I have a great mat I got from Yoga Accessories.
http://www.yogaaccessories.com/Drago..._p_121410.html However, I had a lot of difficulty with my last order from this vendor and wouldn't order from them again. The mat is sticky and thick and great for most situations. However, when I am really sweaty, I slide forward in down dog. I tried to get some fingerless gloves, but those slide on my hands and push down into the soft spots between my fingers, so I have a choice of being in danger of slipping or having my fingers pinched uncomfortably. I am thinking of wrapping my hands in gauze or something like that to see if that helps. |

I have a weakness for mats and have many, including the jade harmony, but the prolite remains my favorite. However, as with many things, this is a highly individual preference. The only way to know for sure is to experiment. Hard to do though, with the high cost of mats etc.

i have a manduka... one of the thinner ones... not the pro... and i seriously don't see the difference between that one and the ones i've gotten at target... well... except that the maduka still looks like new and the other ones would get chewed up and nasty looking rather quickly....
so i guess that is really a plus! i got a GREAT deal on it at sports chalet....
