[adambowen7]

get new grips?

 

[Chris Picone]

The thing about electrical tape over athletic tape is that electrical tape compresses more and more over time. If you want more grip, wrap athletic tape over the electrical tape.

Foam grips with electrical tape worked well for me when I used them.

athletic tape gets alll sticky and the adhesives in the tape then stick to ur hand which i found was really annoying while ridiing so electrical tape is betteer but still sucks, cuz if u get sweety hands the bars become SLIppy

athletic tape works great
John radtke, Nick darger, and alot of other socal pros use it.
it doesnt compress the grip and it protects,

it might stick to your hand
but only for the first day or two
then it works like magic.

use to do it with my foamies but then i just got comfy grips which are much better, etc. fly rubens, odi longnecks, animal edwins, aaron ross odyssey grips

Get BMX grips.

 

[cmjscooter]

i thnhk that just plain foam grips are great

 

[codyferner]

use hockey tape. the gray stuff. not the clear.
the clear i just like regular tape.

 

[yamum99]

Definatey a must, i heard that tennis or hockey grip works. Vey goo idea, makes your foamies last 10x longer.
