FAQs about VukGripz Hockey Grip Tape

Popular Questions about Hockey Stick Tape

What is the Best Hockey Tape?

The best hocky tape gives players the ability to control their stick without adding grip pressure to do so. With traditional cloth tape, the surface wears quickly leaving players with a smooth, gripping surface not creating much friction at all. And, cloth tape will hold moisture of any kind adding weight and slipperiness!

Rubber are also not ideal as those use sticky and tacky adhesive coatings only on the top layer of the hockey stick tape. Those adhesives wear quickly leaving players with simply, a piece of rubber on their stick with low surface energy. And, these grips are also slippery when wet, sweaty, and cold!

VukGripz Hockey Stick Tape is the best hockey tape in the world with proven science backed by real product tests! This hockey grip tape focuses 100% on friction to enhance grip! Because of it's raised texture, once a minimal amount of pressure is applied by the hand, the grip texture spreads apart essentially grabbing the hand/glove! This creates high surface energy allowing you to "Grip Lighter while Holding Tighter!" This will increase relaxation in your hands, wrists, fingers, arms, and upper body allowing you to gain more fluidity in your movements! This will return more stick control and high shot speed! Plus, VukGripz hockey stick grip tape is reusable! If you break your stick, simply remove our grip tape and reapply it to a new stick in sections! Lastly, VukGripz is the only American Made Hockey Grip Tape in the world!

Do Players want Thin or Thick Hockey Stick Tape?

Players want a thin feel when it comes to their hockey stick! A bulky handle will decrease the range of motion (ROM) and ability to quickly adjust the hand on the stick. Those two factors will hinder a player's ability to achieve the performance they wish! Most players still use cloth hockey tape because it is so thin; it's inexpensive because you get a lot in a roll; and it provides some grip! So, it's become a type of ritual for players to take off their tape after short use and apply new tape.

VukGripz has changed the game with its new hockey stick grip! It's design is low-profile like cloth tape, but actually has a raised texture on its surface. The slip resistance is the top in the world in any playing condition! Players are now able achieve:

  • a thin feel
  • a hockey tape that does the gripping for them
  • a durable option for any level of play
  • a reusable option that can be removed from one stick and applied to another
  • is proudly being made in the USA
  • an alternative that actually makes them play better
  • the only hockey grip tape that can be wrapped completely smooth without any raised edges/overlaps

Thin hockey tape or grip is the best option for all players! No rubber grip will be as thin as VukGripz or traditional hockey tape! Make the investment into VukGripz actually gain more performance!

Is Friction Better than Sticky/Tacky Hockey Grips?

Sticky and tacky grip enhancements have been around for decades. First it was cloth tape or coban grip tape! Both of those options were thin and able to be stick to keep players locked in. The was durability and the stickiness getting onto the gloves and staying on the stick (not clean removal).

Next came rubber grips. Rubber grips sounded like a stellar idea. The issue was that the grips were thick. Making the grips thinner only made the grips less durable. And, no rubber grip includes 100% adhesive coverage. So, it makes this option needing to be installed with an overlap (raised edges that fray like tape).

VukGripz is the first and only 100% friction-based and friction-focused hockey stick tape company in the world! Our technology grips through the most extreme tests like covering it with water, sweat, dirt, mud, ice and even motor oil! If players want the best hold on their stick, our raised grip technology is the way to go!

How Long Does Hockey Tape Last?

There is "give and take" here when it comes to hockey tape.

Cloth Tape:

  • Inexpensive...you get a lot in a roll
  • it's thin which means it doesn't last long due to installation properties
  • it absorbs all moisture all of the time
  • it tears into the hockey glove palms causing those to wear out

Rubber Hockey Grips:

  • Thicker than cloth tape
  • Added thickness makes durability better
  • Added thickness gets in the way of players performance and ultimately hurts stick control and your performance
  • raised edges and ends creating high traffic, wear points
  • absorbs moisture which breaks down the grip

VukGripz Hockey Grip Tape:

  • low-profile design like cloth tape
  • can be wrapped edge to edge (smooth) to eliminate added wear during use
  • 100% adhesive coverage allowing the entire grip to adhere to the stick
  • doesn't absorb moisture keeping its properties intact during extended use

The "Golden Rule" applies here! You either want:

  • Fast Install, Cheap Cost but bad durability/performance (Cloth Hockey Tape and Rubber Grips)
  • Fast Install, Great durability but cost may be higher (premium hockey tape option is VukGripz

Do NHL Players Use Hockey Grip Tape?

Almost every NHL Player uses some kind of hockey tape on their stick! Again, not many like thick handles. So, you'll see cloth tape as a popular choice as it is inexpensive and you get a larger roll of it!

VukGripz makes premium hockey stick tape designed for players who want maximum grip without bulky layers. Our advanced hockey stick grip tape features a thin profile with thousands of micro-grip textures that lock your hands in place—no excess buildup, no constant re-taping.
