I have decided to do a blog on Sea Dek vs Ocean Grip. For 5 months I have been using ocean grip. As of a month ago I noticed damage to my Ocean grip where it started to pull away the EVA.
I made a call to Ocean Grip and I was instantly given a run around. Finally I spoke to the owner and he acknowledges the purchase but yet still requests I turn in my recipe before they may give me a refund. So need I say I never got my refund from ocean grip.
I decided to check out sea dek as a second option.
When I received my kit I instantly noticed the difference in thickness of the pad. The texture right away is spot on. I purchased Fauk teak from ocean grip as you can see in my photo that is a sad attempt at Fauk teak. Look green vs gray Eva
I have made the assumption that ocean grip is simply nothing more then a knock off of sea dek.
The letters on ocean grip are very poor. Look at my unfair logo look at the poor sketch out of the logo with all the ridged EVA.
Look at how clean sea deks is vs ocean grip. For machinist: best drill press
I should also state the damage done to my ocean grip EVA; Dillon the owner of Ocean Grip states my ocean grip was damaged due to my style of fishing.... What the heck is this?
Totally over looked the fact he is using a lesser quality brand EVA they are selling it a tad cheaper then Sea Dek but when you realize they don't use the same product and the product isn't the same quality why would you spend 25% less on a product that isn't even the same. Your buying a knock off.
Many who have ocean grip might not understand the difference but I have had both and I currently held both kits in my hand and that is when you can tell the difference.
The customer support and warranty that sea dek offers is unbeatable.
Sea Dek offers more colors, real Fauk teak and they are the #1 company in the business.
Look at the photos with the text look how clean sea dek has there text vs ocean grip.
I should also mention because ocean grip uses a lesser quality EVA that over time it just breaks down and looks like complete garbage.
You know I wasn't educated properly when I first promoted ocean grip, I was under the assumption that both company's used the same product but the fact I was educated by sea dek and they told me that ocean grip doesn't use the same product and they've done tests on it and can verify that it's not the same product.
So my opinion is buy the best product on the market, check out sea dek. If you like I have sea dek in my kayak and I have ocean grip on a 4x4 plywood and you can see for your self the difference when you got them side by side and the prices are close to being the same.
