Slipmats

Hey I was wondering for all you TT users out there. What are the best slipmats you can buy? And does it actually matter what slipmats u have? I was curious since I havent read a thread talking about them...

I'm not sure, i don't think it matters much.

some are more slippery than others, and there are things you can do to change that, like putting wax paper under them.

these are the ones i plan on getting, just cuz they look cool.

it really doesn't matter too much, just make sure they are really thin. And if you want to, i suggest using plastic scratch mats between the platter and the slip mat to provide even less friction. Scratch mats are thin pieces of plastic, like cellophane plastic(the type thats on a cigarette pack)

yeah, wax paper works too.
