I need your input on something. I want some kind of grip tape to put on my mouse. Has anyone experimented with this? I was thinking about putting the same material they put on top of skateboards on either side of the mouse.. any thoughts?

Umm that material would probably make your hands all rough and nasty. Try putting one of those clothlike bandaids across it, that should help. Perhaps you could also use some medical tape.

The only thing I can think of helping would be hockey tape. But seriously? Like it would be cool to have a hockey taped mouse, but is it really necessary?

Right so.. it's not that the mouse is slipping out of my hand.. but one could get much more control with a more porous surface. In the same way tennis players and golfers will wrap their shit. and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or had already modified their mouse with success.

Not really, when gripping something light like a mouse it wouldn't pull very much.

Using the grip tape used for skateboards is the worst idea I've ever heard. Back when i used to skate a lot my right thumb would be raw from rubbing against it all day

Logitech G3 Mouse is pretty good. It has rubberish sides so even if ur hand sweats it's still easy to hold.

And there advice was to go buy a mouse with better grip instead of putting skateboard grip tape on your mouse if it's really a problem.

Your comparison is kind of unfair, as there's a big difference with tennis and golf vs mouse control. They're swinging relatively heavy objects at high speeds and it's much harder to keep a proper hold on the racquet/club than it is to hold onto a mouse. Unless you're actually having trouble holding onto the mouse, grip tape on a mouse is overkill.

If you do still plan on doing it, I'd say cut out some pieces of a tennis grip and tape those on.

SteelSeries made something similar to what your describing. Be aware that I don't have any personal experience with this particular product though.

Edit: As the above poster says tennis griptape would work wonders if the tape itself sticks onto the mouse, can't recommend you any brands though since its been a while since I played.

Duct tape? I find it absorbs sweat pretty well.
