  • This week it's finally time to find out which fingerboard grip tape is better, foam or regular! Subscribe for a new fingerboarding video every Wednesday! I used 2 different Tech Decks for this video.

    my personal opinion, tell me if this makes sense. I love both grips, they are both fun to use and give off a nice feeling. i would use sandpaper more if it lasted as long, but the foam grip lasts longer, and has a little more grip allowing me to ollie higher.

    Just putting foam grip on a regular tech deck makes it at least 2x as good

    My first wooden fingerboard was the first generation Close Up fingerboard from 2009. It didn’t have foam grip but it was definitely superior to all the tech decks everybody had in elementary school

    Wow those tricks I've just started yesterday found an ancient blind yellow graphic with sandpaper grip getting a new one for Christmas mine is so thin and the grip is wearing can't wait to test the difference between the new and old boards. I can Ollie stationary but rolling Ollie is hard I think I'm hitting the tail too hard I seem to be doing impossibles I can't get my front finger to lift the board but hopefully day 2 will improve your tricks are flawless wow it's like actual skating it's gonna take me ages to Ollie but I'll keep trying

    coming from a not so advanced fingerboarder...much easier on foam.
    i can ollie, slide and do most kick flip i land...but with a teck deck i can barely ollie and it feel lacking control bad.

    Foam grip tape honestly sucks, I literally lost my ability to do any tricks after I got a performance series tech deck and my arm would just freeze up every time. Switched back to a normal tech deck and I was immediately able to do everything again. So basically performance series boards are a scam

    @sittingduck422 ducky tape is my personal preference. Not only is the grip INTENSE, long lasting amd easy to clean, its transparent which makes customizing the top of the board with stickers or markers completely unique to any user. My current setup has the @blackriverrampsoffical "uncommon pleasure" sticker under the grip. Opens up the world of creativity
