yo i 2nd that i put some jessup on my flat deck and it works just fine, you just have to watch out for one thing... i donno if this happens to everyone but i had to sand it down alot on the edges because it started to peel for me. but i guess if you have a concave skate that doesn't matter

Yeah, and it sucks. It slipped off 5 minutes into riding it new. Got replacment 3M tape, and that sucked too. Jessups is the only way to go IMO.
3 sheets of skateboard size, or newwakeskates.com and devotid sell full size sheets

any one ever try that mob perforated grip, does that work or does water just get under it and make it fall off?
