I was wondering if anyone has any good/bad experiences with certain brands of the dryland floor tiles.

There are a few sites I'm looking at and was hoping someone can add some input and their personal experience with it.

thanks,

I bought several of these tiles and I like them. To make them even more slippery, I sprayed them with SailKote which is a dry lubricant so it's not greasy. Now it's awesome! The friction after spraying them was so small that I once slipped and fell on them in socks. Also, I was very impressed by the stiffness of the tiles as they are all ribbed underneath to make them light, but very rigid. I actually converted some of the tiles into a slide board by drilling and bolting aluminum angles to them. I use standard nylon slide board booties and they work great. I just have to place weights on the corners so the tiles don't slide around when I'm sliding on it. They only draw back is that assembling and disassembling the tiles is not instant. I use a flat screw driver to take the tiles apart.
