Yea, this stuff is not slippery in the least. In fact, it feels a little squishy under your feet. Harder than the neoprene in a wetsuit, and definitely more durable. But not as hard as the black rubber that comes on Supras & older Malibus. I haven't tried the stuff from Cabelas but will go check it out for a comparison. My guess is it's a harder rubber than this. Remember the slick & soft rubber swimstep pad sold by Malibu in like 06 or 07? This is that soft, but not slick at all. I've been rafted up at the hydroplane races & had people walk over just to see what it is all about.
