@Snurfer they must have changed for the plus because on v1 it wouldn't void the warranty
-
@jew_fro_1009 - I asked FM about warranty and grip tape on the V1 and they told me it would void my warranty. I'm not sure if they meant for the entire board or just for the pads if they were an issue.
-
@wr420 well if so you can always slap new footpads on before you send it in

Whenever they are actually available to buy...until then I'm waiting to re-grip

@CBR-954rr upgrading to vicious tape is so worth it in my opinion. The stock griptape is horrible. I doubt they would void the warranty for the whole board maybe just the pads.

@ahxe45
Since I currently have an open ticket with FM that I'm afraid will result in having to send the board back I am going to wait just to be safe. I agree though, the warranty shouldn't be voided unless they can prove that the modification cause the issue.
-
@CBR-954rr makes sense I wouldn't risk it either just in case. Only real issue it could cause would be something with the sensor. The first time I did mine I just put the tape directly onto the sensor and it kept getting stuck when I would try to jump off the board and continue moving for a second or two. I peeled the tape back up and put some plastic where the sensor was so it wasn't stuck directly on it and haven't had an issue since.
-
@ahxe45 yes the vicious griptape is totally worth it like i said to @CBR-954rr you can always just put new footpads on if you have to send it inj
-
@jew_fro_1009 and the footpads are not covered by the warranty just a heads up so if it says it voids the warranty they mean the whole board
-
@timvdp Did you put v2 bumpers and decks?

@riofiume Where Did You Get These Lasers? How are they mounted?

Here's my latest board version.
Blackout with Eight2Ten products - swap to a monochrome griptape, with custom stencil work on it. Pretty darn happy.

WOW! Thanks for sharing your pictures. This is my first time seeing all of your modifications and I like futureboy's because it looks like my board, the Doubletail. I transferred my V1 sensor to an Onetail so I can have Onetails on both sides. Many people claimed I'd nosedive more because of that modification but it isn't true lol! I would LOVE to use the sensor from a plus footpad because they are larger than the V1 sensor but they are not available for sale yet. Anyway, the flight fins inspired me to install Freeboad's S2 Bindings on the Doubletail so I can carve harder and jump over cracks, tree roots, and curbs. Now, many people are claiming I will break my ankles if I nosedive lol. I like the detachable S2 bindings and it gives my board a double personality lol. Without them, it's name is still the Doubletail but when I put the bindings back on I call my board the Ankle Breaker ha.

@steeve I used a heat gun on low setting to make the tape easier to peel off (be careful not to melt the tape). I read that blow dryers work too also some people leave their OW in the sun for few hours to soften the tape. The challenge for me was removing the plastic covering the sensor it was glued down pretty good (I used putty knife).
-
@ow-miami Looks good! What kind of grip tape did you use?
-
@futureboy
Beautiful Job on the Boards Decks!!
Question did you move the sensor in between the grip tape the board or did you leave it where it was is the back of the board on top of the sensor???
