Is it the best thing to do when skating with out grip tape?

Question

it feels basically the same as when i have tape on there but my feet jus slide more....im trying to be unique and this was the best thing i could think of...so if u think its not good let me....could it really be the reason for more credit cards?

Answer 1

you might think your being unique rideing with out grip tape but it can only cause you more pain then rideing with grip tape so think about it and goood luck

Answer 2

dont do that,itll mess all your tricks up and you wont be able to do tricks as good as if you had it on,if you want t be unique you can try what i did,i got clear griptape from my local skateshop and put stickers all over the top of my board and put the clear grip on top of it and nobody at the skatepark had anything like mine

Answer 3

The only thing good about skating without gridtape is that you won't scrath your hands up when you touch the gridtape (when you first buy it). I skated for about 2 weeks without gridtape and it wasn't good. i could barely do any tricks. And I slipped more then usual. Being unique is important but not having gridtape is not the way to get around doing it. Gridtape is an important essential to your board and mke sure you have it on your board so you don't have more of a risk of getting hurt then you already do.

Answer 4

well the only plus it will have other than being unique is itll save ur shoes.

but on the down side, very low ollies, and little friction to keep u on the board if u were to hit like a random dictionary that was in the middle of the street, or you no a pebble i guess? theres a reason why people use it, and its not to waste 5$

if u want to be unique, they sell colord griptape , or even griptape with some design printed or cut out.
