How often do you guys put a fresh sheet of tape on your decks? I recently just had my tape wear out, the sides were starting to fray up from the edges, so i threw a new sheet on, butnow however i dont have anymore tape and i have an everslick coming... Face Palm

so i was wondering, how often do you change your tape? What kind of tape is it?

I changed mine..... hmmmm about 3 months after i first applied the first piece, and it is foamy goodness

I don't change my tape... I've had my morningwood for about 3/4 of a month, and that came used. The tape is severely worn out. It's wearing out around the edges, and it's peeling off. But I looovvveee it. Hey Johnathan, what tape is that?

My Cuatro Ive had for at least three months, and the tape on that is also worn out, but I haven't changed it.

I like fresh grip. I'm experimenting with my own grip on a TD and it was kick ass for two months. I just replaced it though. I change my grip anywhere from two to three months. Anchor Tape lasts pretty long.

Every few months I guess. Eventually it starts peeling, so you have to change it.

its weird these days that the new tapes fray off at the edges. i replace them when they dont look good. afterall if u fb enough, the tape will wear in pretty quickly
