For ten years and counting the Black Mat has been renowned by serious yogis and hailed as the ‘Bentley’ and Taj Mahal’ of yoga mats. It is ideal for yoga and Pilates practitioners looking for performance, comfort and longevity from their mat. Its fabric-like surface finish is not sticky, yet slip-resistant, even when wet from perspiration. The firm material resists bunching and remains flat even when practicing on carpet or with sticky feet. The Black Mat is exceptional for cushioning your spine, hip bones, knees and elbows from punishing hard floors; its durability is superior to other mats.

Summary: HATE this expensive mat!
Comment: This mat is a ridiculous rip off! I cannot even use it as it is way too slippery. I have tried everything suggested( scrubbing, sanding, etc.) and nothing works. Don't waste your money.

Summary: Not Sticky enough
Comment: So I went with the buzz and got myself a manduka Pro. I know a lot of people say it's awesome but I still don't get why. I have been washing it multiple times the way it says on the instructions and after two months - I'm still slipping! I don't care if it's going to last me a lifetime if it means every time I am trying to concentrate on my pose- I get distracted by me slipping. I am getting used to putting another basic mat on top of this manduka - just to get by my class. Is this why I spent almost $100? To put another cheap mat on top of the "holy grail" of mats? So, no- I don't think it's worth the price because the one thing a mat cannot have is that it let's you slip.

Summary: Manduka BlackMat PRO
Comment: I love the mat. The only small problem I had with it was waiting for the film to wear off. I tried washing it off as the directions suggested but it only helped a little bit. After about five or six yoga classes, it finally wore off.

Summary: Very Stick Mat
Comment: I bought this Mat for my P90x routine. I had no prior experience with yoga but read that this was a good mat. Upon receipt, the mat has a REALLY funky smell...no doubt due to it's rubber-makeup. It made my entire bedroom smell like rubber for several days.
After the smell subsided and I began to use the mat, I realized quickly how important it was to have a sticky mat. This mat is very very sticky to the touch and prevents slipping even when I have sweaty palms. I wish the mat was a little wider and longer and I would like to use it to absorb shock when I do other exercises such as plyometrics and kenpo.
All in all I'm very satisfied with my purchase. I would note that this is a very heavy mat and not one you would want to lug around while traveling or back and forth to the gym or yoga studio...I would leave this one in place at home (or at the office) and purchase a lighter mat for traveling, vacation, or the lake house.
