Hi all

Our boat has stuff that looks like extremely thin camping mat glued round the area your feet end up when youre on the trapeze to improve grip. Its very effective but is getting a bit tatty. Does anyone know where you can get this stuff?

I heard a while back that you can by almost exactly the same stuff at a fraction of the cost from phisio/chiropractic type supliers, might be worth looking into

Don't go mad on the pro grip, if you just want to make slippery areas grippy try sex wax (Google it).
