Griptape on skis

Has anyone ever griptaped their skis? I was thinking it might be neat if I put grip tape on the top sheet and then did stencils or something. I'm not necessarily planning on doing this I just thought it would be neat and was wondering if any of you have

the karma's top sheet resembles grip tape

jsut grip tape the tails so you can take people for rides! try it its awesome

Work is like anti-hippie spray; they stay the fuck away from it

 
On the Old Dynastar Candide Pros ther was griptape above the front binding on both skis..... it stayed on too! it helped for protecting the skis from crosses and all that.

I had a pair so i would know.

Not wearing poles is alot like getting a blowjob from a guy...It feels good until you look down and realize you're gay.

 
^I would imagine that would scratch the bases, which are much more important than topsheet, so I don't think that's such a good idea

Screw this I'm going skiing
 
I think I'll give it a go

I'm only putting iton the 02 madtrix and i doubt it will ruin the skis, and I can always pull it off

^^^ On my Candides it was a clear substance with a bunch of diamond ridges, depending on how hot/cold it was the snowsometimes sticked but you just swiped it off and it was all good. but i still like NON griptape skis. thanx

i used to make Grip tape stickers then put them in my key grab spots (mute, tail and side of my boot). its sweet.

Here's a little experiment.... Paint your skis with spray paint... go skiing for a couple days.. look at the paint...

You'll notice that the paint on the tail disapears supper quick, because for some reason, the backs of your skis hit each other alot. Putting grip-tape on the tails of your skis would only dull your edges.

''Independence is for the very few; it is a privilege of the strong. And whoever attempts it even with the best right but without inner constraint proves that he is probably not only strong, but also daring to the point of recklessness. He enters into a labyrinth, he multiplies a thousandfold the dangers which life brings with it in any case, not the least of which is that no one can see how and where he loses his way, becomes lonely, and is torn piecemeal by some minotaur of conscience. Supposing one like that comes to grief, this happens so far from the comprehension of men that they neither feel it nor sympathize. And he cannot go back any longer. Nor can he go back to the pity of men.'' -my buddy, Fred

shitty idea... candides had a little grip tape patch except it was useless cause when the snow goes over it it becomes completely slidy... and also if your ski was all griptape and you crossed them your bases would get scratched up as fuck!

it kinda helps if you have it behind your binding. It protects your ski when you kick off your binding with the other ski

thats an excellent idea! while youre at it, why not put some trucks and wheels on the bottom too!

sometimes when im running water to wash dishes or something, i think about how lucky i am to have access to running water and how some people will never know such a simple pleasure.

then i let it run for awhile, just because i can.

 
i did that with a pair of old volkls. it didnt work to good. to flexy, even though they were stiff skis.

in science class i sat down to fast and you know how you can sit on your balls. well i did and i sat down really fast and crushed them and right when i sat down i started puking and fell out of my chair. they teacher laughed. i felt like i could pass out i wanted to die.-*NWFT*nUkkA

It has been done, sure makes the ski look boring but hey you suck and no one is gonna notice you anyways so go for it!

if you use it in order to help grab why not just put some on your gloves?

^the mans got a point. a good one at that... any way does anyone who owns karmas know how it treats your edges and bases?

 
After it got wet..it would wear down a lot probably. Probably end up getting all smooth.

that is quite jibtastic, sir.

i dont know why all of you are worried about scratching ur bases and dulling ur edges because were not talking about racing are we?

.

DRAMA...(y?)
 
^your right, if you take such good care of your skis, u really cant get better because your so affraid top drop a certain cliff or do a big ass tree rail

 
it's not like he is fucking doing it for a purpose your weirdos. it looks fucking pimp, i saw it..quit thinking in to it so much. jesus

hmmm well I read this entire thread...very gay...but I was thinking at first...Id like to do something to protect my edges...so i thought why not just put duct tape or something on the inside edges of your skis...then when you cross em and shit the edges will just hit the duct tape and cut it up instead of your nice topsheet and sull the edges...I dont know if It would work in application but it sounds good in theory
