Just to let you know... Demo boards were used for like 6 hours straight today and the grips are all brand new. Cold temperatures = durable grip!

And because the treatment for the grip was changed, it grips even better and the logo holds on very well. Good news indeed!

What the hell are you riding with? We all rode for 6 hours straight yesterday without any problem. The grip is still grand new.

It must be the shoes you guys are using... I've used mine outside, and carpet skated a bunch of times with it, logo is gone, but there aren't any tears in the grip. Its holding up well for me so far. Xtreme grip is going on soon anyways...

As I have said many times, the graphic issue has been fixed.

As for the grip tearing, like Steven said, it must be your shoes or something. I ride my ICOs and it doesn't tear a bit. The Quebecers had some big boots, Quimp had some regular boots, some people had snowboard boots or skate shoes and all the boards are perfect.

As for X-treme grip, I am very happy to say that I will not be needing it. I am used to riding with X-treme grip and I am unable to ride any other board without it. I was very impressed to see that I could ollie just as high without it. I was also doing all sorts of flips I had never done. Maybe my ICO's have very good grip, but I don't think that's it. I was using Molteys the last years and I needed the X. Anyway, the grip lasts and grips extremly good.
