I know this has been discussed before but i could not find it. What is that red tape many pros use for grips on their top hand/butt end? Where locally, and where online can it be found? What is it?

Powerflex grip tape

It's Sportstape gauze tape, completely different than Powerflex tape. It's not available for retail.

Actually, it is available for retail sale, BUT, many dealers shy away from bringing it in. I have two cases of what they call Royal Blue for sale.

You're right, I didn't say that correctly.. They don't have any dealers that carry it, so it is unavailable to nearly everyone.

I have some and buy it at Sportchek in Canada. It's made by Renfrew Inc. I used to get it from the health clinic where my GF works but she got in trouble...lol They also have it here: Renfrew Gauze Tape

Is the tape in that link at IW actually what they use? That looks more like coban than what im thinking of, but ive never really seen it up close.

This looks more like what I am envisioning

Yea, the red gauze came on the Red Wings shaft I won on eBay a year ago. I'd get the blue stuff gauze from you if I could do so. It is not sticky like the Powerflex stuff right? I had to get one of my gloves repalmed because of that crap.
