mouse skates

In a nutshell, dot skates cover less surface area compared to traditional stock or aftermarket skates. This seemingly minor alteration has a profound impact on performance, especially when paired with glass or other hard mouse pads. The reduced surface area translates to less friction between the mouse and the pad, giving gamers and aimers unparalleled mouse speed and precision.

Generally speaking, a 3 by 3 layout is recommended (see above picture), comprising three dots placed on both the top and bottom skate areas. Place one dot on the left, one in the middle, and one on the right for each area. This layout provides a balanced distribution of friction across the mouse's movement, ensuring smoother and more precise control. Alternatively, a 2 by 2 layout is also great.
