Add Grip Tape to a Scooter on a Budget

This is an easy time save, slip-proof, cheap way to add grip tape to a scooter. It looks great and feels great.

Steps

  1. Go to your local hardware store or a shop that sells door mats, make sure you look at the mat and see if it grips enough then pay for it and bring it home.
  2. Get the wanted scooter out and place the mat on it and cut out the shape of the deck.
  3. Get a drill out and drill screws into the mat and then into the deck (three rows of three).
  4. Try it out at your local park.

Tips

  • When applying the mat see if it has more grip on the other side.
  • If taking one from home make sure you ask first otherwise you might get grounded and not be able to try it out at the skate park.

Warnings

  • Don't drill your finger
  • Make sure you wear a helmet and pads (optional)

Things You'll Need

  • Drill/Screwdriver (Using the drill is easier)
