Just a few of my grip jobs over the last 2 yrs or so. I never go too crazy/ think about it much, but I do like to do something different on each one

Nice. I’m partial to the Charlie Brown stripe one.

Thx! a few of those tiny scrap "mosaic" pieces required a lil dab or two of super glue under em,  to ensure they didn't slide around/ get ejected while actually skating.
but then were all good for the life of the deck after that..

Pretty sure CCS does photo upload grip prints costs like $15 for a sheet but it’s possible.

My Gonz grip arrived yesterday

Going on the shop wall, shits to good to be stepping all over.

I've got a sheet of Pepper Galaxy and a sheet of Pepper Salt clear and a deck with pink top and bottom plies that would be a crime to fully cover.

95% the time I ride plain black grip.

This time I want to show off this sexy top ply.

I'm not creative in design hence, this post.

My only ideas so far are splitting it right down the middle longways, half sheet Galaxy half sheet clear for the pink and black contrast. Or maybe cut it at an angle to cover one end from kick to mid board slanted Galaxy, other half clear. Shit Idk could just do all Galaxy for the sparkle and cut some big ass star outlines into the sides. Or two thin lines horizontal at each end between the bolt holes. I prefer whatever layout to be symmetrical.

Do things get fucky over time depending the amount and types of cuts you make?

I know people have far better ideas so let's hear!

I know what I would do. One big stripe down the complete middle if the board, straight over the bolt holes with the clear grip. And both sides the galaxy grip. Would look like a fast racing car with a sick pink stripe. I hope that explaination made sense.

Makes sense, thank you, that'd probably look really good!
