How to destroy Griptape 

like others have said. step 1 seting back foot in position. step 2 is darkslide and if done right it wont damage ur grip eather.. u slide on the edge of ur board so if ur board isn't compleatly griped no wories.

Griptape is cheaper than a new board or a broken ankle, foot placement is key to performing a trick and landing it.

hahaha awesome, yeah I tried everything too, burning with volatile liquids, having a rabid cat attack me and use my griptape as a shield, and I even tried rubbing dirt and mud all over the top of it. The last one was the most successful and least dangerous, I reccommend that.

@skateforlife162 That wasn't a Dark Slide, that was some kid trying to do a Kickflip-Boardslide, failing, lading on his deck upside down, and sliding half an inch before falling off.

finally an explanation !!!! so stoked ill try not move my feet on the board next time!

Step 1 is actually ruining the sole of the shoe more than the grip tape. Never do step 1, kids.

wiggling your back foot doesnt ruin griptape. it fines it. but then again you dont need rear griptape for anything anyways. its not like you slide with your backfoot. only on fakie tricks or nollie

Imagine that happening every say for the next 3 months. May not seem like much but it still destroys it.

just the natural way the feel comfortable on a board like it is being regular for me

jessup is what they usually put on a west 49 board if they grip it for u

In the beginning it doesn't destroy griptape,it destroys your grip on your shoes.

I dont know if you know but Mullen is the best skater because he invented all the tricks that MikeMo, Koston and everyone else are doing.

landing a dark slide would be well worth some ruined grip tape.

That ledge looks sick!

Hey its Napoleon Dynamite at the end!

i use ketchup in packages because its quieter than bottled ketchup

dudes grip tape costs 5 $ on purpose because it's meant to b worn out and step 2 is called dark slide and it's a cool trick

wow this dude should take dancing lessons with all his "footwork" abilities

Im w8n on the "How to destroy an ankle" version!

BEASTIE BOYS!!!!!!!!! love this song lol

he's twisting his back foot into place, when you do that is pulls up the grip tape from the tail.

I've broken more trucks and boards more then I've ruined grip tape.. wait I never ruined my grip tape. barf

When I was learning the kickflip, my griptape got destroyed.

I think thats a biker going really fast

good way of wearing your shoes too

I'M GOING TO LAND IN DARKSLIDE BUT NEVER LAND IT BUT PEOPLE WILL THINK I'M SICK. Poza

thats why instead of piviting my foot I just lift if up and put it in place

that probably ruins the shoe more than the griptape

umm peoples theres no way to protect ur griptape if u skate cuz u will always not land flip tricks and such and the grip will land face down so yh

im pretty sure almost everyone including myself does that little rubby thing... and it would affect your shoes way more

How to destroy griptape and a board? Run it into bodies of water.

hm, i could definitely use these tips on how to destroy my shoes and griptape.

@SkateSurfSnowMedia yeah, so im just saying, i live in a really poor family, and we always want to save as much money as possible. see, i have a skateboard, ive been using it for 2 years, and i haven't switched griptape, or switched anything on it, because we cant afford that. my griptape is so messed up, its not even griptape anymore

@chocolatesk8r101 PSH i skate until my board snaps :P or chips away. and that all depends on where i skate at. (boards tend to snap more on super high ledges :p)

get a little of the part off. then, get a blow dryer. Make it melt and slowly pull it off. It could take an hour but normally 20 minutes. Dont use a razor!!!!!

i always spray a bit water and rub the griptape with my skate shoe

Darkslides deserve more respect.

rofl that music was awesome

good video that is true wrecks griptape

dude at 33 looks exactly like me O.O haha darkslides ruin it HELLAH, lol i cracked my board yesterday cuz of a boardslide XD i went for a backside but ollied high enough to switch to frontside, hehe landed it too

wiggling your foot apparently

@Ozzoman88 Well, it is like glue, but when it dryes it is like a new soul :)

That fucks up the grip on your shoe...
