Bar Tape

Not too bad for a first attempt. You have too much overlap on the drops and not enough on the curve of the tops, where horizontal forces push the tape forward.
Also, wrap the bar ends with more tension.
Which video/guide did you use?

I used this one:

You never know, work and weather permitting, I may get to ride it before Christmas.
Still falling an inch short, but reading some wiggle reviews of that Deda tape, they suggest its shorter than a lot of tapes - that would explain it with my wide bars.

I had the same with Deda tape, I'm using 46cm bars, so quite wide. I ended up getting Cinelli tape this time round, just because it was on offer. It is noticeably longer. Either way I'd be happy with the result you've got.

It does get easier with practise. I buy job lots of "cork bar tape" off eBay - it comes from China/Taiwan and costs about £3 a pair (including bar end caps) It feels nice once on, and it is hard wearing and stretches well when being applied. It is also profiled with a slightly thicker middle and thinner edges for better padding and application. I always have to cut the ends because it is too long.
