grip tape art...

[chillout]

i dont really do grip art anymore; instead i use a silver bolt to differenciate between nose and tail, but winter has turned all my bolts silver so i got a little simple "art" going

i like the cut of your jib

This is one I did years ago, I remember it took forever to cut out but was very satisfying to apply to the deck. I did another one that was made up of Tetris blocks but unfortunately I don't have any pics of it.

Wow that looks really good, I would never have the patience to do something like that.

I love that. I feel like beyond the patience of actually applying it, it would get distracting at times. Still though, it looks sick as fuck.

Wow.

If I didnt destroy the grip tape from skating, then I would definitely try to get a little creative.

don't know if it qualifies as 'art' but this is the shit logan lara has been running recently.

[Spike Hawke]

One I did for a buddy

I wouldn't consider it art at all since it's unoriginal and basic but it's cathartic. Gripping a board to me now is as calming as smoking weed to me was as a teen. Before anyone rips on the pink I'm aware it's lame and usually only use black but i got a roll for $25. I've started using crafting glue between the segments to avoid peel and it works pretty well.

isnt this kostons grip on tony hawks pro skater?

[coneklr]

My friend makes some really awesome grip and is amazing at making stencils.  So when I have an idea I shoot it to him and he makes it.  He's done my instagram one and a series of danger mouse characters for me.  I'll try to get pics up when I can.  

Here is one of the instagrip while we were working on a diy spot

It isn't art for me, I just write a couple phrases on my grip. Just a little motivation, I guess.
One says "Fuck it!" near the nose, the other says "Land it, kook!". I'm dumb, I know.

Just drawing what I see

Mate, thats sick. Dont think I could skate it down to not wanting to ruin it and being heavily distracted

[oldgoodburger]

on my cruiser:
its the Albany skyline. not the most original idea since i stole it from somebody who did the same thing with SF on here but, i figured what the hell and did it anyways.
