This is what I'm gonna do to my Brake

Whenever I'm doing flatland scooter tricks or Tricks that involve the brake I always seem to slide off the brake because of some reason, I think I've thought up a good solution (but someone else probably did this before me). When I ordered some stuff off of Mitchells Collectables they sent me some griptape as well, I don't know why though. I'm just gonna put it on my brake, pretty easy really, but what do you guy think, wouold it be smart or not? Also, has Mitchell's ever sent anyone else free griptape?

He's laughing because that's not a very amazing idea, and most people have tried it before.

Quite clearly I got that impression.

The brakes are curved on the inside, so they wouldn't make square wheels. If anything they make the wheel more rounded.

well as long as you dont kick your foot on the brake and start skidding you wont have square wheels..

and ive tried grip tape on the brake and it wore off heaps quickly
 
Grip tape hardly ever wears of for me, because i dont have a piss weak frekon razor break...

I run the real thing!!

BLADE BREAK

Super thick,super strong,takes for ever to heat up,gripps awesome even with out griptape and grips on to the wheel perfectly!!
 
I did that a while ago... you end up ripping a hole in the tape from spinning on the brake or just pivoting on it.... if you feel like changing it every time you ride then go ahead

the grip doesnt come off unless you dont know how to apply it to a curved surface like that....every brake should be gripped..
