Ice skating

I had the same problem. Go online to the 3m site and order a 2 ft wide roll of non skid. I put mine on in the sun on a hot day. No more slipping, even loading the M/Cs. Good luck.

I went to the lowes and bought these safety strips called Skid Guards.

Has an adhesive backing that will not curl or come off. I got the ones with a thin line of yellow on them makes it easy to see at night. Best thing I've bought for ramps. No more slipping.

Crocs aren't much better than flip flops....

Anyone get a youtube video out of it??...at least you'd have something to pass around the campfire...:B.....Dennis

First of all, flip-flops = invention of the devil himself, designed to send as many souls to their eternal reward as possible as rapidly as possible.

You may have guessed that I don't wear them. There are two reasons for this, one of them being that I've never seen a pair that had any traction whatever when things got wet, or otherwise slippery, and I have an aversion to landing on my keister. Or my face. And yes, this from experience.

So while I have NEVER gone skating while moving anything on the ramp of the TH I've never owned, I have had footwear fail me on the traction front.

Our 05 Raptor had the sand paper grit finish, on a dry day it wasn't an issue but add a bit of water and it could be a crazy slick finish.

I was unloading some chairs it was a bit damp that morning and I had flip flops on and as I was going up the ramp to get another chair blammo right on my keister.

yep, done it a time or two, always treacherous when the ramp is damp going down is worse than up as I usually ride or walk it up under power.
