YOMAD YOGA MAT GRIP TEST
METHODOLOGY
Following the request of many yogis about the quality of the grip of the Yogom yoga mats, we decided to make video tests of a downward dog position on each side of the mat in order to show you in picture but also to be able to compare. In order to make this performance test even more comprehensive we decided to conduct these tests with wet hands and force the position to the maximum in order to show you the grip of the mat for a person sweating a lot.
RECTO TEST
TEST VERSO
RESULT? A NON-SLIP AND ADHERENT MAT!
The peach skin texture of the elastomer foam gives the Yogom yoga mats a great grip making them very anti-slip. You won’t slip!
WHICH SIDE OF THE YOGA MAT IS THE MOST NON-SLIP?
You can see it on the two videos: the side with the wave patterns (grey side on the video) is more anti-slip than the side with the lotus patterns.
AND FOR PEOPLE WHO SWEAT A LOT A LOT?
As you can see on the two videos, the elastomeric foam is very absorbent, which allows people who sweat a lot to practice safely and not to slip. For all the people who sweat a lot: you will enjoy practicing on the wave side more!
IS TPE MORE OR LESS ANTI-SLIP THAN RUBBER?
Rubber is just as non-slip as TPE. The main difference is in the level of absorption and therefore although rubber is anti-slip, for people who sweat a lot the anti-slip effect disappears because rubber does not absorb perspiration. It is likely that you will slip.
WHAT ABOUT PILATES?
We also recommend YOGOM yoga mats for Pilates practitioners because their 0.6 cm thickness and soft texture make them sufficiently cushioned to perform positions that require support on all 4 limbs at the same time, or certain positions with strong support on the knee.
