Pro Grip is EVA foam, High Density IIRC and I believe it is much cheaper bought from medical suppliers (used for making insoles and such like).

It's horrible cheap crap sold expensively to us, it beaks down really easily and looks ghastly after a very short period of time, I refused to have it on my boat (and paid the price on the top reach today) but I'll find something more suitable.
