Location: Louisiana | I just saw a new product, Nebu-Tape is being released this month. I have to admit I'm pretty excited. A pack of 30 sells for $100, waaaayyyyy less expensive than Flair Strips!! I love the Flair Strips but dang $10 per run adds up. I'll be ordering the new ones to try. At that price I can use them on both horses also. Not that it really matters, but they also come in rainbow colors lol. |

Agree. I wouldn't doubt if it is, just cut to specs. |

Location: Louisiana | Got them in today... :/
I'll be returning them. They are a strip of RockTape with slits. A 16' roll is under $20. Geez, at least use your own backing I can't google lol.
I will just buy a roll of RockTape and test it out myself!! |

Location: Opelousas, LA | Sorry, that really sucks to market something like that for such a huge profit margin. I may try to play with some kinesio tape to see if it helps, what a great idea if it does! Best way to really tell is to put it on a horse before you swim them, they are breathing hard but moving slow enough to see if it really helps or not. |

Well they're new so instead of returning them for a store credit, I was able to sell them within 10 minutes of listing on FB for what I paid. $$$ back in my pocket lol.
Yep, I'm going to invest a few dollars in the RockTape, I'm assuming they tested different brands and that one worked best... I'll just get a small roll and see how it does compared to the Flair strips.
Yea they're marked up A LOT... A $20 roll is enough to make about 50. At $3 each... At least the Flair strips are an original design and can't be replicated easily by anyone with scissors haha |

| Yeah flair does have a unique design, and i know that they have a lot of science behind their stuff. does Nebu-tape have any proof it does anything? |

RockTape actually makes specific tape for horses that is supposed to stick better to their coats. But since this is just going on a soft nose for one run I'm not sure it would be necessary to get the equine version since it is more expensive. |

| Wow, I just was on the Nebu-Tape Facebook page asking some questions about the product...and as soon as I asked if they had any science behind it, the whole feed was magically deleted. Sounds like they don't want anyone asking too many questions....just want you to blindly purchase I guess. |
