Is the standing surface slick? I'm looking to work out and I do not want a slick surface. Do they stay interlocked even when jumping around on them?

It can be a little slick but it isn't too bad for working out. That's what I have been using it for and I have never had a problem. It has a texture to it that helps keep a better grip. They do stay interlocked well when you are moving around on them.

I use them when i run at the gym some times, the only issue i have with them is they sometimes slide down a little, but not enough to require me to stop and fix them.

Best to wear grippy socks while tumbling. My daughter has said she finds it a bit slippery otherwise.

Hi Gary, I had a spare piece of 2x4 (about 22 inches long) so decided to test this. Initially, I heard some squeaking, but I adjusted the placement of the 2x4 more towards the front of the machine and that stopped. I noticed a very slight wobble side to side but it seems stable enough. I do just walk at the moment, so I'm not sure if the wobble would become more pronounced if you jog / run/ Even with just a 2x4, the incline is noticeable when compared to yesterday's 'workout. I'm loving the incline - thanks for the idea!

I do not see why. Although my guess is if they get wet, there could be a slight chance of slippage depending what they are being used for. I have them in my basement where I workout, lifting weights. I sweat and drip onto the mats. But I am not running on them. Hope this helps. Good Luck! Happy 4th!

Christie: I bought 2 with the stays, you can't even feel them and there really sib;t much lateral support since they're so thin. Mine, with the stays, do not limit my [Martial Arts] aggressive movement at all and I hardly notice I have them on 1-3 hrs every day.Denny - Chicago

I used these mats on a laminate floor and never had any problem with them sliding. I do P90x on these mats.

They have a very minor rough surface to them. That is also what helps with the anti slip. My 1.5 yr old doesn't have any problems with them and she loves the bright colors.

Lol it gets a lil sweaty but they stay pretty secure as long as u have them tucked behind ur ears well. B-). Ive used mine on the treadmill for about an hour n mine stood in place without any slipping and or falling off. Hope this helped.

I think it would depend on how slanted the surface is and the type of surface. I always lock them all the way but I use it on a flat surface. The legs do have rubber feet on them so I suppose if it's not a particularly slick surface then it may not slide but it's hard to say without knowing what the surface is and how slanted it is.

When exercising there may be some slipping due to perspiration ( sweating ) which could cause the body to glide along the surface of traditional stability balls. Fitter First PRO balls are texturized to minimize this slipping and in my gym I have had no problems whatsoever with slipping on the Fitter First balls. These are my exercise balls of choice for all my personal training sessions.

I would say it's non slick. The rubber seems to grip surfaces rather than slip around on them. By the way if you use the kick stand don't buy this one, this kick stand is flimsy. The overall quality of the case itself is good though.

The back of mine is slick but the sides have good grip so I haven't had an issue with it slipping out of my hands or anything. :)

The wheel has a switch to lock it in place, so you would not encounter any wobbling if that is engaged. I jog (not run) with it unlocked with it having free range of motion. I have never encountered wobbling or shaking nor have lost control, but I limit my use to smooth paved surfaces.

I never had a problem with them slipping at all. Mine are stacked on my desk and have a little lip that sort of locks together. I love them.

HiI donth think i understood your question. But if you are saying would they wigle aroud after instalation, then yes they would a little even at bumps it would shake a bit but not an issue to worry about if you tighten it tightly i wont fall apart it wold hold on. So dont worry. Hopefuly thats your question.
