Is the top of the board a slick surface?

yes, you need to arch your throws to make the bags land. but this makes it the board bouncy and noisy. these are part of the reasons I returned the purchase.

Unfortunately ours was cracked when we got it. My husband said it was too flimsy and would not play like a real wood one so we sent ours back. I did like the lightness and portability of it.

We just played this today! Was given to my brother in law for Christmas and he is very happy with it. The board is slicker than a wooden one but for the price and/or if you need one you can transport, it is great! Hope that helps.

Hello, The top of the no\\board is plain wood and comes covered in black grip tape. Thank you for the inquiry! TGM

Ditto, surface is smooth and when wet, can be slippery. I would not recommend it for that purpose.

No, the balance board is not slippery due to the "bumps" on the deck. However, the quality of this product is very VERY CHEAP. Within a couple months of purchasing this product it started falling apart. I weigh 191 lb...well within the weight limit and had to throw it away since it was beyond the return period. A waste of money.

It's a smooth surface, but I didn't find it to be slippery even though I used a smooth-surfaced tablecloth.

It seems polished, quite smooth. I doubt that would be an issue. (I have it in a thin elago case, so with that it's a moot point.)

The bottom side of mine is smooth and the top side is a matte type surface.Works for me and I have used it this way for 6 months with no problems.A very high quality product that does not slide around on my hardwood floor.

No, the top surface is smooth.... but my laptop has four rubber feet and doesn't slip off at all.

No. But it is the least bit rough. that is good so nothing can slide fi you use this with a sharp knife.I"m using the board as a vinyl turntable support on top of a floating suspension system. The little roughness is good as the turntable feet won't slide around.To me either anyway you use it this is a win-win. It is sturdy. Has not warped even the tiniest bit at all after being positioned vertically for over a year now.

Hi Ellen,The board I got is nearly identical on the bottom, just without the channel you can clearly see in the product photo. There were no grooves or feet of any kind, just a completely flat surface. Definitely no feet for me - not attached, and not included in the packaging.We've been using this board for a while now and it's still perfectly flat, so it doesn't rock at all while cutting. We've not had any slippage issues, but your mileage may vary depending on what you're doing and how you use it.Hope that helps!

It has a semi textured surface so it alone will not be slippery. The biggest cause of slipping will be grip strength or lack of and stability strength/ fatigue.

Yes, it does. It is a flat surface. Put lots of paper towels under the board, it will take care of the problem.

From the primary user (certified yoga instructor) of the Lifeboard (I was purchaser) -- "The board surface is quite slick, even with tennis shoes on. Having a yoga mat on top helps, but even the mat itself can and does slip somewhat. Have successfully done low-intensity Zumba on that surface but really would not recommend it for that purpose."

Jerry, the case looks slick, yet the borders on the top allows a thin grip. It allows a pretty good grip.

Not at all...in fact, the board is very slick and pieces slide across the board easily...especially the checker/backgammon pieces.

The surface is textured, like a very fine pebble finish. I use mine mainly for putting hot pots on to protect my new Corian countertop, but I have also used it as a cutting board.
