Just had two sets of SQUID grip arrive in prompt time.Definately the best grip i,ve ever used.If anything it grips too well. On one takeoff i was too far up front and could not slide back at all. But its all good. And such a nice shade of blue?

I was thinking of trying that pad thingy you stick on the back of the board to keep your feet from sliding off. Anyone know who makes them? :roll:
