    My Dad taught me to put a strip of tape on the bottom of the blade then start taping. Saved alot moisture on the bottom, hence the the stick lasted longer. Thanks Dad

      hockey blade abrasive grip tapes are illegal to use in sanctioned games cause the deterioration to the puck causes it to roll, non-abrasive tapes like cats tongue are amazing. They even sell fitted protector kits and even some with webbing or bumps on it. I always used the waterproof tapes, they seemed to last the longest for blade protection.

    @lucas_k23 3 года назад +10

    The problem with taping from heel to toe is that every time you shoot, the puck moves towards the toe and curls up each tape section after a while. Toe to heel is the way to go.

    • @davetechme
      @davetechme Год назад

      Ultimately, I don't think it matters that much but I switched from TTH to HTT because I noticed the tape freying less at the bottom since it's with the grain when skating forward, and I figure going against the grain on shots/passes might make for a little more grip for puck spin. I think it also makes trimming the toe easier.

    • @roguishpaladin
      @roguishpaladin Год назад

      As a heel-to-toe taper, I make a point of making each time around really tight and running a puck along it from heel to toe several times on front and back to make sure it's smooth. Not sure if it's as effective for those who favor white tape on their blade, but it works fine for me with black tape.

    • @pnshr88
      @pnshr88 3 года назад

      For pretty much any player, when playing on ice your blade is constantly getting wet from melted ice. Blades are coated with a high grade polymer for strength and longevity so they're basically super smooth and also non abrasive so not to scuff the puck up. Cause chewed rubber tends to start to wobble and roll end over end. Tape on the stick basically provides a better traction point then a naturally smooth wet blade.
      Oh and for us novices/non-pros blade replacements are too dayum expensive to continually replace so tape is a for sure must.
