|
| im new to wakeskating, my first board is gonna be a homemade one, and all i need now is grip. ive noticed that most boarders use the grip tape, but if i were to do that i would either have to wear shoes or end up with some pretty scuffed up feet, so what im looking for is someplace to buy foam grip. links would be helpful

In WBM like 3 years ago there was an ad for foam grip. Try searching that site.

haha. if u wanna ride bare-foot u could go to a surf shop and buy pads like these
could definately get expensive tho because im pretty sure those are 40-60 bucks a peice...or u could just ask someone on here and they can give u foam

There isn't anything wrong with foam, not everyone is interested in gettin all pro and getting scraped to hell in the process. Just have fun. Gator grip works really well as a replacement foam. www.wakejunky.com
