So just as a little update, Skate Warehouse e-mailed me again and said I wasn't allowed to buy 10 sheets of grip. That was in fact TOO MUCH Pepper for one individual and I must be a reseller. So they forced me to lower the order to 2 sheets. wtf even skate warehouse is cops these days.

What the fuck does it matter to them what your gonna do with your 10 sheets of pepper, not chill skate warehouse, not chill at all, I haven’t bought from an online store front in years but if and when I have to I won’t be going to skate warehouse, putting a fucking cap on griptape, wack, wack all around

Smoked paprika is one of my favorite seasonings and I think all of us should start a brand based on smoked paprika that also makes grip. Pepper is everywhere, no need to single it out really.

With you on that smoked paprika being the shiz line of thought.
Also a key ingredient in that Shaksuka I’ve been pushing in the Neen/raw eggs thread.
Super so good!

I wanna play you in a game of SKATE for the right to continue talking shit on me… You think you got me?

Skate Warehouse only lets you buy 2x all items. Kind of a bummer when it costs so much to ship here to Canada but they do offer a good service.

I mean it kind of prevents scenarios where people buy up a bunch of shit to resell it and then people get pissed at Skate Warehouse for not having stock. Probably not as much of an issue now than during peak covid but I could see why they do it. Could still up the number from 2 by now though.

This explains why my order for 2 sets of the same wheel was marked pending when I first confirmed it. At the time, I thought maybe they just didn't have the stock in their warehouse yet which I thought was kinda iffy. Next time I checked they were confirmed so they must have some kind of quantity alerts build into their ordering system. I back it.

Figured I might as well provide another update. Skate Warehouse followed up with me on my response that I wasn’t a reseller, just a skater stocking up on $3.74 sheets of Pepper Grip and agreed to ship me my full order. So I will have all 10 sheets if anyone wants to buy some from me it’s $8/sheet! Thanks!

I retract my statement, if I ever buy from an online retailer again it may well be skate warehouse, glad they sorted themselves out, get your money boo-boo

In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the pepper grip tape, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

Super so good!

I'll check out that recipe. When I made shakshuka, I overpowered it with cumin and cilantro, and I felt like I was eating some kind of scented candle for breakfast. That sophisticated smokiness would have done better, imo.

Put some on a new board. When I noticed it was perforated I was bummed, because I don't like Mob that much.

It felt pretty gritty. I usually sand down both sides of my nose, for my flippies. I've only skated it a couple times. I definitely would consider riding with it again.

Maybe I had the bad batch of MOB that I heard was released in the first or so year of the pandemic, but I did not like it at all. I also skated a board that I hated the shape of. Would only try again if I had no other choice

one time I bought nutmeg then I added a bunch of what I thought was cumin but it was the nutmeg. And I added way to much. That description is perfect, it tasted like I was eating incense covered food. I threw the rest of the food out and threw all the nutmeg out so it would never happen again.

I think it’s grippier.
It feels a bit more coarse in hand.
Not sure how it’ll hold up in the long run.

I tried some. Grippier than jessup, imo. Went on easy enough, I’m trash at gripping boards. New shoes and the new grip, sucked. I am too conditioned to jessup, I think. I’d like to skate mob, but I can’t figure it out. My ‘flick’ is too shitty to work with mob or something.

I stopped skating the board with pepper grip, just because I like a different setup I have better, grip wasn’t a factor in that choice.

I’d try pepper again. Haven’t tried miles, would like to

My wife freaked out yesterday. She found this Chinese condiment that she loves (Waipa), in a vegan version. A friend introduced her to to the regular stuff years ago (which she said was a game-changer for cooking) and since she started seeing me, she always thought cooking would be so much easier if there was a vegan version. It just came out at the beginning of the month.

So we went home and she whipped up some ramen for everyone.

Of course, I like some white pepper with mine, and I gotta say, it was really good.

I snapped the tail on my board with Pepper on my second session. It didn’t feel any grippier than Jessup, which is on the board I skated right after.

I work with sandpaper constantly and have every grip from 40 to 800 in my shop. Mob is 60 grit and Jessup feels about 80. Pepper felt like 80 as well. I could be completely wrong but this is the highly scientific test of me touching and looking at them.

I’ve got one sheet left. I dunno if it cursed my last deck.

Yeah the lower the number the.  rougher it is. The higher number the smoother it is. The number is like the size of the grit on the paper or the amount of particles to fill an area. Kinda like thread counts on sheets. I may be wrong about this.

40-60 is like for stripping material off the surface easily and it usually leaves fairly deep marks on hardwood. 80 less so but same general purpose. 100 starts getting smoother and once you get over 180 it feels extremely smooth and is generally for polishing and finishing.

Prob why Mob is a pain in the ass to grip with but also sticks really well. I think Grizzly is around 100 it felt really slippery.

Bump. I love this grip. Always been a regular Jessup or Jessup Ultra guy, but I dig this stuff. Has a bit of a sheen to it when the light hits it but doesn't bug my OCD too bad. One random thing about it, not sure if it's easy to remove grip with other brands but one of my boards recently that had Pepper on it, got really chewed up and filthy at this one spot. I was bored so I took a blade and dug underneath just on the edge then just ripped the whole sheet off pretty easily in like 2-3 big pieces. Then regripped on top of the bolts and it revitalized my board and got me stoked. Never gripped over the bolts before but I dig it. Lastly, this grip slices like pure butter, especially with a brand new blade.

Just set up a deck with pepper recently. Reminds me of black magic grip but it’s thicker and cuts a lot better. Would buy again.

I think I’m a pepper guy now. I’ve had it on for a couple months now. It’s dirty has hell from dusty spots. But it isn’t balding like jessup or myself  and doesn’t cancel my flick like mob sometimes does.
