Like the tape the Kerri Walsh is wearing?

The tape that Kerri Walsh wears when she plays volleyball is called Kinesio Tape. Kinesio Tape helps support her rotator cuff and increase circulation which she had surgey on to repair. But if you are talking about the tape that gymnasts use, they use regular athletic tape.
