Why buy Legacy Scooter Griptape?

Q

What are the characteristics of Legacy griptape?

A

Legacy grip tape uses medium-coarse grit for balanced traction. It’s not as harsh as some pro-level tapes but still provides plenty of grip for tricks. The adhesive backing sticks firmly to aluminium decks and resists peeling, making it ideal for riders who need dependable grip without flashy graphics.

Q

Does Legacy offer different patterns?

A

Legacy’s designs are understated. Most sheets are solid black with a white Legacy logo cut-out or printed on the surface. This minimalist look appeals to riders who prefer subtle branding or plan to apply stickers over the grip.

Q

What size does the tape come in?

A

Typical dimensions are around 5 inches by 22 inches—long enough to fit standard decks and leave room for trimming. You can cut it to fit narrower decks or irregular shapes.

Q

How long will it last?

A

With regular riding, Legacy grip tape should last several months. It maintains its grit longer than many budget options due to the quality of the abrasive material. Replace it when the surface becomes smooth or dirt and wear cause loss of traction.

Q

Can I reposition it after application?

A

No. Once the tape adheres, removing it can weaken the adhesive. Take care to align the tape correctly on the first try to avoid bubbles and wrinkles.

Q

Is it suitable for beginners?

A

Yes. The medium grit offers enough grip without being overly rough on shoes or skin. Beginners learning to balance and do basic tricks will find it comfortable and secure.

Q

Does it work with all scooters?

A

Legacy grip tape fits most scooter decks, but check the size to ensure it covers the entire deck. It sticks best to clean, dry aluminium surfaces.

Q

How do I remove worn Legacy grip?

A

Heat the tape with a hair dryer to soften the adhesive, then peel it back slowly. Remove any residue with rubbing alcohol. Apply a new sheet when the deck is clean and dry.
