JESSUP since day one. Everything else (to me) just seems not grippy and shitty.
If you get inspired to skate a certain way, how concerned are you with its popularity or acceptability within the skate world
I thought skating was popular and acceptable in the skate world. Maybe I didn't get that press release.

i stock jessup and mob at the shop, fuck everything else. free if you buy a board and 6 duckets for a sheet by itself, always free for the homies.

i would ride black magic, but my shop charges $10 per sheet while shop grip is free with a board.... bummer....

gripping a new deck is a great feeling...

I use whatever is free with the board. I don't think there's a difference.

Beats me.  I don't shop at shops that do kooky shit like sell you upgraded griptape.  They have a roll of what I assume to be jessup or something comparable and it works.

If it ain't Jessup, it ain't awesome. Seriously though. The time I had Black Magik or whatever, it peeled like shit. I had Iron Horse once and I think the board sucked so I'm gonna rule that grip sucked, too. I think I had Mob once and that was probably ok but too harsh sometimes. Yeeeah Jessup..............???

Ironic since the products are made in Asia.  But then again they're probably shipped to America and then shipped all over the world from there.  ::)

I had black magic on a muska board when I was 15. 

It was really shiny and the grit was really really fine.  Grip is grip though.

As long as it isn't fucking coloured I'm happy. 

Oh yeah...I remember when my brother's friend had a powell tony hawk with clear
grip and about 100 stickers under the clear grip.

Bro's other friend had a tony hawk with purple grip cut into zig zags.....
