NHL Tape Jobs
Tape Your Hockey Stick Blade Like Tage Thompson
We are going to review how you can tape your hockey stick blade using the same method as one of the best goal scorers in the NHL, Tage Thompson.
Materials Needed
The first thing needed is the hockey stick. The hockey stick we use in the video is the CCM Jetspeed with the P29 curve or otherwise known as the P92 curve.
The second thing we need is some 1-inch white hockey cloth tape. In the video, we went with the Howie’s hockey tape, which I received as a free gift when purchasing some gloves from ProStockHockey.com.
The last thing we need are a pair of scissors to trim up the toe of the blade or to use to cut the tape if desired.
Before you put this together, here are the key components of his tape job:
Use 1-inch white hockey tape and start from the backhand side of the blade and tape from just before the heel through the toe.
When at the toe, you should pull some excess tape to make it easier to cover the entire toe, but you will need scissors to trim up the toe.
Steps to tape your hockey stick like Tage Thompson
Starting on the backhand side just before the heel, place the tape about three fourths of the way up the backhand side and begin wrapping from the heel to the toe.
While taping the blade be aware of how much overlap the tape has. The tape will have a decent amount of overlap, about 1/4th of the width of the one inch tape.
Once near the toe, unroll a bunch of the tape, make sure it is more than enough to finish the toe. This makes it easier to cover the entire toe with tape. With this excess tape, finish the toe and make sure to press down all edges around the toe.
Remove the excess tape. To do this, pull out your trusty scissors and cut around the toe of the blade.
And that is it! Now that you have the Tage Thompson tape job on your paddle, go score some goals
