    If there's nothing wrong with it besides a couple of bubbles you can always get over it and go skate.

    And then there's the magic of re-gripping with your own flava.

    Either way's good.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if the grip tape is coming off...then the obvious solution would be to buy some new grip and regrip the board?...?

    not a couple of bubbles more like one about 2" x 5" and the edge is lifting up too. there was the same happening at the front but a couple of pin pricks and it was pressed out. sucks on a new board aint even beginning to wear. have new grip just hated to waste what was already on the board.
