Ever since i started gaming I've been using the allsop cloth mats, which were ace, but found myself having to replace them often. So when I decided to get a new pad, this time i was gonna try a hard surface mat. While browsing some gaming sites, I stumbled across corepad. After reading the reviews I decided to purchase one, which came 2day \o/. Gotta say im glad i bought one, these things are sooo smooth, espically when you apply the provided skatez. Its made from safetyglass and comes with a Guarntee to last 3 years - which is pretty good considering i needed a new allsop every 6 months or so :).
If any is looking for a new pad, I really recommend the corepad magma.
