Has anyone got any feedback on the Hex clear traction---or clear traction from North Shore?
Just laid some up on my new board. Feels good. Wondering of any reviews before I try it?

I've used the NSI 'Clear Grip' product. Generally, it works good - but I'd prefer it be a bit "stickier"/non-slip. I suggest you try it yourself.

Never used the HexaTraction product.

I have used 3M Safety Walk clear traction tape on my strapless surfboards for the past few years. Works great, good traction without wax, excellent traction with sticky wax, easy to scrape off the old wax with a plastic putty knife. As with other 3M products, it's high quality and durable. Tried a few other clear traction products designed for surfing, etc. and was underwhelmed by the cost/performance/durability.
