How to Apply Grip Tape on a Scooter

Maintain control of your stunt scooter with a fresh sheet of grip tape. Although you can attach grip tape independently, there are several steps involved. Our scooter specialist Mike is ready to guide you through the procedure:

1. Initially, measure both your deck and grip tape.
2. Turn the grip tape over and record your measurements.
3. Employ a ruler and a sharp knife to cut your grip tape.
4. At this point, detach the brake, axle, and deck ends.
5. Peel off the backing from the top portion of your grip tape and position it over the deck.
6. Ensure it is aligned and begin adhering it to the deck.
7. Utilise the protective paper to eliminate any air bubbles.
8. Create 2 small incisions in the grip tape at the end of the deck.
9. Next, score the grip tape along the deck's edges.
10. With a sharp knife, cut steadily along the sides of the deck.
11. Gradually proceed around the rear of the deck.
12. If necessary, smooth the sharp edges.

Your scooter is now equipped with grip!
