Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape Installation
If you are a hockey player, you know how important it is to have the right grip on your stick. That's where Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape comes in. This high-quality grip tape is designed to provide maximum grip, comfort and durability, so you can play your best game every time.
But how do you install it? Here is a comprehensive guide to help you install Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape like a pro.
What you will need
Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary tools and materials. Here's what you'll need:
- Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape
- Hockey stick
- Hockey tape
- Scissors
- Hair dryer or heat gun (optional)
Preparing the stick
The first step in installing Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape is to prepare the stick. Start by removing any old tape from the blade and handle. Use a hair dryer or heat gun to soften the adhesive and make it easier to remove.
Once the old tape is removed, clean the stick with rubbing alcohol to remove any dirt or residue. This will help the new grip tape adhere better to the stick.
Let the stick dry completely before moving on to the next step.
Applying the grip tape
Now it's time to apply the Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape. Start at the bottom of the handle and wrap the tape around the stick, overlapping each layer slightly. Make sure the tape is tight and smooth, with no wrinkles or creases.
Continue wrapping the tape up the handle, making sure to leave enough space for your top hand to grip the stick comfortably. You can use scissors to trim the excess tape if necessary.
Once you reach the blade, wrap the tape around it a few times to provide extra protection and grip. Again, make sure the tape is tight and smooth.
Finishing touches
With the grip tape applied, it's time to add the finishing touches. Start by wrapping a few layers of hockey tape around the top of the handle, covering the end of the grip tape. This will help prevent the grip tape from unraveling or coming loose.
You can also use hockey tape to add additional grip and padding to specific areas of the stick, such as the heel or toe of the blade.
Conclusion
Installing Lizard Skins Hockey Grip Tape is an easy and effective way to improve your grip and control on the ice. With the right tools and a little bit of patience, you can install the grip tape yourself and start playing your best game yet.
