EucatapeEucalyptus Infused Rowing Tape for Men & Women – Heals and Protects Hands from Blisters Cuts Dry Skin, for Strength & Grip Indoor Machine or Outdoor Sculling Crew

Like most rowers, at the beginning of the season, I get blisters on my hands. Mine were from rowing with rubber oar handles, when I'm used to wood. I'm sure my oar handling wasn't great. But to get me through the learning curve and past the painful part to healing, I use this tape to protect the broken skin. This stuff is tough, and stays stuck the entire time. It doesn't come off until I take it off. Rain, sweat, motion. Nothing makes it slip. It was recommended to me by a fellow rower, and it is a very effective and inexpensive way to protect my hands. My only tip is that because it is so strong, I need scissors to cut it, so I can't apply it on the fly. My friend tears it with his teeth, but the eucalyptus makes that a little unpleasant to taste. The smell is great though.

Used this tape tonight for a blister on the space between thumb and index finger. It’s an awkward area and hurts every time I move it. This tape worked great on my rowing tonight and didn’t feel the blister at all! It did come off a little on inside palm, but otherwise stuck well and the smell is great. Will update again if anything changes.

My son is a rower. I got him this tape for Christmas, since he mentioned it was very good. He was really happy to get a good supply of it and has been sharing with his teammates. He says it is hands-down better than anything else out there.

Sent this to my nephews who row crew, and they said it came in handy for several of the guys. I’ve never used it so have to take their word for it!

When I bought this, I was fairly new to long distance rowing and this saved my hands. I had blisters tearing on my hands and fingers, I used this tape to cover my blisters when rowing and was amazed how much it helped. Not only did it help prevent additional blisters, but the Eucalyptus helped heal the ones I had.

The tape stays where you wrap it. Provides some soothing and maybe healing properties. The smell is nice too.It does not tear easily like J&J waterproof tape. I used a small scissors I now carry in my bag.It is surprisingly thin.I recommend this tape over duct tape, surgical tape, waterproof tape.

As a rower, I’ve used this for about 4 years. Over that time period and since my last order in March 2022, it seems a bit less sticky, both to skin and to the tape itself, than previously. (It needs to be stuck only to itself to work) It also seems a bit thinner and less durable. I’ve noticed when ripping it with or without scissors, the ends fray and weaken a lot more than before. Maybe it’s because the tape is a bit more flexible now. Additionally, when on my fingers, the top piece curls and rolls when it meets friction. I do apply the tap 10-20 minutes before putting them in use, as directed, but that really means not using your hands during that time to let it set. My work around has been applying a small strip of electrical tape on top. That being said, there isn’t anything better on the market.

Great product for crew and other sports too! Nice smell.
