How to maintain a rubber roof
I own one of each and that's the way I recall it too. It's surprising because it's the opposite of what you'd think by looking at them dry. But other links from a Google search say EDPM is not slippery and TPO is. So, I give up.

Another way to distinguish between the two is to see how slippery the rubber surface is when it is wet. EPDM roofing is extremely slippery when it is wet, whereas TPO is not.
