Comments: I wish this tape is more durable. With a single contact to the court the tape will tear up, so I usually double up on the scrape prone areas of the head. The adhesive is not that strong, so if you tape it over areas with a moderate bend the tape will pop up. Using a scissors to cut and overlap those not so flat areas help. The Head brand head tape was much better. I have not tried the Babolat brand.

Comments: Application: This tape is not as sticky as the Babolat tape. The Gamma tape keeps popping up and I have to keep pressing/smoothing it. It usually
settles down after about a week. On the other hand, the Babolat tape
sticks smoothly and never pops up. Durability: The Gamma tape is more durable than the Babolat tape. Cost: The Gamma tape is cheaper than the Babolat tape
Availability: The Gamma tape is available as rolls while the Babolat tape is pre-cut, which is not enough for my requirement. Conclusion:
I will continue using Gamma tape in spite of the pop-up problem.
However, if Babolat is offered in 1.5" wide and not pre-cut, I might
switch to it.
