Many have told me how can you just almost 30 for a mouse pad spend but immediately when I had it I knew that it is really good, it also gets its smoothness over a very long time had, it has also not jumping mouse as cheap mouse pads. What I also think that it is good is harder than normal so that it sometimes compensates for unevenness of the table. The enclosed pocket I find actually quite useless, took the mouse pad in your pocket at LAN parties because I thought the mousepad was more sensitive than normal but now I take that with so because the shell almost 10 times as thick as the pad alone. Nevertheless full purchase recommendation!
