Is there some kinda sticky neoprene or what?

Either griptape or a grippy foam top. I first had a foam top, and it was a little slippery, and my new skate has griptape, like a skateboard, and my feet dont budge.
Oh yeah, I wear old skate shoes also.

WakeUpDead, same concept as skateboarding.... grippy surface and the rest is up to the rider

physics g..........physics

your weight pushing down on the board and the resistence of the moving water underneath keeps the board in place.............the foam or griptape keep your feet from sliding around..............that's the one thing I've learned from that class...........that and hot/smart girls are really f^(Ked up..........

It's all rhythm. 16th beats is where it gets tricky.
