Review on ๐Ÿ’ Black Hockey Tape - Stick Tape Made in North America - 6 Rolls, 1 Inch Wide, 20 Yards Long (Cloth) - Designed Specifically for Hockey (STP946-36) by Deejay Allard

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good tape for gripping game controllers, computer mice and tablet pens.

I hold the world record for wettest hands (source: trust me bro). I'm also a bit of a competitive player with a short temper. You can probably guess how many controllers I've broken just because of slippery hands. The rubber grips wouldn't do this because, ironically, they make the controllers even more slippery when wet. I read somewhere that this tennis grip worked well for her. This product first came to my mind, so I went ahead and bought it. Works wonders. Not too noticeably grippy when you try it for the first time. If you're not used to the texture, it can even feel slippery at first. But once your hands get sweaty, they hold up much better than rubber grips. The glue can leave marks if you leave the tape on it for too long, but I've learned how to get rid of them. Just peel off some more tape and keep touching the sticky side to the surface. This will eventually absorb the remaining glue. This way you don't have to worry about scratching the controllers by wiping them or risk cleaning them with a liquid solution. As long as you change the tape every 1-2 weeks of constant use (I've been doing this for about 2 months now and I've hardly rewound a roll) this is a good alternative to rubber grips.
