I dig it. It's how I did many boards after recycling grip tape back in the 80's when ever company just about made fail boards that broke in a week. I'd get the torn splotchy camo from having to use a hair dryer and remove grip and it rip up in fist size chunks.

Looks classic and practical.

I love it. Especially the continuous piece around the Powell logo.

Some 6'' Olfa industrial type scissors and for around the logo, an x-acto blade cutting through the paper side of the grip...Cut it all first then applied...

Hope he has another for me soon...
