A grip tape's lifespan varies greatly depending on how much you ride your scooter, what tricks you're doing, and what conditions you’re riding in. If you ride daily and constantly get moisture on the grip tape, it can wear down in a few weeks. If you don’t ride too often and keep it dry, it can last as long as a year. Griptape should always feel gritty and prevent your shoes from sliding easily across the deck. If yours lacks grit and your foot can move easily, it’s time to replace your grip tape!
