Powell Peralta Checker Ripper

At 10 inches wide, this sheet is designed primarily for wider decks, such as old-school shapes, cruisers, or wide popsicle boards. If you are riding a standard 8-inch or 8.5-inch deck, you will have plenty of excess material to trim, but ensure your board width does not exceed 10 inches.

The foil finish is primarily aesthetic and does not compromise the grit or traction of the tape. It provides the same reliable surface for foot placement as standard griptape, ensuring you maintain control during tricks and maneuvers.

Like any printed griptape, the graphic will eventually show wear from the friction of your shoes. However, the print is durable enough to maintain its visual impact through standard skating sessions.

Application is straightforward, but because of the 10-inch width, you should take extra care when smoothing it down to avoid air bubbles. Use a file or the edge of a screwdriver to score the edges before trimming with a razor blade for a clean, professional finish.
