So I need some new griptape and I was wondering if there was a huge difference between the two, being as black magic is a slight bit more money.
Also on the topic of getting a new deck (i'll be needing one soon) what kind of decks have good steep concaves? I've been skating chocolates and girls for the past while and I was wondering how those compare to other decks as far as concave goes... Thanks
Habitat for a steep concave.
And Black magic for grip, Its about three times gritty'r then jessup.

Jessup, and the Almost, and Darkstar decks I have had previously had steep concave.
jessup is like shit. It has like 1/2 the grip that B.M does

black magic is good but it kills your shoes so don't skate in shoes you want to keep in good shape.

its funny I switched my chocolate deck out with an old speed demons (yeah they did make decks apparently) i had, and i like it much better. My favorite deck was my old marc johnson chocolate, it had great concave flip and pop, but the kenny anderson I have right now is shit compared to the marc johnson i had =/

jessup since black magic will tear your shoe apart
get a AWS or Expedition

Jessup Tape. It has the least grittiest tape(I like that) I have seen but still holds it so it doesn't wear away. It is cheap.

my friend had jessup and it wore away fast
and black magic killed my shoes, then once it wasn't so rough it was too smooth.
i like MOB
