How to remove griptape from your board the fast and easy way
There are just 2 steps to remove griptape from your board fast and easy.
1. Let your board sit on a heater for a few minutes
2. Loosen the griptape with a knife (or other sharp object) on the edge of your nose or tail
3. Pull off the griptape in a straight line
Tools:
Skateboard deck (gripped)
Knife (or other thin, sharp object)
Heater
How To:
Turn up the heater to it's maximum.
Put your board on top or in front of the heater. Make sure it catches the heat but doesn't catch fire (depending on your heater, act wisely). Let it sit for about a minute and flip the board around to do the same thing to the other side of the griptape.
Start loosening the edge of the griptape at the nose or tail side of the board. Use a knife or other sharp object to do this and loosen the griptape just enough so you can have a good, firm grip on it.
Now hold the board down with your knee or foot and start pulling off the griptape in a straight line towards you. Make sure you use both hands to pull it off straight. If your not pulling it straight the griptape might rip.
Continue until you removed the whole sheet of griptape and you're all done!!
Optionally, it's time to put on some new griptape. In our next video we will show you the quickest way to grip a skateboard.
