The big EDGE TAPE thread.

[Kaizoku]

I would just like to express my love for the Nittaku stripe guard blue version edge tape, it's beautiful, it has a silky smooth outside and sticks well.
I don't even Nittaku, but man dat edge tape.

Although optimally I have to say I would prefer the Blue Nittaku edge tone with the same silky smooth outside as Stripe guard....
Y u no make dis Nittaku

This is what I use... the sidetape I mean.

i agree with Kaizoku , that's the best looking and the texture is cool.... but i think is a little expensive

 

[bobpuls]

Nice looking this tape.

I use DHS provincial side tape, planning to upgrade to the national as soon as I save enough money.

Hahaha
That sounds good. I gotta have that and also the national underwear as well as the national handkerchiefs.

Now if that doesn't make me a better player, then nothing will....

 

[Suga D]

Talking about edge tapes.....I can't decide which is my favourite.

I don't wanna be repeating myself, but THAT is really amazing, Turbo.
And i must correct myself, you don't run a store. This rather looks as if you own a factory.

Is that just for yourself or for your whole league?

But beware. You cant buy it from store. They may be fake. You have to know someone in the chinese team to get it.

I thought so, that won't be an easy mission, but i know someone who knows someone's uncle's neighbour who knows their secret handshake while flapping the ears and wiggling the toes...

Now I know why I keep messing up the handshake.

Haha...I think they are all just for me, myself and I. Usually I will add 2 or 3 to the shopping cart whenever I placed an order and a few bucks does not seems to hurt much so that is what I end up with.

May be I can pick 2 that I like to share. One from Butterfly which ZJK is still using and one from DHS which says Hurricane. Too bad it is not Provincial or National of any kind. The ZJK one is simply the best quality edge tape I have ever seen. It got embossed white printings on a thick blue cloth material. It is on a class of its own but does not cost any extra. The DHS Hurricane is just the opposite which is cheap, thin, not sticking well and provide next to no protection. I only like the design and color that goes with many blue handle DHS blades. I believe they are both out of print and hard to find now.

Don't forget to boost it with vegetable oil once you get one. You will get extra spin when you hit the ball with an edge

 

[Kokain]

Just put tempo booster in my car as an oil change alternative. Engines runs better and tyres have more spin

Oh, I see, using vegetable oil to boost National version of underwear gets you more spin!

Now I see what I've been doing wrong. What kind of rubbers should I use with that!

Ok, about that edge tapes, i have several from almost same brand of the blade [not the rubber] unless i can't find of that blade or wasn't good, then i will use the rubber brand name edge tapes.

From what i have now, the best looking is the Butterfly one [pink or purple logo - blue].

 

[UpSideDownCarl]

I think that says it all.

 

[romanzdk]

this is my setup

 

[bobpuls]

Isn't this tape to wide ? Normaly the rubber has to be seen. And now if you hit the edge with ball it goes a strange ways.

My tape is this wide, my rubber is protected as well, and I should not be hitting the ball with the edge anyways and if it is a good shot, the effect is marginal.

Such an edge tape job adds 2 weeks to the effective life of Ur Tenergy, so good job.
