Mr. Piggy's Griptape
Welcome to Mr.Piggy's Griptape!
As of right now I offer custom Griptape designs, which is the reason for name of the company. Spoiler alert: my next drop will be custom deck designs with a new board or your current setup.
So the essential part of this business is selling and making great quality griptape that everyone will love and order again.
So my company, as of right now, offers griptape and custom griptape designs. We want the buyer (you) to enjoy every little part of that grip from the way its cut to how it feels, looks, and essentially everything, EVERYTHING you would want on your griptape. Like I said, in the next drop there will be graphic designs for your board or a new deck with griptape.
What is Griptape?
One of the most essential parts to any type of skateboard: griptape. Griptape is on the top of a skateboard and is sort of like emery or sand paper that is used on the skateboard and is glued onto the top of the deck to give the grit and gripiness for the stability to do various tricks such as ollies, kickflips, varial heelflips, heelflips - essentally any trick that you need to use your foot to flick the board and helps to give a secure footing for tricks. I will tell you this: I skate my own griptape and I can assure you the design lasts, looks great and bright, and does not fade or ruin.
How did Mr.Piggy get its name?
I have an older brother who I came up with the nickname, Piggy. I like pigs because of their funny looks & how they act while skating. Mr. Piggy's Griptape, I thought, would be a good, fun company name to start based off my two favorite things...pigs and skating. So I threw together the idea of putting a pig on a skateboard and thought that a griptape company named Mr.Piggy's Griptape would be good because it's fairly priced, funny, and great quality.

Why do I need Griptape?
You NEED griptape. Why, you may ask. Griptape is very important! It's what keeps you on your board so you have more grip hence the name. And don't forget! You can't do tricks without it.
You may also think, "Why is it rough?"
Well its rough to give you grip on your board and when you do a trick and use your foot to flick the nose or the tail, your shoe will wear down - a lot. But keep skating because it WILL happen. The grip is rough and has grit so it can bring the board up with you rather than it falling right under you (see picture above - the board is moving with the skater because he has griptape while doing an ollie).
You can do many designs for your griptape and there are plenty to go around, which is why Mr.Piggy's Griptape lets you to customize the board however you want. Choose from one of our creative designs. The choice is yours. You can either use your own sheets of griptape or we can use ours. We just want you to have the perfect grip that is customized to your liking.
