    Best Mats for Home/Garage Use?

    I'm looking for a thread if it's already posted about the best mats for home that money can buy. I tried combing the forum using keyword search

    "Mats"
    "Best Mats"
    "Best Mats for Rolling"

    so either there already is a post about this and I didn't see it, or there isn't one and I'm making it.

    Anyone know via reviews vs other mats what the best mats are money can buy?

    Thank you for any suggestions and insight.

    There is a thread with the Gracie mat method. I suppose it depends, in part, on how much coverage you need.

    I've seen the Gracie mat method one, and it was great. But are there better mats than the Gracie mats? And my guys need enough coverage for a full live 100% roll so we don't get our skin planted against the garage concrete.

    Swain flexroll smooth surface. You will have to tape the 5 x 10 sections together is the only bad thing. They are the best I've ever rolled on. I have the 1 1/4. I'm sure the 2" is even better. I don't have room for take downs anyway so it's perfect. When I'm done it just rolls up out of the way. Putting together and taking apart a puzzle mat is a pain. I think Zebra makes a similar product that I'm sure is good as well. I just found the best deal on Swain.

    Are the Swain flexroll smooth surface mats better than a high quality tri fold mat? If so, I think I'm sold.

    at my house i have the 2" flexi roll. mine is a tatami surface. only beef i have is that it's super slick when it gets sweaty.

    Not sure about the tri fold. They do have Velcro on the sides which is nice but they are a good bit more expensive.

    They say zebra mats are the best
    Idk prices but they use those in top level tournaments
    Or just get a single wrestling mat
