Start Grip Tape – attachment tape for classic cross-country skis

See our entire range from Start here!

Start Grip Tape is an easy-to-apply grip tape for cross-country skis that can be gripped. The tape is placed in the ski's grip zone and provides a durable grip that can be used for multiple ski tours. A practical choice for recreational skiing and training when you want to make preparation for your ski session easier.

The package contains a 5-meter roll, which is enough for approximately 2–3 pairs of skis depending on the length of the attachment zone.

Wide temperature range

Start Grip Tape has a specified temperature range from +5 to −20 °C. The wide range of use reduces the need to change the adhesive when the temperature changes between ski trips.

The lifespan of the tape is affected by snow wear and the condition of the surface. Check the attachment zone regularly and replace the tape when it becomes worn.

Tips for new snow

In case of fresh snow, Start recommends two thin layers of Universal adhesive or Grip Tape Cover on top of the tape. This helps prevent snow from sticking to the adhesive zone.
