I use Franklin Shot-tech all the way (for roller ofcourse)

I think it provides the best amount of traction by far, but there almost impossible to find now since franklin doesnt make them anymore. I just ordered a bunch off of a Sports Plus website

i like the shot tech the best. It doesnt slow down my stick but it also has very good grip. On roller pucks the edges are smooth and i just cannot use tape. It feels the same to me as having no tape

I play roller on sprotcourt, use tape to mummy-wrap my blade (completely wrap including toe end), and have never had problems.

There's a guy where I play that uses flooring tape. That grippy tape used on concrete steps. He swears by it, but I've never seen anyone use something like that before

I used to use tape a lot but recently I've been addicted to attack pads for roller. Ice is tape all the way but once i got used to the attack pads for roller anything else just sucks.

I "mummy-wrap" it just seems to me that i cant control the puck as well with out the full tape job, i used to use an attack pad but i thought it felt too "artificial"

Heh....

except for tape most everything makes the michigan (and all related) easy.

I use a franklin shot-tech (and so does the rest of my team) which makes the michigan easy to. The thing is that Being able to do the michigan is only a fraction of the what you need grip for.
