I wasn't able to get hold of any Jimmy Lewis Deck Grip. Where can I get some plain deck grip from in Melbourne? It seems I am limited to the naish camo or the creatures grip.

Oliver go the creatures grip,I've gone through two Naish camo's they look good but don't stickLucky for me, the crew at Raw on the GC give awesome after sales service and replaced them with a creatures

I would like to add a clear grip for the nose,a couple of times I've headed for the nose and slipped off

Mac, a bit off topic, but have you had the original Naish grip replaced with the new stuff and still no stick??

If that's the case I may just go for the creatures stuff as well (I am waiting on a replacement Naish grip at the moment)

aus, as the saying goes JUST DO IT! I wanted to stay with the Naish grip.OK I am a real fussy bugger (ask the team at RAW)and the camo looks the goods,but I soon got the dirts with it,every time I rode the thing it came off and wreaked my dayThe creatures is stuck fast and looks fine with the kick pad,gee a kick pad on a 11.4 hmm,can't see that getting any use

Put a Creatures pad on my 9'6" which is great, might not look as good as the original Naish but way better stick and I reckon it's more comfortable. SHQ in Melbourne were fantastic, credited me the full cost of the Creatures pad.

You can get plain Creatures grip without the edge bits and graphics in 60cm x 60cm sheets. Great grip but not cheap at $100 a sheet.

Howdy Sam,
I am looking for some sheet to cut up into bits to do the chip pad thing. Are these creatures sheets about the best and cheapest large amount of grip that can be bought?
Regards,
Scott

Interesting! Where can you buy this from? Pity it's so damn expensive.

Hi Scott and Oliver,

These are the cheapest plain sheets I have in store at the moment but I'm always searching. It might get a bit cheaper for a couple of sheets.

Sam.

Ive got some mixed eva deck grip sheets that i will be puting on the "for sale" section of sea breeze in the next day or two.
Ive got about 8 different sheets of varying length, grooves and colors. (black)
Ill put them in some seperate packs for about $35 each.
Theyre left over from some protypes i was involved with.
I should have some pictures up by Friday.
If any body needs some more info let me know.
Hope this helps.

We also have full Creatures pads for $179 including rail wedges and tail kicker.

It is about 2 meters long and with 9 individual pieces it is easy to apply and can fit any board.



I also have off cuts of the PSH grip (for mosaic decks) at half price - 1.8m $90.

Hope this helps!
