just curious..

how often do you guys find yourself regripping your skate? (how often do you ride)

i just regripped mine and didn't realize how bad i needed it until i rode today...fresh grip + butter = sex

ive never regriped a skate, i like riding a raw ass skate with hardly any grip, feels nice.

I normally break a board before I have to re-grip it.

if u can rub ur finger over the grip tape and it feels smooth, its time for some fresh tape, but its not a major issue but it def helps to have good grip, its is the connection between u and ur board

When I rode my NEW, I re-gripped at least once a month, I don't plan on re-gripping my Integ. for a looong time.
