QUOTE (Crusty @ Apr 17 2016, 10:04 PM)  Despite being out there ~3 years, there's not a whole lot on it. The most I can find is on another forum where the designer uses poor grammar and hard-to-follow arguments to try and convince a bunch of skeptical old-timers. I'm not quite convinced. Data talks in the engineering world, and I can't find any performance data. That said, there's limited performance data on most matting. I raise an eyebrow at statements like this: "A body at motion tends to stay at motion; this classic "truth" still is constant as the day is long." (quoted from the other forum) The eyebrow raise comes from calling it a truth in quotes....this isn't a "truth", but rather Newton's first law of motion... That said, I'm open to actual data or tests which could sway me. -------------------- Lifetime Member
