Hornet Watersports Silicone Grip Tape for Dragon Boat Paddles (Blue)

I got this to put on my Gear Labs greenland paddle and I'm very happy. I didn't want anything that would damage my paddle. This is tacky, and hold great but isn't glue and doesn't hurt the fiber. I did a 17 mile paddle with wet, sweat, and mud and it didn't loosen and provided great grip. For a full length greenland you need 2 rolls. Update. I'm very happy with the 3 stars..works great in sweat mud cold warm water. I've used it for over 60 miles of paddling and it's still on. The left grip is creeping up a little but I think that's because I wrapped it shorter due to running out of 1 roll. Use 1 roll per paddle. I bought 4 more rolls. But haven't had to change yet.

First time I've used tape on my dragon boat paddle and it works great. I watched a youtube video that shows how to put it on properly. Since getting this tape in May, I've paddled twice a week with it and competed in multi-day races every month. Only now (in August) do I have to re-apply. (The tape started to tear during my last race in July but it still provided enough grip). Overall, I got two uses out of the one roll but I was heavy on the tape the first time around. You could probably get three uses out of a roll if you skimped a bit. Just ordered another two rolls. Love this stuff.

That tape offers excellent grip.

Good grip but still slips occasionally

If you apply the tape to the paddle correctly, it stays on well for a long period of time. Keep it smooth and taut as you wind it around the grip of the paddle. Works very well.
